When you think of Practical Wedding Favors
vor gift? Research has proven that dark chocolate can reduce the risk of high blood pressure, which makes dark chocolate the healthy and elegant choice for your wedding favors. Let’s face it; with anything natural, darker is usually better for you overall. You have probably heard of such sayings as, ‘the darker the berry, the sweeter the juice’, ‘the brighter or darker the colors of vegetables the better they are for you’, and so on. Now we can add, the darker the chocolate, the healthier the heart. So, what makes dark chocolate good for you is the cocoa. Not hot chocolate, but the cocoa naturally found in cocoa beans, which are used to make chocolate. Cocoa helps the body naturally process nitric oxide: a chemical compound that helps the body’s natural blood flow. Flavonoids, a plant compound found in cocoa beans, are also beneficial in the prevention of clogged arteries. Researchers tested this study on a team of men and women between the ages of 55-64 who where diagnosed with mild to high blood pressure. After two weeks of two candy bars per day while balancing a healthy diet, those who enjoyed the dark chocolate displayed a significant drop in blood pressure!
Now your guests can enjoy a double treat with their wedding favors: something sweet and healthy without sacrificing great tastes.
Here Are A Few Ideas For Unique Chocolate Wedding Favors To Consider:
Truffles –
Truffles always work well with any event. A better idea would be to present the truffles in a favor box with personalized satin ribbon tied to a lovely bow. Find companies who will personalize the ribbon to your liking and in script quote your special note.
Chocolate CDs –
Ever think of chocolate CDs? This is the new craze in wedding party favors. It’s a chocolate CD that, of course, you can actually eat. You can also personalize it by placing a special picture on the chocolate and the picture is totally edible. Your guests would be overjoyed with this unique favor.
Chocolate Centerpiece – For your centerpiece, place chocolate dipped strawberries prepared as a bride and groom at each table or the appetizer setting.
Bring Back the Fondue – Get a bit creative and host your wedding shower at the authentic fondue restaurant Melting Pot. Make your bridal shower fun by setting a miniature fondue kit at each table setting for your guests to enjoy dipping fruits, crackers, nuts and even candies as they wish. Place a note next to the fondue kit that says: Have a healthy heart on us! Best yet, the miniature fondue kit can be used later for any fondue dish. Keep in mind when ordering your chocolates the time of year and delivery dates. For warmer seasons, most manufacturers require a 3-day shipping time to prevent chocolates from melting. Be sure the chocolate wedding favor provider you select will adhere proper packaging in warmer seasons and when shipping to warmer climates.
Encourage your guests to be heart smart with the little discovered facts about dark chocolate. Create some cards or flowing words on your dark chocolate wedding favors letting them know how good dark chocolate is for them, and that you wanted to give them something delicious and healthy for their wedding favors!
