Chocolate Lovers
I'm having a Chocolate Lovers Jewelry party in two weeks and I'm looking for some ideas...other than the typical brownies & cookies .. as far as food goes.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Re: Chocolate Lovers
How about making chocolate fondue or get a mini-chocolate fountain? You could get pretzels, strawberries, rice krispie treats, pineapple or shortbread cookies to dunk in chocolate.
Chocolate fondue, chocolate covered coffee beans. I like the fondue because you can use cake, fruit, pretzels and other dippers that people could also bypass the chocolate portion.
Maybe find or make some things you don't think about- chocolate popcorn, I don't know what else is out there. I've also seen savory dishes that use chocolate- chocolate rubbed pork is coming to mind for some reason (I think there was an Iron Chef chocolate battle). I'd put out some savory options even if they aren't chocolate.
Don't forget white and dark chocolate.
I went to a Chocolate Lovers Buffet on a cruise: chocolate covered fruits (stawberries, bananas, melons), cheesecake, truffles, cookies, brownies, chocolate ice cream to make your own. You can make your own chocolate covered toffee. marshmallows, rice krispies treats, chocolate covered nuts.. popcorn.
As a PP said, don't forget the different types/flavors of chocolate!
