Edible Chocolate Love Notes

This Company Creates Handwritten Notes Out of Chocolate Stationary

— April 28, 2016 — Lifestyle
A startup called 'Noteworthy Chocolates' recently launched a Kickstarter campaign to create edible chocolate love notes. Both chocolate and heartfelt notes are associated with Valentine's Day and now consumers can give both gifts at the same time by creating an edible card.

Noteworthy Chocolates helps consumers create personalized chocolate love notes by engraving the individual's writing on edible stationary. The company uses Fair Trade-certified chocolate made from cacao that has been sustainably sourced from Ecuador. Consumers can choose from white, milk or dark chocolate, each of which is free from major allergens such as peanuts, soy and gluten. The engravings are then made on the chocolate using a food-certified laser machine. The end result is an edible love letter that tastes just as good as it looks.

The edible chocolate notes cater to the growing demand for personalized products and customizable gifts.
Trend Themes
1. Personalized Edible Gifts - The trend of personalized products extends to the food industry, creating opportunities to offer unique and customizable edible gifts.
2. Fair Trade Chocolate - The demand for ethically-sourced food products presents an opportunity to promote fair trade chocolate and sustainable sourcing practices in the confectionery industry.
3. Food-based Stationery - The combination of food and stationary opens up possibilities for innovative edible products that merge traditional and edible materials.
Industry Implications
1. Confectionery - The confectionery industry can capitalize on the trend of personalized edible gifts by offering customized chocolate products, like edible love notes.
2. Food Gifting - Brands in the food gifting industry can expand their product offerings to include edible love notes, catering to the demand for unique and personalized gifts.
3. Fair Trade - Fair trade organizations and brands in the chocolate industry can leverage the growing demand for ethically-sourced food products by promoting fair trade chocolate as a key ingredient in edible love notes.
