During the planning of a recent baby shower, the idea of favors came up. My mom came up with the idea of specialized candy like personalized M&Ms or Hershey Kisses. Lo and behold they already have Hershey Kisses wrapped in blue foil with an “It’s a boy!” tag.
I went ahead and purchased the Kisses and some blue bags, but I felt like the favor was lacking originality and personalization. I decided to add another chocolate to the mix – Hershey Miniatures. I went ahead and found some templates for a personalized Miniature wrapper but none of them allowed me to easily change the writing, colors and design of the template, so I created a new one from scratch. You can download it here. However, when I went to purchase the Miniatures, I discovered that they only come in the variety bag. Being that I only wanted the milk chocolate, I decided to buy Hershey Nuggets instead.

I found many templates for the Nuggets but again, I couldn’t find one that allowed me to make the changes that I wanted. So once again, I had to create my own. Many people suggest using labels for these wrappers, but they won’t actually cover the entire candy, and you may find that when you print, you waste a lot of labels as templates don’t always line up properly when used in different printers.
To attach the wrapper, I found it easiest to put a dab of glue on both the outside and inside of the edge of the printed wrapper to ensure it will stay in place. The edges slightly overlap so it will look neat and fully closed.
Here are my templates, free for your use. They are completely editable once you download them.

With less than 24 hours left to figure out something for Valentine’s Day, this free candy bar printable wrapper saying is a great go-to gift idea. I love that Valentine’s Day makes me stop and think about the people in my life that I love. The people who really make me, well… happy.
“You Are My Happy” candy bar card will make someone’s day a little more special. And it’s easy too!
I bought some Hershey nuggets. Man, I hope you already know how good these are. If you don’t, you won’t regret it! They come in milk chocolate, with almonds, with almonds and toffee bits AND dark chocolate. The options seem endless– and you can get them all in one bag!
After getting your candy (and eating a few!) print off my printable candy wrappers —HERE— so you can start wrapping your chocolates! It’s best to use thicker paper to put your candies on, I used card stock scrapbook paper over it. I found my Scotch tape held up great keeping my chocolates attached.
Here are some tips:
1. I taped the wrapper together. Then I made sure to stick some tape onto the chocolate and the printable wrapper so the chocolate doesn’t slide around.
2. All you need to do to attach the chocolate to the card is to fold the tape like a circle and put on the candy- like so.
