Why Give Chocolate as Wedding Favors?

For those who need a little convincing, here are a few reasons to make chocolate your choice for wedding favors:

(Almost) Everybody loves chocolate: It was hard to find concrete stats, but several sources suggest 9 out of 10 people enjoy this sweet confectionary, making it a rockstar wherever it shows up.
It symbolizes love and romance: If words aren’t your forte, chocolate is the next best way to say ‘I love you’, hence the 58 million pounds of chocolate sold the week of Valentine’s Day 2018 in the US alone!
There are plenty of options: Milk, dark, white, with nuts, with fruit, as a hot drink – chocolate comes in many varities. Pick what best suit your style.
It’s delicious: This may be stating the obvious, but there’s something to be said for a thank-you gift that everyone will look forward to devouring!

Edible Wedding Favor Trend

These days, more and more couples are giving away edible treats as wedding favors. It’s a great way to say thank-you, while ensuring you’re not adding to the collection of things you guests will just ‘Kon Mari’ out of their house in six months. With plenty of customization options, edible favors can capture your unique style.

Considerations for Chocolate Favors

While I could come up with a list a mile long of reasons to choose chocolate for your wedding favors, there are a couple of things to take into consideration.

If you’re planning an outdoor wedding reception in the dog days of summer, you’ll want to choose a chocolate favor that’s not likely to melt. M&Ms are a good option.
If any of your guests have a severe peanut or nut allergy, you’ll also want to take this into account. Most chocolate makers can’t guarantee that their products are nut-free, even if nuts aren’t actually in their product. That’s due to other nut products having been made in the same factory. If that’s the case, a candy buffet (see #10) with a few clearly labelled chocolate options in the mix may be the way to go.
