Finding a wedding favor that guests will love and that reflects your personal style can be a challenge. Thankfully, there’s this beautiful invention called chocolate!!
This delightful edible is beloved by pretty much everyone. With loads of ways to personalize this treat, you can put your unique stamp on your wedding favors. Plus, as I learned in my search for the best chocolate wedding favors that there are plenty of options to suit every budget.
I absolutely love chocolate. If you’re like me, you can skip past to the next section.
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.
Chocolate Wedding Favors
I’ve taken a deep dive into some of our favorite candy and chocolate shops online to find the very best chocolate wedding favors. It was a tough job, but someone had to do it!
Baby’s Breath Kraft Cone
Now, fair warning: this is a chocolate favor *disguised* as a tiny floral arrangement. Nestled inside each hand-rolled cone are chocolate-covered sunflower seeds. Yes, that’s what makes it brilliant. Guests don’t just get a cute decor moment at their seat — they get a snack too. And not the kind that melts all over your table settings mid-reception. We see you, summer weddings. The whole thing feels personal without making you hand-paint 150 favors you’ll regret saying yes to. And if your vibe is more cottagecore-meets-cocktail-hour and less monogrammed-M&Ms, you’re in exactly the right place.
Bride And Groom Dipped Cookies
Will you eat the middle first or save it until last?
Oreos are such a fun nod to childhood and these decked-out, chocolate-covered versions are a great mix of whimsy and sophistication. You can personalize them by choosing the colors of the groom’s bowtie, the bride’s flower, and the bride’s skin tone. Best of all, your guests will be treated to a sweet surprise when they take their first bite and discover an Oreo inside!
Caramel Swirled Chocolate Pretzel Rod
Savory, salty, AND sweet – that’s the magic of a chocolate pretzel wands.
Whether your wedding guests have a sweet tooth or love their salty, crunchy treats, they will adore these beautiful wedding favors. Choose from pretty dip options including white chocolate, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and caramel toffee, or go for an assortment. If you want to go a little DIY, add a with customized gift tag to each wrapped wand with your guests’ names, a quote about love, or your wedding details.
Chocolate Drop Hugs And Kisses Stickers
Hershey’s has got chocolate wedding favors down to a tee. And how smart of them to name their little cylindrical milk chocolate treat a ‘kiss’. After all, most love stories start with a kiss and marriage itself is sealed with a kiss.
Personalize your kiss favors with a rainbow of foil colors and a sticker featuring your own message and an apropos design. Pack them in cellophane bags tied with a pretty ribbon and you’ve got a beautiful favor guests will love.
Colorful Mini Tin Box
This palm-sized little number comes in every shade of “I definitely had an eyeshadow palette like this in middle school,” which is a compliment. It’s lightweight, metal (read: durable enough to survive travel and tipsy guests), and gives off just enough vintage tea-tin energy to feel special. Fill it with your favorite chocolates or handmade treats, and you’ve got a favor that won’t end up mysteriously left behind—or worse, re-gifted to someone’s dog groomer. Extra points for the satisfying click it makes when you close it.
It’s cute. It’s practical. It’s *not* another organza bag with sad almonds. If your wedding vibe leans slightly quirky, slightly chic, and very much anti-boring, these tins let your favors wear that personality on their (metallic) sleeves. Grab a bunch, add your sweets of choice, and make every place setting a tiny surprise party.
Gold And White Thank You Buttermints
Not everything at your wedding needs to be so serious it could double as a tax form. Case in point: these Gold and White Thank You Buttermints. They’re sweet, they’re cheeky, and they quietly crush it as a classy, edible wedding favor—without trying too hard.
Each individually wrapped mint sports a white and gold “thank you” design that nods politely to your guests before melting in their mouths like a buttery little mic drop. They’re the kind of favor that says, “I appreciate you” with just enough elegance to match your champagne toast—but without the budget blowout. Set them in bowls at each table for a little post-dinner treat, or tuck them into gift bags like a tiny, delicious parting hug. Spoiler: they disappear fast.
