Chocolate with your photo: All about personalized chocolate

Who doesn't love chocolate? And now with the use of a technique known as chocolography your digital photos can be printed with edible ink directly onto milk, white or dark chocolate lollies, chocolate bars or pralinés.

  • Personalized photo chocolates are ideal as sweet romantic gifts for Valentine's Day, wedding anniversary or birthday gifts.
  • Photo chocolate is the perfect gift for chocoholics or those with a sweet tooth for e.g. for Mother's Day or a thank you gift.
  • Photo chocolates make great party favors for baby showers, bridal showers, baptisms, sweet sixteens, weddings, bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs.

What you should look out for when buying photo chocolate:

  • For best results choose a good quality digital photo or a print that has been scanned at at least 300 dpi and saved as a JPG or EPS file.
  • If you or your recipient have allergies don't forget to check the website to make sure that the chocolate used is suitable.
  • Remember that chocolate has a sell by and best before date so don't order your photo chocolate too far ahead.
  • If you are ordering in a warm climate make sure the company can ship the chocolate using insulated boxes and ice packs.
  • Check the lead and delivery times for the chocolate to make sure your photo chocolate arrives on time.

Photo chocolate product variations:

  • Some companies print the photo on the wrapper or box rather than the chocolate and will give you the option of buying with or without the content so that you can substitute your own chocolate.
  • Some companies offer chocolate bar wrapper templates allowing you to design and print your own online for a cheaper and instant alternative.
