The Ultimate Guide to Making Your Own Chocolate Gift Basket

Article Category: Food and Drinks

Author Name: Kevin Lance

What goes into the perfect chocolate gift basket? First things first: it's easy to put together your very own chocolate gift basket if you are a chocolate lover yourself. Then you won't have trouble choosing which chocolate brands should go into the basket and which ones should be kept out. If you think you'll have trouble pulling the act, make sure to check—and remember—the following tips:

1. First: know your recipient. Your recipient's preferences should be your primary consideration. Does she love dark chocolate, or does she prefer milk chocolate? Does she have any favorite brand? Make sure to use these types of information when you go out shopping for the contents of your chocolate gift basket. You can either buy only those that your recipient particularly like, or include some brands and varieties that you think she will love based on her list of favorites.

2. Second: think about the packaging. The fact that it's called "chocolate gift basket" does not mean you have to limit your packaging ideas to strictly baskets. Explore the possibilities. Try other containers like bowls, bags and dainty boxes. A general tip on the basket: choose one that is shallow enough to show the contents better. Also think about the size of the container itself. A bigger size means more chocolates to fill it in, which may not be good for the health already.

3. Third: put some effort into the arrangement. Stay away from straightforward arrangement that make your package look more like it's fresh out of the assembly line. Accentuate it with such fillers like liners, which add depth to the package, or a nice fabric with a soft sheen and in a color that contrasts well with the chocolate packaging. You can also try to fill in the gaps with shredded paper in colors that match the occasion.

4. Fourth: consider the contents. The secret to a nice-looking chocolate gift basket is having a central theme. The central theme is a single item or a group of items that draw attention to it, either because it is bigger than the rest of the items, more expensive, or is simply more unique. Try looking for a single piece of expensive, exquisite Belgian chocolate, for example, or a chocolate-inspired or –flavored item. There are lots of things that you can use as a central theme—from a copy of the movie Chocolat, a chocolate-flavored spa treatment kit, a chocolate bar-shaped throw pillow, or molded chocolate items. There are no limits to being creative. Scatter the smaller items around your central theme to fill the basket with goodies.

5. Fifth: finally, try variety. You can go for a chocolate gift basket filled with candies and all the chocolate treats that your recipient wants. You can also go for an edible chocolate variety, adding such items as bottles of fudge sauce, chocolate dips, sundae toppings and sprinkles to add to your usual candy bars. And you can also go for edible and inedible chocolate treats. Think chocolate-flavored soaps, perfume and cologne, chocolate-colored blankets and what-not's.
