Our story

One family. One Brentwood kitchen.

Vivid Delights is a family-run business. Every jar, every fudge box, every cone is hand-filled by us on the day it ships. Nothing sits on a shelf. Every label is printed the same day, with the recipient's name, your message, and a "signed from" that turns a jar of sweets into a thank-you.

Our sweets come through a UK confectionery wholesaler, from makers you will know, and the jar builder names the maker on every sweet. The fudge is packed by hand. The cart, when she's hired, is wheeled into the venue and styled by us, in person.

For every occasion

Shop by occasion

Whether it is a wedding for two hundred, a thank-you to a hundred clients, or a child's first big birthday, we have a jar for the moment.
