While I won't be any help with the pricing as I have only done them as freebees on large orders and have never charged for them alone. With that being said I would recommend and get absolute rave reviews with good ol' cream cheese mints. Simple and quite yummy.

Ditto!
I can't be of any help in the pricing either, but If they want "molded" mints, beware. The molds for those are quite pricey and it takes time to get the candies done. HTH
Good Luck!

Now I'm courious....care too share any recipes as I still have no clue what these mints are

I've ate these before. Decent tasting. (I liked the lemon but most people expect the mint flavor.) This recipe came off the internet, so if there's a better one, then please post!
CREAM CHEESE MINTS
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
1/2 to 1 tsp. desired flavoring
Food coloring
2 (1 lb.) boxes powdered sugar, sifted
Granulated sugar
TIPS: Yellow for lemon; pink for peppermint; green for mint
In mixer bowl beat cream cheese until soft. Add desired flavoring and coloring. Gradually add powdered sugar mixing until dough is very thick and heavy, but not dry. Roll in small balls. If you wish, dip in granulated sugar. Makes 130 mints. Keeps in refrigerator 3-4 weeks. Freezer several months.




Are these used as favors? Is it a regional thing? I've never heard of them either. But they sound delicious!

I love these mints. I am orginally from the midwest and they were made for graduations, showers, weddings etc. I have have used my 7 cup food processor to do most of the work for me. I process the flavorings and cream cheese together first and then add the powdered sugar. You may not be able to add all the powdered sugar while processing them in the food processor.
Finish by adding the rest of the powdered sugar by hand.
I roll the mixture out and use small cookie cutters to cut shapes for cakes or cupcakes.
Funny but I was just talking to mom about these this morning. I learned how to make them from her. Oh and I usually substitute peppermint for vanilla when I make them for cake and cupcake decorations
There was another thread a while back discussing pricing.
Oops I mean I use vanilla for peppermint when I use it on cakes and cupcakes.
