Wedding favours and table gifts

2011 wedding favours and table gifts, a photo by Chocoholics product range on Flickr.

We've just had a meeting with some of our Chocoholics Distributors where we launched our new range of wedding favours and table gifts.

As you can see from the image with this post we have tried to put together a range of favours with a common colour theme so that you can dress your tables as attractively as possble.

We can produce the favours in a wide variety of colours and styles and you can view them all by requesting a copy of our new brochure on 01189 321043. The full range will also be available online shortly.

Happy Easter Weekend everyone!

Hope you're all having a lovely long Easter weekend, and eating lots of chocolate!

We'll leave you with this cute little chocolate cartoon...

Happy Easter!

Celebrating the Royal Wedding

We're getting very excited about the Royal Wedding this year. Who doesn't love a wedding (and for that matter, a whole day off to celebrate it?)

To celebrate, we've got a range of products this year to help you celebrate. Whether you're having a street party, a family do or you just want to give something to remember the day by.

How are you celebrating the Royal Wedding?

Wedding colour plans: Gold

Gold seems to be a popular this year for weddings, particular those earlier and later in the year when the weather is cooler. It's no longer an unfashionable colour, thanks to the increasing popularity of vintage-inspired themes and fashions.

We've put together a mood board of some of our favourite gold table gifts for some inspiration. Feel free to pass it on to any brides to be you might know!

All items can be found on the Celebrations page of our website.

Five Valentine's Day suggestions

It's nearly Valentine's Day, and we've had plenty of orders flooding in for our romantic gifts. After all, what girl doesn't love a box of chocolates on February 14th (actually, what girl doesn't love a box of chocolates ANY day of the year?)

But Valentine's Day isn't just about the gift. Here's five suggestions for how to spend the day.

• Book the day off and have a day of DVDs and bonding with your loved one.
• Single? Book the day off with some friends and go for a spa day or hit the shops! We like Wahanda.com for cheap spa days
• Cook together. It's cheap, easy and seriously romantic. Treat yourself to your best tablewear and tons of candles.
• Go on an adventure. Whether it's with your loved one or your best friends, ditch the sat nav and go hunting for adventure.
• Give relationship vouchers. Create your own vouchers that offer to give a free kiss, hug or to do the washing up for a week!

What does Valentine's Day mean to you? How will you be celebrating?

p.s You've got until Wednesday this week to order your Valentine's gift!

National Baking Week: What will you be creating?

Last week, we had both National Cocktail Week and National Chocolate week. If you didn't get a chance to celebrate, you've still got a chance of winning a box of our Cocktail Collection over on Penny Golightly's rather brilliant money-saving blog.

October continues with the food theme with National Baking Week kicking off today. We're big fans of baking here at Chocoholics. In fact, the idea for our popular Cupcake Collection came after certain members of the team became addicted to baking the delicious mini-cakes.

If you fancy dusting off your oven mitts, we've got just the thing. The Wallace and Gromit flipcover cookbook comes with wipeable pages, a non-permanent pen and nut free sweeties to decorate your creation.

What's your favourite thing to bake?

National Cocktail Week and National Chocolate Week

We love October here at Chocolates for Chocoholics.

As the chilly evenings draw in, we like to indulge in a hot chocolate (using our chocolate stirrer), while we curl up on the sofa in front of some of the best TV shows of the year. X Factor, Strictly Come Dancing and the Inbetweeners all feature on our must-watch list.

But the best thing about October, is that we get an entire week dedicate to chocolate and cocktails! The 11th-17th October is National Chocolate Week and National Cocktail Week. Which we think is ideal for a pampering night in with the girls.

We've got the perfect product for the week: our Cocktail Collection. The collection includes ten delicious luxury chocolates with cocktail flavours including Singapore Sling, Mojito, Peach Bellini, Tequila and Cosmopolitan, and it's only £6!

So, how will you be celebrating Chocolate and Cocktail week?