If the words “thank-you mints” conjure imagery of sad pastel blobs from a dentist’s office, breathe easy. These guys are crisp, smooth, and dangerously snackable (you’ve been warned). Your guests came for the love story—these little mints are the encore they didn’t know they needed.
Golden Square Foil Wrappers
Shiny, sleek, and effortlessly elegant, they make your DIY chocolate favors look like they were handcrafted by a luxury chocolatier with very strong opinions about proper cocoa percentage.
Each wrapper is pre-cut and sized to polish off small chocolates (like nuggets, squares, or any bite-sized perfection you’ve whipped up). The metallic finish isn’t some cheap party-store shimmer either—we’re talking a smooth, mirrored gleam that photographs beautifully and instantly elevates your favor table. These are for couples who understand that the tiniest details can carry the most impact. You could settle for store packaging, but why would you let your wedding vibe get undercut by barcodes?
Wrap your chocolates, then add a sticker or a custom label if you want bonus points. Or keep it minimalist and let the gold do the talking. Either way, your guests get a favor that’s memorable, edible, and doesn’t end up in a junk drawer. Peak wedding favor energy.
Handmade Chocolate Chunk Soap
The words “soap” and “dessert” don’t usually belong in the same sentence—unless you’re talking about this handmade chocolate chunk soap. It looks like a brownie. Smells like a truffle. But spoiler: it won’t melt in your hand or your suitcase on the way to your cousin’s vineyard wedding. That’s the magic.
Each bar is handcrafted using natural ingredients, lightly scented with vanilla and cocoa to give just enough of a sweet whiff without making your guests smell like a toddler’s birthday party. It’s cute and clever, but not scream-in-a-mason-jar quirky. In other words, it won’t embarrass your wedding photos—or your in-laws. And since it’s a soap (a thing that gets used and disappears), it leans firmly into the “no clutter, no cringe” favor philosophy.
Perfect for couples who want something unexpected but useful—yes, a novelty without being junk. Give your guests a little chocolate without spoiling their dinner outfits, and maybe earn a few “ooh, that’s smart” nods on your big day.
Handmade Colorful Cake Pops
There’s something delightfully unhinged about color-coordinating your wedding down to the cake pops. But you know what? We fully support that energy. You’ve curated your playlist, your vows, your seating chart with surgical precision—why should your chocolate favors be any different?
These handmade colorful cake pops are basically edible confetti—only better, because they’re made of actual cake coated in chocolate instead of just being…tiny bits of trash. Each one is individually wrapped and tied with a ribbon, meaning you can go full Pinterest-core without hot-gluing anything. And since they’re handmade, no two are exactly alike—which makes them kind of poetic, if you’re into that sort of thing. But if you’re just here for “chocolate on a stick = happy guests,” they’ve got you covered too.
Give your wedding favors a personality—ideally one that tastes like birthday cake and looks like it’s wearing a party outfit. Bonus: they come in a variety of colors and can be customized to match your wedding palette, or general vibe (chaotic pastels? moody jewel tones? both?). These cake pops aren’t just pretty. They’re personal, practical, and gloriously perishable—unlike the monogrammed coasters no one asked for.
Handmade Sunflower Chocolate Pretzels
Someone out there looked at a pretzel, a sunflower, and a chocolate bar and thought, “Why not all three?” Fortunately for the rest of us, that fever-dream of a combo somehow *works*. These handmade sunflower chocolate pretzels are blooming with charm — pun fully intended — and somehow still manage to taste as good as they look.
Each one is a salted pretzel rod dipped in rich milk chocolate, then topped with a cheerful fondant sunflower that’s just the right amount of kitsch without veering into “Pinterest fail” territory. Unlike 95% of decorative edibles, these actually taste delicious. The whole thing is handmade, individually wrapped, and comes in sets as small as 12, which makes them a no-brainer if you’re trying to add a personal (and edible) touch to your wedding favor table without adding hours of DIY to your life.
