Want your sweets to look like a proper present? This silk Christmas drawstring bag has a smooth sheen that catches the light on a decorated table, so even a few toffees look special. It is slightly taller than our velvet version, which gives room for a small bottle or a stack of biscuits.
The 18 x 12.5cm size suits candy at a children's party, place-setting favours at Christmas lunch, or a quick gift for the neighbour who always shares mandazi. Being durable and light, a dozen of these pack easily in a handbag for church or the office exchange. Tie the cord, add a name tag, and you are done.

Buying guide
Choose the silk bag when you want a shinier, dressier look than velvet, especially for table favours at a sit-down lunch. The extra height suits taller items like a mini lotion or rolled socks. Avoid filling it with anything sticky and unwrapped, as sugar can mark the fabric. Keep spares folded in a zip bag so they stay smooth.
How it compares
A plastic party bag looks cheap and tears when a child pulls at it. The silk drawstring version keeps its shape, looks elegant beside your plates, and survives being opened and closed again, so the bag becomes part of the gift instead of rubbish.
