Hi PamelaOry. I stack 8 candies into 6 sets with two additional on top, rounding out the 50. I wrap all in plastic wrap (saran type) and put them inside a birthday card inside an A9 envelope, (5.75"x8.75"). The envelope is slim and light enough to come in at under two ounces, now costing 70 cents. Here's a pic of the way I stack them:

Hope that helps.

edited to add: some people just stack them inside a card but I invariably open the envelope and some fall out. I like to use the plastic wrap, but not the sticky press and seal, as I find that the candies can stick and ravel at the edges.