They strike the perfect balance between sweet and salty, playful and pretty — aka exactly the energy you want your guests leaving with. Bonus: they won’t melt into sadness before the end of your reception and nobody’s going to leave theirs behind “on accident.” These are the kind of favors guests actually *thank* you for later.
Hot Cocoa Test Tube
This Hot Cocoa Test Tube isn’t just a drink; it’s a fully sanctioned excuse for grown adults to behave like cozy chemists at a wedding. And yes, it’s just as charming as it sounds.
Each glass tube is filled with high-quality hot chocolate mix and real mini marshmallows, sealed with a cork like it came straight from an artisanal apothecary. It hits that perfect balance of cute and classy, and—let’s say it—doesn’t scream *Pinterest basic*. Guests can just add hot milk (or whatever milk-adjacent liquid they swear tastes “exactly the same”), stir, and enjoy. Ideal for a winter wedding, sure—but frankly, it works any time you want to channel fireside-vibes-with-benefits.
If you’re looking for a favor that guests will actually use—and possibly even post about—a hot cocoa test tube delivers the warm fuzzies without cluttering anyone’s home. And let’s be honest: it’s way better than another monogrammed bottle opener.
Individually Wrapped Decadent Cocoa Spheres
Melt-in-your-mouth, say-can-eat-this-daily velvet.
Each chocolate orb is glossy on the outside, smooth and luscious on the inside—think truffle-like texture without the overly rich guilt trip afterward. They come individually wrapped in metallic foil, which sounds minor until you realize how much easier cleanup is when guests aren’t juggling sticky napkins of half-melted anything. Bonus: the packaging actually looks great on a reception table, no weird DIY required.
Perfect for couples who want to say “thanks for coming” without saying “this cost us too much,” these cocoa spheres strike the balance between affordable and tastefully indulgent. No forced personalization. No edible photo prints, thank god. Just solid, crowd-pleasing chocolate with enough grown-up elegance to pass as a thoughtful gesture. You eat it, you move on—no clutter, no regrets. Isn’t that what we all want from a favor?
Milk Chocolate Wedding Favors
These smooth, melt-in-your-mouth milk chocolate squares are the favor equivalent of a perfectly tailored suit—timeless, universally loved, and surprisingly affordable. Each piece is wrapped in gold foil and sealed inside a white and gold paper sleeve that politely says “thanks for coming” without making it weird. You can customize the sleeve with your names, wedding date, or a short message if you’re feeling poetic (or punny—zero judgment). The vibe is simple but chic, like if your wedding had a signature cocktail and also knew when to shut the party down before anyone cried.
Order them in sets of 24, perfect for scaling up or down depending on your guest list—and how many “yes with a plus-one” RSVPs you secretly hoped would flake. These are easy to toss in a favor basket, set at each seat, or sneak into your own clutch if you get snacky mid-speech. Practical, pretty, and—most importantly—actually delicious. Your guests won’t leave these behind.
Mini Ceramic Fondue Cup
Some guests head for the chocolate fountain like it’s a religious experience. Give them a mini version to take home — minus the sticky elbows and social anxiety — with this adorable Ceramic Fondue Cup.
This petite porcelain genius is basically a self-serve chocolate spa. Add a tealight underneath, drop in some good chocolate (none of that waxy candy coating nonsense), and voilà — each guest gets their own personal fondue moment. Ideal for dipping strawberries, marshmallows, or whatever feels appropriately celebratory and Instagrammable. It’s charming without trying too hard, and useful enough that it won’t end up “accidentally” left on the reception table.
Translation: instead of another dusty trinket, you’re giving your guests a wedding favor they might actually use on a cozy night in. Or at least brag about owning. Either way, it’s a wins-all-round kind of gift — low effort, high delight, and stylishly on theme with your chocolate-fueled celebration.
