Chocolate Christmas Candy

Sensational Sweets for a Special Season

chocolate christmas candy treeWhen you combine chocolate and Christmas you can't help but end up with some fantastic Chocolate Christmas Candy.











I love chocolate all year round, but there is just something extra special about chocolate over the holidays. Perhaps it is because I find it easier to make excuses to indulge in my favorite temptations. :)


I grew up enjoying a white Christmas with gently falling snow (or a blizzard) and a warm fire in the fireplace. I loved it. There is something about a white Christmas that adds to the spirit of the season for me.


Unfortunately, I have not always been able to enjoy that kind of Christmas. For the last 12 years my husband and I have been serving as missionaries in the tropics. As a result, we have struggled to get that same sense of holiday spirit as we are dripping with sweat, pardon me, "perspiration."


One of the things that has really helped me has been to whip up batches of Christmas cookies and Chocolate Christmas Candy.


Believe me, it can be a real challenge to make homemade chocolate candy in the humidity, but I discovered that it really helps to get me in the Christmas spirit. You probably think I'm just looking for an excuse to make chocolate candy. Well, you may be partially right. :)


Really, though, making homemade chocolate Christmas candy brings back wonderful memories of home and family. I have some favorite homemade Christmas Candy Recipes that seem to do the trick year after year.


Not only do I get to pamper myself a little with these goodies, but it gives me an opportunity to share some of the Christmas spirit with my friends.


Spread some Christmas cheer by adding your favorite Christmas candy recipes and family traditions. Or enjoy those submitted by other visitors.

One of the most clever chocolate Christmas treat ideas is the Christmas Fudge Wreath. It is adorable and delicious. Give it a try.


Another yummy idea is a variation of a chocolate almond truffle recipe. Try this Chocolate Almond Christmas Candy recipe.


And how about the mint chocolate blend of Chocolate Candy Cane Truffles?


Too much work? Then be tempted by the simplicity and delightful look of Chocolate Dipped Candy Canes. These are so easy to make you can let the kids help. Make it a Christmas family tradition!


Buy Chocolate Christmas Candy Online

Living so far from my family, I still like to treat them to some chocolate Christmas candy. Unfortunately, my creative efforts would never survive the journey home. Instead, I have found some wonderful online resources that have helped me provide that special homemade candy gift by proxy.


If you want to buy Christmas candy, allow me to recommend some companies to you. Each of these links will open in a new page so you can come back and browse through the list at your leisure. I have no doubt you will find something splendid!




These are some ideas that I have come across to give your Homemade Chocolate Christmas Candy to others.


  • Collect pretty tins to use for giving gifts of Chocolate Christmas Candy. Line with foil and layer chocolates between waxed paper.


  • Spray the outside of an egg carton with red, green, gold, or silver paint. Using tissue paper, line each section inside and drop in a piece of homemade chocolate Christmas candy. Decorate with a festive bow.


  • Keep your eyes open for pretty candy dishes throughout the year. If you are like me and can't afford to buy a bunch of brand new ones, look at garage sales, second hand shops, or even in the back of your own cupboards. Fill with homemade candies, wrap with cellophane, and tie with ribbon. These make lovely gifts that can be used even after your chocolate gift is long gone.


  • Red or green plastic picnic plates can be prettied up with a paper doily and a selection of your homemade chocolate Christmas candy. These are nice to take along when you are invited out as a guest at someone else's house during the holiday season.


  • Get a group of ladies from your church or club to sign up for a Chocolate Christmas Candy Exchange. Each person makes a different recipe and prepares a small plate for each lady on the list. This is especially fun because it will enable you to try a variety of new Christmas candy with a lot less effort. Don't forget to ask each lady to include a copy of the recipe with each plate. Who knows, you may discover the treasure of a new favorite.



I hope these ideas have started to get you thinking and excited about giving this holiday season. No doubt you will be a blessing to someone and really make their day.

I would like to wish you a beautiful Christmas this year. Don't forget to take time to think of Jesus Christ and His wonderful gift to us during this lovely holiday season.


I am so grateful that He came to this earth to provide Salvation through His own death, burial, and resurrection. May the true spirit of Christmas give you joy and peace.
