Wondering why we chose Lindt Chocolates specifically?
Because it doesn’t give “Halloween candy” vibes.
Other brands are a little tricky to work with.
As much as we love Ferrero Roche and Hershey’s, they’re pretty tricky because they are commonly handed out during Halloween. So let’s avoid those ones that give off “Halloween candy” vibes altogether.
I had to go to check out the Lindt store in person because they didn’t have a lot of selections online. In the store, you can actually see the products and check out their sizes. Just a better experience altogether.
The lady at the store said once you have decided what you want to order in bulk, you can call the store ahead of time and pre-order. Set a pickup date and they will box it up so you can pick it up easily!
Here’s a video on how we put together ideas for easy DIY chocolate wedding favor:
PRO TIP #1: The truffle balls tend to melt so much quicker in the summer. Choose a solid mini bar so it can stand the heat longer.
You can look for other similar-sized chocolate if you are not a big fan of LINDT. Just be sure to check on the size and the thickness to ensure that they still work with the packaging.
We’ve purchased packaging from Creative Bag. We did go in-store, but most of the products are available to order online.
PRO TIP #2: Choose labels and tags that are max 1.5 inches in diameter/long. Since the packaging and chocolates are smaller, you do not want the label to cover the whole thing. The right balance of size is key!
PRO TIP #3: To elevate the look of wedding favors, you can order customized wedding tags and stickers!
This video is a good gauge to decide if you want to go this route or not. Having an idea of the “work” involved in any DIY project you decide to take on, makes it easier for you to decide on it.
Whether it is for your bridal shower, engagement party, and/or your wedding, these ideas will help you figure things out!
Our goal is to come up with the easiest, fastest, most affordable, and yet still elegant options so you can elevate seemingly simple ideas with some easy design adjustments!

EXTRA TIPS
- Consider products that are easy to store, transport, and set up.
- 〰️
- If you are wrapping with ribbons, tape the bottom part (ever so lightly-tiny tape!) to ensure that the placement of it does not move around while transporting.
- 〰️
- If you are adding the tiny bows, use a glue gun (tiny dot!) to stick (push down) those. The bows do not have a flat back, so they will need a cushion-like bed to stick to – which the glue gun provides inconspicuously.
