Weddings + Chocolate

Posted on February 24th, 2010

Getting Married?

In the midst of all the planning, we sometimes forget the little details.  And the little details are sometimes the most important.  Why not introduce a little detail and shower your guests with kisses on your special day?  Chocolate kisses that is.

Perugina Baci {baci is the Italian word for ‘kisses’} are made with a silky dark chocolate outside, whipped chocolate and finely chopped hazelnut filling inside, topped with a whole hazelnut and wrapped in a love note in four languages.  “You may be one person to the world, but you may also be the world to one person”, an Asian proverb quoted on a little slip of paper inside a Baci chocolate… a chocolate that is wrapped in love and history.  In 1922, Baci was introduced and lovers in Italy exchanged the first of many Baci chocolates; today, 88 years later, Baci chocolates are still being shared between lovers, friends and families.

Do something different for your wedding – share your love and affection for each other with each of your guests with a timeless, classic gesture of true romance… visit www.baciperuginaboutique.com to order your own Baci wedding box.  Each box contains two Baci and the outer box can be customized with your photo, names, wedding date and/or thank you note.
