Wedding reception favors add a touch of elegance and good taste to the bridal gathering. Typically, wedding reception favors adorn each guest’s place setting and are one of the first things they enjoy which makes them an important part of the overall ambiance. While truffles, cake pops or candy bars are ordinary choices, brides looking for that unique touch of whimsy and fun in this time-honored custom will find handcrafted, gourmet chocolate specialties by Chocolate Pizza Company to be just the ticket.
The chocolatiers at Central New York’s largest chocolate maker produce a wide variety of wedding favors but there are definitely three that top the list for elegant creativity – “Tux & Gown” pretzel pair, the “Lace & Pearls” mini Chocolate Pizza, and mini Candy Avalanche Chocolate Pizza.
“Tux & Gown” transforms 2 eight-inch salted pretzel rods into the happy couple with some hand-decorated chocolate magic. The “groom” is dipped in white chocolate with a dark chocolate tux coat, buttons and bow tie for a dapper look that impresses on its own. But as impressive as the “groom” pretzel is it won’t hold a candle to the “bride’s” gown. Her pretzel rod is dipped in creamy white chocolate with white chocolate drizzle that holds delicate sugar bead work that shouts elegant. Packaged together in clear cellophane, the “Tux & Gown” pretzel pair instantly reinforces the beautiful celebration that is taking place. It’s “His & Hers” wedding reception favors that guests will love.
“Lace & Pearls” mini Chocolate Pizza takes that whimsical elegance to one of Chocolate Pizza Company’s signature tastes. Chocolate Pizza is a blend of gourmet chocolate – the highest quality Swiss-style milk or dark chocolate available – and homemade English toffee that is made on-site in small batches from a local recipe that dates to 1919. The toffee adds texture and taste to the velvety smooth chocolate and forms the “crust” of the Chocolate Pizza. The mini size is 1 ounce of that magical blend poured into rounds. For the “Lace & Pearls” effect, chocolatiers swirl chocolate over the top of the mini Chocolate Pizza and add silver sugar beads and sugar pearls. The favor is sealed in clear cellophane and an organza bow adds a finishing touch.
Where “Lace & Pearls” is quietly elegant, its counterpart mini Candy Avalanche Chocolate Pizza is loud, bold and fun. This wedding crasher lands on guest’s place-settings with a kaleidoscope of color and substance. It’s impossible to miss and that’s half the fun. The Candy Avalanche part of this wedding favor buries the top of the mini Chocolate Pizza with an overload of colorful candy favorites. Pieces of popular candy bars, chocolate gems and mini peanut butter cups crowd atop this one-of-a-kind offering that adds a drizzle of white chocolate for its final excess. Weighing in at a respectable 2 ounces, this is definitely not your ordinary wedding reception favor.
