Fairytale Brownies has some slammin' tasty victuals that will make ANYone happy to recieve. With flavors like Peanut Butter, Toffee Crunch, Espresso Nib, and Raspberry Swirl, your most difficult decision will be which flavor to choose from. To eliminate additional overboard debate, we suggest purchasing a sampler of their "magic morsels" or their Brownie Bunches for larger quantity discounts so that you can split up and package say, with a mug and delicately wrapped in cellophane paper...and no one would ever know the difference! They even offer a sugar-free option.
