CalExotics Wins 2 Awards at ANME Show

CHINO, Calif. — California Exotic Novelties, received two awards during the Summer ANME 2012 Show.

The Bachelorette Award from Bachelorette.com recognized the best-selling Girl's Night Playful Party Straws.

Vibrators.com honored the Butterfly Kiss with the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Tom Nardone, president of PriveCo. presented Susan Colvin, president and CEO of California Exotic Novelties, with a trophy for each award at the company’s trade show booth.

“It was such a thrill when Tom came by with our awards," Colvin said. "They are both beautiful glass designs and we already have them displayed in our trophy case. Thank you, Tom, for these honors, and for being a valued supporter of our products.” 

The Girl’s Night Playful Party Straws are a favorite for bachelorette parties. 

“Girls with a sense of humor love the straws, and all the cute, fun products in the Girl’s Night line,” said Jackie White, vice president of sales for California Exotic Novelties.

“Now we can say we carry award-winning straws."

Designed to caress the contours of a woman, the Butterfly Kiss is available in a variety of editions, including the newly introduced boxed packaging. The boxes are the result of retail feedback and take up less real estate on the store wall, the company said.

Five designs include the new Bunny Kiss, and they are available in three colors, pink, blue and purple.

“Vibrators.com certainly picked the right time to give the Butterfly Kiss an award,” said Al Bloom, director of marketing for California Exotic Novelties.

“With the expansion of the line and the new packaging, this great-selling item is going to become more popular than ever before. Thank you, Tom, for this honor!”
