Why Chocomize is so tasty
Chocomize, a relatively young business, began up with a very basic concept. Three choices of chocolate and one hundred mix-in choices. You have forever wanted a dark chocolate bar with gummy bears and cranberry, you are able to get it now. In short, Chocomize is appealing because you can customize no matter what treat you want. You can even bulk-order Chocomize chocolate for events. To top it all off, 1 percent of the price of Chocomize products goes to your choice of charity.
Moving towards customizing
Customized food products have long been popular. Companies that specialize in sodas, ice creams and multiple other foods have started customizing orders. Handmade and customized products are becoming more popular with the revival of arts-and-crafts style purchases. With websites like Etsy providing online marketplaces, this "Makers' Movement" is accounting for $ 1 billion a year in sales . You are able to expand this ideal to chocolate bars with the Chocomize $ 4 - per -bar candy.
Making your own Chocomize style bar
The fancy boxes and professional printing can certainly make getting from Chocomize worth the money for some. You can try customized chocolate at home for much less expensive, though. Go to a restaurant supply store or grocery store and purchase "melting chocolate" or chocolate chips and mix-ins. Use a crockpot set on low or a double-boiler to melt the chocolate. Line a pan with waxed paper, and pour the mixed chocolate to the pan. If you want to be fancy, you could quite possibly pick up candy molds at any restaurant supply store. At a quarter the cost, you can give yourself the Chocomize experience with less waiting.
