Personalised Chocolate Bars

March 23rd, 2010

This weeks tutorial is brought to you from Creature Comforts. Wouldn’t it be nice to give a gift of chocolate, but to make it personalised rather than branded with ‘Cadbury’ or ‘Nestle’ etc. This tutorial shows you have to take an ordinary chocolate bar and make it into something really special. Maybe you want to celebrate a special event like an engagement or a wedding – you could create lots of personalised chocolate bars, all with little messages and greetings on them.

The tutorial suggests you need the following items:

Chocolate bars
Color Printer
Standard printer paper (white, color, or patterned will work) or self-adhesive paper
Decorative Paper (be creative… you could use: graph paper, contact paper, vellum, magazine pages, etc.)
Scissors
Glue (or double-sided tape)
Pen(s) or Pencil(s) for addressing your labels

You need to find chocolate bars that are wrapped in foil with a paper sleeve – you remove the paper sleeve and use this as a template to create your own from decorative paper. You can leave them without a label, or add a label with a message. Either way your new chocolate bar will look [and taste I'm sure] ten times better!