Peppermint Marshmallow Chocolate Spoons
Your hot cocoa just RSVP’d to the wedding—because now it comes stirred with a peppermint marshmallow chocolate spoon. Yes, it’s a lot in one bite. And no, we’re not complaining.
These swirly little numbers are festive as hell without being over the top. Each spoon is dipped in Belgian milk chocolate, topped with peppermint chunks, and finished off with a fluffy marshmallow that slowly melts into any warm drink like a tiny edible love letter. It’s the kind of favor guests will actually *use* (read: devour), ideally before they even leave the parking lot.
Individually wrapped for maximum cuteness and zero cocoa spillage risk, they’re the kind of practical-meets-delicious detail that quietly says, “Yeah, we thought this through.” Minimal effort on your part, maximum cozy vibes for your guests. Plus, let’s be honest—no one remembers how the salad was plated, but they’ll remember this spoon.
Pink Heart White Chocolate Fortune Cookies
These *pink heart white chocolate fortune cookies* are dipped in glossy white chocolate, finished with a flurry of pink candy hearts, and they actually look like they were made for a celebration, not a takeout box.
The real magic? Each cookie cracks open to reveal a customizable fortune. That means you can sneak in a thank-you note, an inside joke, or your favorite bad pun about love. (No one’s stopping you from writing “We’re so *fortune*-ate to have you.”) It’s a detail that feels personal without being time-consuming, and yes, they taste as good as they look. Individually wrapped, so they won’t crumble in transit—or in your wedding tote full of questionably useful emergency items.
Give your guests something they’ll actually open, laugh at, and maybe eat before they even leave the table. They’re cute, clever, and just the right amount of chaos in cookie form. Very on brand for a wedding celebration, if we’re being honest.
Plexi Chocolate Keepsakes
Each piece features a luxe Belgian chocolate square (yes, actual good chocolate) framed in a sleek plexiglass rectangle. You pick the color theme and personalize the text — a monogram, wedding date, short quote, whatever cheeky or heartfelt detail suits your vibe. The result? A favor that says “we put thought into this” without shouting it. Your guests won’t re-gift it or forget it in a napkin at Table 14. They’ll ooh, they’ll ahh, then they’ll eat it. The perfect lifecycle of a wedding favor.
Bonus: they come individually wrapped, which means no melting mishaps en route and no awkward chocolate finger situations at your reception. Presentation: flawless. Impact: memorable. Taste: obviously, delightful. It’s a rare win-win-win in the world of wedding favors — form, function, and creamy confection all checked off.
Rustic Chocolate Keepsake Card
There’s a fine line between rustic charm and “I found this in a barn.” This *Rustic Chocolate Keepsake Card* knows exactly where that line is. This is a square of chocolate so pretty you’ll hesitate to eat it. (But you will. You absolutely will.)
Each piece starts with Belgian milk chocolate, rich and smooth enough to make even Aunt Linda stop talking about her cleanse. The bar nestles inside a recycled kraft card printed with a personalized message—your names, wedding date, a thank-you, or whatever heartfelt sentiment you muster after cake tasting number seven. The whole thing is sealed in a compostable envelope, which means you can feel good about giving guests something indulgent *and* environmentally conscious. Yes, it’s chocolate with a moral compass.
Perfect for couples who want their favors to be equal parts sweet, sustainable, and stylishly un-fussy. It’s a small gesture, but one that says, “We care… and we also have excellent taste in chocolate.”
Rustic Turkish Coffee Box
This Rustic Turkish Coffee Box is not for the faint of palate. We’re talking bold, bittersweet espresso vibes wrapped in chocolate, presented in a box that’s halfway between old-world ritual and your chic Pinterest board.
Each wooden chest includes two blocks of rich Turkish coffee chocolate and a reusable espresso cup made from — wait for it — actual coffee grounds. It’s a sustainable flex and a conversation starter in one. The whole setup feels like unearthing a treasure from a bazaar, only your guests get to unwrap it at Table Seven between the toasts and dancing. Rustic, yes, but not in that tired, burlap-and-baby’s-breath way. Think moody cafés, copper cezves, and desserts that don’t apologize for being extra.
