Providing
chocolate as
a wedding
favor has
been a time
honored
tradition
for many
centuries.
The practice
of
distributing
wedding
favors began
with the
European
upper
classes, who
had the
wealth to
provide
elaborate
gifts to
their
guests.
Wedding
favors began
as small
fancy boxes
known as a
bonboniere.
A bonboniere
was
fashioned of
crystal,
porcelain or
gold and
were often
encrusted
with
precious
stones. The
boxes were
meant to
hold bonbons
or other
confectionery
delicacies,
at a time
when sugar
was quite
expensive
and believed
to have
medicinal
benefits.
Confectioneries,
primarily
chocolates,
have
continued to
be a
favorite
wedding
favor.

Variations on the classic bonboniere have continued throughout the ages. Elaborate wedding favor boxes are produced from porcelain, crystal, stainless steel or pewter. Designs available from each medium vary extensively to accommodate any personal taste or wedding theme. The most affordable boxes are fashioned from white chipboard, which may have a solid color or be printed to reflect traditional wedding themes. More elaborate boxes have a foil laminate exterior and include embossed designs. Whatever the box design, they are intended to hide a secret gift of decadence inside.
The rich, smooth texture of chocolate truffles have made them an delicate token of appreciation. The elegant simplicity of a single truffle or a cluster of three, is sufficient for a sophisticated wedding favor. Truffles are affordable and easy to find at online suppliers or local candy shops.
A trend in chocolate wedding favors, has been the creation of unique labels for otherwise ordinary chocolate bars. “Branding” the bar with an unique label creates a personal statement from the bride and groom. Smaller chocolate companies that specialize in providing personalized chocolate, can create a mold that will appear to be engraved with a sentiment from the couple. |

Many of
these
same
companies
carry
stock
molds
for
wedding
themed
chocolate
bars and
coins.
They are
able to
produce
chocolate
pops and
three
dimensional
chocolate
confections
that
resemble
traditional
wedding
themes,
as well
as the
bride
and
groom
cake
topper.
The
molded
candies are
produced
from white,
milk or dark
chocolate.
Couples can
select to
have the
molded
chocolates
hand painted
with edible
gold and
silver
finishes. In

of
