Salon Du Chocolat, Chocolate Lovers’ Festival, Eurochocolate, Chocolate Rush, Garfield Park Chocolate Show, Ghirardelli Square Chocolate Festival, these are just some of the best chocolate festivals celebrated all over the world. They are usually attended by hundreds of thousands of chocolate lovers. They flock to these events to view and taste fantastic creations from world-renowned chocolatiers and take pleasure in chocolate inspired activities.
Chocolate Party Planning
Now, you do not necessarily have to spend a lot of money to go to these festivals. Instead, think about having a chocolate party in your place. You need not be an expert party planner to make it happen. All you need is a little help and some flickers of ingenuity.
Start with the Menu
Don’t force a sit down, four course meal. Do it just like you would on a regular barbecue Sunday. Serve grilled chicken, pork chops, pasta, and mashed potatoes – anything you are familiar with. Now, the simple chicken pieces and pork chops can be made magical by adding chocolate inspired sauces, like mole, a Mexican chili-chocolate essential. Round it up with chocolate desserts, such as chocolate cakes, pastries, and don’t forget to serve a pile of different kinds of chocolates too. Make sure to have tons of them because you will be using them on games and other activities.
If you want to serve fondue, then prepare fondue pairings, like marshmallows, pretzels, and fruits. Lastly, max out on a variety of drinks that could help clean your guests’ palates.
Stage the Grandeur
Take out your best linens. It would be great if you have chocolate designed-linens. You can line two or three tables with them. One table will be for eating, and the other for chocolate and wine tasting. It can also be a place where you can display desserts that fellow choco lovers may want to indulge in anytime they want to.
Decorate your party area by incorporating chocolate brown colors in your design. Set the sound system and make sure you have great happy music to match the ambiance.
Chocolate Party Fun Activities
Here’s a list of things that you can do at your chocolate party aside from chocolate and wine tasting:
- Game – Who Can Eat The Most Chocolates?
- Chocolate Painting – where you use chocolates and your hands to draw pictures
- Stage an exhibit on the history of chocolates, print pictures and put them on display so everyone could have a look and learn while having fun
- Chocó Poker – Use chocolate pieces as chips. Your guest may take home whatever chocolates they can win.
- Bake-off Challenge – Who Can Make The Best Chocolate Chip Cookie?
- Special cooking demonstration – learn a new chocolate recipe and share it with friends
If you want to make your birthday, Thanksgiving, reunion, or any get together fun and memorable, let the chocolate lover in you come out, and let your loved ones experience a feast that was originally made for gods and kings!
