Friday, May 4th, 2012
Bonnie Marcus? I think fun, glamorous eye-catching party invitations, note cards and gifts. “Where paper meets fashion” is the Bonnie Marcus tag line. Now…Bonnie Marcus? I also think Haute Couture Chocolates “where paper meets chocolate!” Bonnie Marcus has partnered with Atelier d’Isabelle, a specialty chocolate company that provides  ready-to-give gifts using  premium imported Belgian chocolate and confections.  The delicious chocolates are made using all-natural Fair Trade Ingredients. Bonnie’s “Haute Couture Chocolates” can be personalized as favors for baby & bridal showers, birthday & graduation parties, weddings and more. Just like Bonnie’s fabulous invitations, the chocolate package can be  hand-embellished with glitter & more. “We are thrilled to be able to provide customers with an affordable gift-giving solution that combines the sentiment of a greeting card with an enjoyable gift, all wrapped in a beautiful keepsake package. Each bar is truly a work of art! The only problem,” notes Bonnie, “is that our Couture Chocolate may be too pretty to open up and eat!”
