Hi Steph,

Happy New Year!

We use a few suppliers whom I find to be really fabulous and tick the boxes, just depends on what you’re looking for specifically. We are also in Melbourne’s Eastern Suburbs. Listed below:

Fastest turnaround I get from Rod Penaluna at Lilydale Safetywear, this is more specifically custom print items: rod@lilydalesafetywear.com.au
Kate from local business Elka Print Management, based in the South-East: kate@elkapm.com.au
NSW Company, Custom Gear but can sometimes access local quick turnarounds: gillian@customgear.com.au

Otherwise:
Chocolates / Lollies we use Claire from Chocoblock, Moorabbin based https://www.personalisedchocolates.net.au/: sales@chocablock.com.au
OR a great cheat for something quick – just print your own labels and stick them on something you can buy in bulk haha!

Hope that helps :)

Cheers, Kim
