Choosing Great Fantasy Chocolate Boxes

By Serena Price


People who give fantasy chocolate boxes to people they love usually have many different options. You can include a wide range of treats when a collection such as this is customized for you. Many people enjoy the flavor of rich, dark cocoa but what each person likes may be different. Whether you are giving a gift on a romantic occasion or to celebrate a graduation or birthday, you can communicate your feelings with these presents.

Cakes, ice cream, fruity desserts and sugary pastries all seem to be more exciting when they have a little dark cocoa added to them. You can indulge every gourmet wish the recipient has when you are getting them a collection of treats. Persons who really like nuts can have their chocolates customized to include pecans, peanuts, almonds, pistachios, walnuts and pralines.

People who enjoy having a little alcohol often add it to cakes, puddings and ice cream as flavoring. They may even rely on it when cooking poultry, beef, venison and pork. People who enjoy chocolates sometimes appreciate a bit of alcohol in those too. If you are including truffles in gift boxes, mix some bubbly champagne or fruity cognac in the mix. Their faces will light up with pleasure if they like these combinations and they will savor the flavor.

Mint is commonly used in most treats in this category. However there are several unusual spices you should try as well. Ask the sweet shop to add nutmeg or cumin to smooth balls. These will attract people who enjoy rare or unusual snacks. Like ground cinnamon or cloves, cumin is one of those spices that is difficult to disguise. It is noticeable in any dessert.

If you know that the person you plan to gift likes caramel, fantasy chocolate boxes with this ingredient will be a hit. Caramel and cocoa taste great in bars, squares and truffles. Add a combination of their favorite nuts, finely chopped, in order to make these treats truly perfect. Mix those with plain milk or bitter orbs and your present will be unforgettable.

People who enjoy having salty snacks at nay time of day may also appreciate having those with a rich, dark creamy covering. Popcorn is a favorite among children and adults. Salty potato chips are enjoyable too and both of these taste good with a smooth, outer layer that is rich in cocoa. The smooth exterior is the perfect complement to the crunchy interior.

Fudge that tastes as though it was made by someone with a lot of love in their heart for the person who will receive it is a beautiful gift. Persons who receive this will treasure it. Consider requesting peanut butter and coconut as combinations or strawberries, blackberries and cheesecake. Add candied fruit as well to make eating this snack a more pleasurable experience.

People sometimes like all sorts of unique shapes in fantasy chocolate boxes. For example, they may enjoy shark teeth, turtles or butterflies. It all depends on the tastes of the person. You should carefully consider what they will like before requesting a specific style. Some people are more conventional and will better appreciate regular circles or stars.
