Chocolate Foil Sports Balls

 

Foil. The perfect choice for wrapping chocolate. Whatever shape the chocolate (heart, star or bunny), foil has the ability to perfectly cover and address the chocolate’s entire surface. And it is inevitable that every object will be created in chocolate at some point in time. Chocolate people, chocolate roses, chocolate shopping carts. And then there are the more elaborate chocolate creations: Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty and Golden Gate Bridge.

A bit less complicated but no less endearing are chocolate foil-wrapped sports balls. These ¾-inch diameter chocolate orbs are solid milk chocolate and are indistinguishable from one another if not for their foil wrappers. They come in six varieties: footballs, soccer balls, tennis balls, baseballs, golf balls and basketballs. If there is a more perfect gift for athletes, coaches or sports fans around the holidays (other than tickets to the big match), I fail to know what that might be. No matter how small the gesture, giving milk chocolate sports balls are, nevertheless, a thoughtful way to tell someone “go get ‘em??? before the big game. Not being an athlete myself, I know that I’d still love to receive tiny chocolates that were molded and foil-covered to appeal to my interests. A foil laptop, for instance, would be a joy to consume. I’m sure I’d also get some kicks from eating a chocolate foil-covered Space Needle (being that Seattle is my favorite city) or a chocolate-covered Reality TV show…not that I know how that could happen. The nature of this candy is such that you’d most likely buy it for a gift, and not for yourself. Imagine the joyful look on the face of your beloved sports fan, coach or athlete to receive such a personalized gift that’s not only fashionable, but succulent as well. Whatever the occasion, you’ll “hit a home run???* with these chocolate sports balls.
