When planning a dinner party, it is fun and sometimes easier to plan your event around a theme. Chocolate is a superb theme for any party because it is one of the most universally loved foods. There are exciting chocolate options for every course of your party from the cocktails to the main meal and, of course, dessert. Here are some ideas to get you started.
Greet your guests with a specialty chocolate cocktail, such as a chocolate martini or a chocolate-covered cherry martini. You could also serve champagne and chocolate-dipped strawberries as a starter. Other appetizer ideas might include serving slices of the best crisp bacon dipped in chocolate or chocolate dipped pretzel sticks.
One obvious entre to consider is chicken mole, a traditional Mexican dish that features a sauce that is made from a blend of spices, almonds, chilies and bittersweet chocolate. This can be prepared many hours in advance and then served along with rice and little extras such as diced red onion, avocado, cilantro and sour cream. Because all of the main dish items can be prepared or prepped in advance, it can be a great option for the host who will have more time with guests and less time in the kitchen.
For the dessert you need to make a big statement, and the usual cakes, cupcakes and ordinary cookies just won't be enough. What you need is something extraordinary such as chocolate pizza. Chocolate Pizza Company creates an amazing assortment of gourmet dark, milk and white chocolate pizzas and each handmade pizza is wrapped and placed in a genuine pizza box, which creates an amazing presentation for your party.
The dark and milk chocolate pizzas are created using a mix of the finest chocolate and homemade English-style toffee. Then you can opt to add a variety of toppings, including a blend of nuts or perhaps M&Ms. In addition to purchasing a few pizzas, you also should consider buying a few tubs of the company's signature Peanut Butter Wings. These wings are the perfect accompaniment to chocolate pizza and are created by mixing locally made potato chips with creamy peanut butter and then dipping the wings into dark or milk chocolate. You can serve pots of gourmet coffee or dessert wines and liqueurs such as Port, brandy, cognac or even whiskey on ice.
Don't forget to send guests away with goodie bags filled with chocolate treats. Chocolate Pizza Company offers a variety of edibles that you could order along with the pizzas for these treat bags. Consider ordering a single slice of chocolate pizza for each guest or perhaps a small box of Peanut Butter Wings. Another option would be to order small bags of chocolate-covered potato chips, chocolate lollipops or perhaps chocolate-covered marshmallows on a stick.
