Chocolate Menus!


One spunky couple chose to cross two things off their to do list by having edible wedding menus. Yep, printed chocolate blocks. Their menus doubled as wedding favours, yum. This has to be one of my favourite ideas for menus. Printed menus are done to death, normal, and yep, boring! 


Swap your sugared almonds and printed menus for this delicious idea!

Chocolate is just one of those things we all love. Here's a few other yummy chocolate ideas for your Wedding. 

Beware, you may find yourself searching the fridge for chocolate after reading...


The chocolate buffet; the candy buffet alternative. 
I've seen a few candy buffets lately, seems to be the new thing for wedding receptions. They're pretty and definitely delicious but sometimes lacking. Add in some devilishly indulgent chocolates to the mix, guarantee the ladies in the room will be licking their lips. You may be spoiling dinner with one of these so perhaps the three-course meal will be too much with one of these. 
Dessert-Only Wedding Reception anyone?

If the idea of melted chocolate makes you say mmm then allow me to introduce you to the cheapest chocolate alternative. You can hire them and I've even seen them on sale at Kmart from time to time. If I wasn't lactose intolerant I'd have one of these permanently set up in my living room.
My Mum had one at her 40th and the guests were indulging in it all night. It looks gorgeous and tastes amazing. For as little as $40 (for a second hand one) you can add some sexy chocolate to your menu! Why not!


Cocolat (Rundle Street, Adelaide) was the venue for my 21st Birthday a few years back and to be honest, it was amazing. I love chocolate, dark, light, fluffy, hot, cold, I'm not fussed as long as it's chocolate. If your budget allows for handmade chocolate truffles then Cocolat is where you want to go! Place a tray of truffles on each of your tables for dessert as a cake/pavlova alternative. 

Life is like a box of chocolates they say, and if chocolate is something you can't live without, why not include it in your wedding! 

So never mind the hips and just think about melted chocolate on the lips! Your Wedding is your chance to be indulgent, forget the diets and dip another strawberry into the fondue fountain.