If you’re into favors that will be remembered and not just recycled, this one does the job — and looks excellent doing it. Bonus: there’s no way your aunt is re-gifting this.
Salted Maple Praline Lollipops
These lollipops are the edible equivalent of a raised eyebrow: rich Belgian chocolate swirled with buttery praline, finished with just enough sea salt and maple to make someone pause mid-bite and say, “Wait, *what* is this magic?” They’re handmade, elegantly wrapped, and frankly far too good to be called a ‘favor’—but here we are, raising the wedding game. Bonus: they’re compact, mess-free, and we’re willing to bet not a single one gets “forgotten” at the table.
Perfect for couples who want to skip the tired candle or coaster routine and give guests something they’ll actually remember (and maybe sneak into their bag for the drive home). These lollipops don’t just say thank you—they say, *we have taste.*
Sprinkles And Chocolate Pancake Mix Cone
File this under: “Wait, that’s a wedding favor?” Yep. Somewhere between genius and diabolical lives this *Sprinkles and Chocolate Pancake Mix Cone*—a dessert disguised as an activity disguised as a whimsical thank-you gift. Guests won’t know whether to eat it, admire it, or beg for your caterer’s number. Fair warning: this might upstage the cake.
Inside the clear cone-shaped packaging lives a full-blown breakfast party—rich cocoa pancake mix layered with rainbow sprinkles and mini chocolate chips. It’s visually adorable (hello, Instagram bait) and surprisingly practical. All your guest needs is water, a pan, and the willpower to not eat the chocolate chips straight from the cone. Stackable, portable, and ironically elegant for something that feels like brunch at a kid’s birthday party, it hits that sweet spot between playful and polished—which is an achievement when you’re literally gifting pancakes.
If your wedding vibe is “not trying too hard but still nailing the details,” this is your favor. It’s edible, low-key nostalgic, and mercifully not another tiny candle. Honestly, if breakfast-for-dessert was your love language? This is how you speak it fluently.
Wedding Photo Peanut Butter Minis
These Wedding Photo Peanut Butter Minis are unapologetically cute, borderline ridiculous, and entirely delightful. Each mini jar comes with a custom label featuring the happy couple’s smiling faces, because if there’s one thing better than peanut butter, it’s peanut butter with a side of marital bliss.
At 1.5 oz each, they’re portable, spreadable, and just the right size to slide into favor bags or place settings without looking like you tried *too* hard. The real win here is that no one’s going to forget them. Unlike yet another cork bottle opener or some monogrammed mason jar no one asked for, these little jars are edible, personal, and actually fun. And while the outside is all charm, the inside is legit creamy peanut butter. Not novelty-grade. The real, need-a-glass-of-milk kind.
They’re the perfect mix of sweet, salty, and sentimentality—basically your entire wedding vibe in a jar. Bonus: They double as a built-in excuse to keep talking about your photos. “Oh these? Just our faces… on peanut butter.”
Winter Wonderland Cocoa Pouch
Each snowflake-covered pouch is filled with rich, creamy sipping cocoa—yes, real hot chocolate, none of that sad brown powder pretending to be a treat. The packaging is as charming as a December morning and exponentially more useful than a mini photo frame with your initials on it. Think about it: it looks festive, fits seamlessly into a winter wedding vibe, and gives your guests something cozy and genuinely enjoyable. It’s the edible equivalent of a warm hug, without the forced small talk.
Practical, pretty, and politely not trying too hard. Just the kind of favor your guests will actually remember… and might lowkey wish they’d grabbed two of.
With your chocolate wedding favors ordered, you can relax knowing that guests are going to love the thoughtful, edible thank-you gift you’ve selected. Just one word of caution for those amongst us that have a hard time with temptation – make sure you don’t get into those favors before the big day, or you may have to reorder!
