When planning an event, every detail counts. From the look of the table to the guest experience, it all adds up. Lollies might seem small in the grand scheme of things, but for many organisers, they’re a crowd favourite that brings people together. The right selection can add colour, spark nostalgia, and give guests something fun to enjoy or take home.
At Candy Co, we make it easy for event planners across New Zealand to sort sweets without the stress. With fast dispatch, a wide selection, and fair pricing, we’re here to help you make it work, whether you're prepping for 30 guests or 300.
1. Why Bulk Lollies Are a Smart Move
Choosing to buy bulk lollies NZ-wide makes sense for more than one reason. It’s easier to coordinate quantities, keeps the cost per piece lower, and gives you a much bigger range to work with. Instead of hopping between stores trying to find what fits your theme or budget, you can place one order and move on to the next task.
Our collection includes over 500 lolly types, so you can cater to different age groups, flavours, and dietary needs in one go.
2. Perfect for All Kinds of Events
Some sweets suit casual birthdays. Others are more polished for weddings or branded for work functions. Candy Co’s range lets you choose the tone without starting from scratch each time.
Here’s what works well for different occasions:
- Weddings: soft pastels, mints, foiled chocolates, clear-wrapped sweets
- Corporate events: individually wrapped lollies in brand colours, mint options for table settings
- Kids’ parties: gummy snakes, rainbow lollies, sherbet favourites
- Community fundraisers or school events: large-value packs, nut-free or gluten-free options
You’ll also find seasonal packs curated for events like Halloween, Christmas, or Valentine’s Day. Best for planners who want something time-specific without having to mix and match manually. If you’re building a lolly buffet or filling dozens of lolly bags, check out our full bulk range here.
3. Planning Gets Easier With Fast Turnaround
There’s enough to think about when organising an event, so it helps when suppliers keep things simple. Candy Co’s standard 2–3 business day turnaround means you can sort your sweets without locking things in too far ahead.
Orders are packed and sent quickly, so you're not stuck waiting or wondering if your lollies will show up on time.
4. No Need to Compromise on Range or Quality
Just because you’re ordering in bulk doesn’t mean you’re limited to a small selection. Candy Co offers one of the widest online lolly ranges in New Zealand, with classic picks and colour-sorted collections.
You’ll find:
- Wrapped lollies for food safety or takeaway gift bags
- Colour-themed mixes for coordinated décor
- Bulk candy boxes ideal for high-traffic events
- Retro options that add a playful or nostalgic feel
There’s also the option to filter by flavour, colour, packaging, or dietary preference so you can sort through the full range without wasting time.
5. Built for Event Planners, Not Just Bulk Buyers
At Candy Co, we work with planners, businesses, schools, and families who’ve got a lot on their plates. From one-off celebrations to stocking up for regular events, there's no need for special logins or wholesale accounts. Just pick what you need and go.
We also keep pricing straightforward and fair. If you spot the same lollies for less somewhere else, let us know. We're happy to match it!
6. Local Service, Local Shipping
Our warehouse is based in New Zealand, and our team understands what local events need. We’ve packed orders for weddings in the Wairarapa, expos in Auckland, school discos in Christchurch, and everything in between.
Because we ship from within the country, there’s no risk of international customs delays or missed deliveries. What you order is what you get, and it’s sent straight from our shelves to your door.
