Chocolate Candy Bar Cards
A "Noteworthy" Idea

I discovered the fun of making chocolate candy bar cards for special people in my life back in my college days.

I'm not about to admit how long ago that was, so don't even ask! :) But some things are pretty timeless, and I think spoiling someone with a chocolate creative gift is one of those things.

It didn't matter if it was a roommate, a boyfriend, or a teacher that had been a great help. Chocolate candy bar cards were a great inexpensive way for a "poor college student" to show their gratitude, friendship, or affection.

All these years later, I still indulge in a bit of candy bar card making for the special people in my life. They never fail to make someone's day and bring a smile!

I will give you an example of what kind of candy bar card ideas I'm referring to, and then you can come up with some witty ideas of your own and share them with the rest of us by using the form at the bottom of the page.

First of all, you need to stop at the candy aisle of your local store. That is a real hardship, I’m sure. :)

Brand name chocolate candy is ideal for chocolate candy bar cards. As you look over the selection, think of how you could use the brand name in a sentence. You may have to black out a letter or two in some cases.

You can purchase your favorite chocolate candy bars at your local grocery store or Walmart, or wherever you can get the best price. If you don't want to go shopping, just order online and have them delivered. :)

Here's an example of a card I might make for my sweetheart from my college days. He also happens to be my husband. :)

Dear Don,

You are such a Hunky guy. (blacked out the c in Chunky)

I just wanted to Take 5 minutes to tell you

how Special you are to me. (Special Dark Hershey’s)

I couldn't find a greater friend if I searched all

across the Milky Way. I would follow

you anywhere, even to Mars. If you

ever Crunch my heart, (Nestle Crunch)

I know I would fall to Pieces (Reese's Pieces)

I hope this card makes you Snicker (s blacked out)

and have a wonderful day!

This letter is sealed with a Kiss. (Hershey’s kiss)

Love,
Angie

Of course a chocolate candy bar card sounds a bit silly. That is half the fun. Don’t be shy. The person you choose to give a card like this to will love it, I promise!

How To Make A Chocolate Candy Bar Card

Choose the chocolate candy bars you are going to use for your card.
Write out your message on a piece of paper so you have an idea of the placement of your candy bars within the card.
Get a piece of poster board to use as your card. You can use basic white and then use multi colored markers for writing out your script. Alternatively, you can choose between a variety of colored poster boards. Just remember that if you choose a color that is too dark, you will have difficulty reading anything that you may write on it.
Depending on how many candy bars you are going to use, you must determine the size of your card. You can just leave your poster board flat, or you can fold it like a regular card.
It is a good idea to write your message on the card gently with pencil to be sure you have the placement just the way you want it.
Once you know exactly where you plan to put everything, you can begin writing your message with markers.
Use tape or glue to secure your candy bars in place. They will probably be heavier than you expect, so it is a good idea to place them as balanced across the page as possible.
If you want to jazz up your card, you can get fancy by using paper lace doilies, construction paper, stickers, etc. You are only limited by your imagination.

I hope you can use this idea to help you make someone you care about feel extra special by giving them a personalized homemade chocolate candy bar card.
