Bridal Party

Well, it's that time of year...Wedding Time! With warm weather, fresh flowers, greening trees, and love in the air, a lot of people decide to have weddings. Which is great! I love weddings and I love wedding food. It's free, delicious, and you get to eat it while mingling with beautiful people. But...before the wedding can happen comes the bridal showers. What better thing to have at a bridal shower than chocolate truffles! They are chocolaty, fun, flavorful, and pretty of course.

So, a friend of mine's daughter is getting married an for her bridal shower party she wanted truffles. Yay, business for me, but also exposure and a chance to try new flavors on new people. I jumped at the chance and Andy and I got to work on creating new flavors. We decided on five flavors and a total of about 40 truffles. I will talk about the flavors in my next post, but for now I'll just say they were all a hit. We even had leftovers of which we shared with friends who enjoyed them equally as much.

So this being my first party to cater with truffles, I was not sure how to present them. Andy and I came to the conclusion that we would deliver them in boxes, but then create a diagram of the truffles and which flavors were inside. Andy did a wonderful job of drawing up the truffles and writing their description. I made up a fun business card to display and presto, our truffles were set to go! It was so easy too. Now that I have done this party, I hope for plenty more parties in the future. Weddings are a blast, bridal showers are fun, and chocolate is always good! :)
