Why Choose Kathryn Beich Katydids Over Cheaper Candy?

Learn how premium chocolate fundraisers deliver stronger profits and higher participation without breaking the budget

If you’ve ever shopped around for fundraising candy, you’ve probably wondered: Are Katydids worth the price? With tins often priced between $17–$21, it’s easy to assume they’re more expensive than helpful.

But here’s the truth: Kathryn Beich’s Katydids pecan caramel clusters are more than a premium candy—they’re a proven fundraising tool that consistently earns schools and groups more per sale.

Why Premium Pays Off for Fundraisers

Exceptional Taste, Exceptional Value

Katydids aren’t just chocolate—they’re rich clusters of pecans and caramel coated in creamy milk chocolate. That distinct taste creates a perceived premium, so supporters feel great about paying a little more—and buying more often.

Legacy and Trust

Since the mid‑20th century, Kathryn Beich’s Katydids have been a tradition in church sales, school events, and aid fundraisers. That kind of heritage builds trust—critical when families are deciding whether to buy at a higher price point.

Designed for Profits

Yes, the tin costs more—but when you factor in margins, fewer sales are needed to reach your targets. With quietly calculated pricing, organizers often earn 40–50% profit per tin—comparable to or better than low-cost fundraisers that require huge volume.
