Being that the Purim story speaks so much about kings and queens and the royal palace, many people like to dress up as royal members of the palace.
The rich and luxurious connotation of red velvet is often associated with royalty. With that in mind, we designed this Red Velvet Mishloach Manos.
When incorporating the red velvet biscotti into this mishloach manos, we packaged them in a regal and decorative way to go along with the theme. There is something so rich looking to these red velvet bags and ribbon and to the wax seal, which gives it it’s final touch.
