Simple, Alternative Gift Ideas with Gold Chocolate Coins

Chocolate is an eternal favorite when it comes to gifts. No matter what type of occasion there is, chocolate are very good (as well as delicious) tokens or presents. There’s even a new fad now called chocolography, wherein colored images, logos and pictures are imprinted on pieces of chocolate --- all edible, of course.



For people who are not capable of spending much on such special gift items, and for those who only intend to give out a few of them, it will be most advantageous if you’ll simply make your own gift ideas with gold chocolate coins. This way, you can put in a personal touch that will make the gifts even more special and meaningful.



The following are some examples of simple gifts you can make out of chocolate coins:



Chocolate Coin Lollipops



Making these lollipops takes no time at all. In fact, your kids can make them with you. Keeping the individual gold wrapping intact, delve through the side of the coin with a toothpick until it pierces through 2/3 of its diameter. Give the toothpick a couple of twists to make a narrow, circular tunnel. Afterward, get a stiff, sharp-tipped, clear straw and insert it in the hole to create the lollipop’s handle.



There’ll be no need to individually rewrap these lollipops since the gold wrapper will be preserved. Distribute the candies in boxes or small baskets padded with colored tulle and a bow, and then you can finally give them out to special friends.



Lego Figures with Chocolate Coins



Of course it would be difficult to use chocolate coins as Lego pieces, but consider the same concept. By piling the wrapped chocolate coins and locking them with toothpick, you can create pyramids, a miniature of the Leaning Tower of Pisa or the Eiffel. You’ll have to be very creative in order to make a figure out of chocolate coins; but all that effort will be worth the gratitude and appreciation of the people you’ll give them to.



Give the Packaging a Personal Touch



There are many alternatives for chocolography that can be done at home. For example, if there are anniversaries, birthdays, and other celebrations for which you want to make tokens, print out circular stickers with images and messages commemorating the event. Stick them on top of plain, individually wrapped chocolate coins.



If you want to take personalizing to a higher level, why not re wrap the coins yourself? Pile a couple or more chocolate coins and cover them in foil to make one thick coin. You can then pack them in gift boxes filled with tulle and tied shut with several thin ribbons. You can make all the decisions yourself on what materials to use, what colors and design will enable you to create unique gifts and tokens.



There are a lot more gift ideas with gold chocolate coins that can be created. Usually, the best ideas are those that come up unexpectedly. Be confident in carrying out those ideas. There’s a saying that goes, it’s the thought that counts; but truly, the effort involved makes a present even more treasured.



If you're thinking of the gold chocolate coins to give someone special, perhaps, it wouldn't matter whether you give gold wrapped chocolate coins or bars or drops as much as it would if you gave that gift from your heart. Look online and start picking!
