I bake a small challah in a pretty pan (gold and brown disposable) and send it with a bottle of grape juice or wine. It is used for the seuda and looks nice.

I'd love to give real food, as opposed to junk food, but I need about a week to prepare all of mine, and no real food will stay good that long. I usually dump a few snack bags plus an orange into a balloon. It takes 5-10 minutes to blow up and stuff and tie each balloon, so we do a few each evening for the week before purim.

Ooh, I love this idea! I wish I could find such a balloon filling device somewhere.

calaflower, to me "iced coffee" means the single serving J&J Iced Cappuccino in the rectangular box. I would refrigerate them because they taste better cold, but they are "shelf stable" until opened (I.e. they don't really need to be refrigerated). They can be pricey ($1.50/each) but our grocery gives a discount if you buy it by the case.

I have also done kosher dunkin donut munchkins & a chocolate milk which everyone loves.

Thanks! Yes, it's pricey, but if you don't put in much else, I guess it ends up equaling out... I guests curricular milk would be around the same price, especially bc many if the people we give to only eat Cholov Yisrael
