How to Choose the Right Promotional Lollies
Last Updated: 23 July 2025
Promotional lollies are not just candies. They are also effective and budget-friendly marketing tools that keep your audience smiling the moment you hand them out. If you plan on giving them out for an upcoming trade show or a seasonal campaign, choosing the best lollies is a must! As Australia’s #1 bulk supplier of branded lollies and confectionery, we’ve listed down everything you need to know to choose the best one for your campaign.
Why Branded Lollies Matter
Lollies aren’t just about offering a sugar rush. They are also small, portable pieces of your brand that customers can hold, share, and remember. We’ve seen and we’ve talked to brands in Australia who mentioned that lollies provide:
- Brand visibility: Keep your brand in customers’ hands and minds long after the event.
- Memorable: A low-cost item that fosters engagement without needing digital ads.
- Affordable: An effective, cost-efficient way to make a big impact.
Match the Lolly to Your Brand Message
The type of lolly you choose should align with your brand’s tone. Different lollies evoke different emotions, and matching the right candy to your campaign’s purpose can reinforce your message. For instance:
- Brightly wrapped lollipops are perfect for fun, lively settings, such as festivals or fairs.
- Custom-branded mints suit more professional, corporate events.
- Soft chews have a relaxed and personal vibe, great for casual meetups or community events.
Each choice communicates something about your brand, and aligning your promotional items with your brand’s personality will make a stronger impact.
Custom Branding: Elevate Your Lollies
Customisation is what transforms an ordinary lolly into a valuable brand ambassador. When branded with your logo, colours, or messaging, promotional lollies become an extension of your identity.
Here are a few decoration options for customisation:
- Printed wrappers: Display your logo and brand colours in full view.
- Logo stickers: Apply them directly to the lolly for clear branding.
- Colour-coded packaging: Align with your brand’s visual identity.
At Cubic Promote, we provide expert guidance to ensure your promotional lollies stand out and effectively communicate your brand message.
Durability Matters: Choose Lollies That Last
When selecting promotional lollies, longevity is key. A long shelf life ensures your lollies stay fresh and your brand remains visible for an extended period. Hard lollies and mints are ideal because they don’t require special storage conditions and have a lasting appeal.
These types of treats are great for bulk giveaways, as they are easy to store and travel well. At Cubic Promote, we offer a range of durable lollies that help your brand make a lasting impression.

Consider Dietary Needs
With more people conscious of dietary preferences and restrictions, it’s important to offer lollies that cater to everyone. Providing options that are gluten-free, sugar-free, or vegan-friendly ensures your giveaways are inclusive and well-received.
Clear, honest labelling is key. Customers appreciate transparency, especially when it comes to the ingredients used in products. Avoid surprises and build trust by clearly stating what’s in your products.
At Cubic Promote, we stock a variety of diet-friendly promotional lollies, making it easy to reach a wider audience without compromising on taste or quality.
Trust Your Supplier for Reliable Results
The success of your promotional campaign depends on more than just the product—it also hinges on your supplier. Choosing a trusted partner ensures your lollies arrive on time, correctly branded, and in the right quantities.
At Cubic Promote, we take pride in delivering reliable service and consistent quality. You can count on us to deliver every time.
Test Before Full Production
Before locking in a large order, it’s smart to sample your promotional lollies. Sampling gives you the chance to check the flavour, packaging, and overall look before committing to full production.
This step helps prevent any surprises and allows you to make changes early on. Cubic Promote offers sampling services so you can feel confident about your final product.
Focus on Value, Not Just Price
Cost is important, but choosing the cheapest option doesn’t always yield the best results. High-quality lollies that look good, taste great, and represent your brand well are more likely to leave a lasting impression.
Think of lollies as a brand touchpoint. At Cubic Promote, we help you find the sweet spot between cost and quality to get the best value for your marketing budget.
Consider the Distribution Method
How and where your lollies will be handed out plays a big role in choosing the right type and packaging. Match the product to the setting for better results:
- Events or trade shows: Opt for eye-catching lollies that appeal to large crowds.
- Gift bags or corporate giveaways: Choose premium or themed lollies that pair well with other branded items.
- Reception counters or waiting areas: Opt for small, grab-and-go treats that are easy to display.
Aligning your lolly choice with your distribution method ensures better engagement and stronger brand impact.
