We bought plain petit fours from our local bakery and personalized them by making little “wax” seals out of chocolate. Fun, right? We used a monogrammed wax seal found on etsy and pressed the seal into semi-melted chocolate.
Are you a cake kind of person or are you planning to serve some desserts in addition to or instead of the standard wedding cake? Although, when it comes down to it, petit fours are pretty much in the cake category…. But still…they’re a fairly alternative choice for a wedding.

This is absolutely adorable, and such an easy/inexpensive way to add a little personal touch! I had a bride suggest this to me the other day, and I’m really excited to try it out!
Such a cute little idea! Definitely going to try it!
This is a great idea – I have so many seals I haven’t gotten around to using and I can’t wait to try this!
wonderful! thanks for sharing :)
This is a wonderful idea!
But I’m wondering…. How do you begin with it?
Do you melt the chocolate first?
and make drops with it? And then when they’re almost hard again, you press the seal in it?
I am also curious exactly which moment do you press seals onto chocolate? and do you make the sealed chocolates and then apply on petit fours?
