The cool gift idea this holiday season comes in a pizza box. That’s right, of all the holiday gift ideas out there, the hottest choice is served at room temperature. Chocolate Pizza is the cool gift that even Santa has on his wish list and is that one perfect shopping pick that makes everyone happy.
But why? What is it about this chocolate confection that makes it so popular as a gift? What’s the secret behind Chocolate Pizza being the coolest gift choice on the planet?
For starters, it’s the name – Chocolate Pizza.
Just the name is cool. I mean how many gift ideas combine two of your favorite things in life – chocolate – and pizza. Putting those two concepts together makes it even more intriguing. I mean when you see something that says, Chocolate Pizza, your first instinct is, I have to know more about whatever that is. It’s human nature. We’re curious people and nothing makes us more inquisitive than a cool name. It’s the same reason rap artists come up with cool stage names – no one would go to a concert for Peter Wodrinovitch, singer of words that rhyme, but they’ll stand in line for hours if that same person is called Rap-T or Ice-V or Big Bad Puffy. Names matter. Let’s face it, if this confectionery titan was named, Round Disk of Cocoa with Various Edible Items on Top, then no one would look twice at it. But call it, Chocolate Pizza, and immediately we want it – just for the name alone.
The next reason Chocolate Pizza is such a cool gift is it comes in a pizza box. Yea, the box adds to the magic. There are two reasons for that and the first is that it reinforces the entire super cool pizza-theme. You don’t see Pizza Hut, Dominos or Papa John’s delivering their pizzas in a brown paper bag – no way, if it’s pizza, it comes in a pizza box, period. So, if “pizza” is going to be in the name, then a box better be how it’s served. Chocolate Pizza Company has that angle covered. We have one very cool pizza box – customized to show off our Chocolate Pizza with little viewing wedges in the lid and that sturdy, corrugated box with a glossy coating to make it pop.
The second reason the pizza box is such a big part of Chocolate Pizza as a cool gift idea is that the contrast it offers. It’s a genuine pizza box but inside is this amazing gourmet quality chocolate creation. Humble exterior – amazing interior – a contrast that captures our attention and imagination. It’s like opening an oyster shell to find a pearl inside – unassuming outside hides very desirable inside. People love that juxtaposition of expectations – discovering something so incredibly delicious in the most ordinary of packages. You simply got to have the pizza box.
But you can’t eat a name and the box doesn’t taste so good so the next secret to Chocolate Pizza being the coolest gift idea of the season is that this chocolate masterpiece delivers a chocolate lover’s dream. You don’t eat Chocolate Pizza, you experience it. This is a quality of chocolate and a combination of tastes that you don’t encounter every day. It’s a rare moment that rewards your senses with an overload of everything that makes chocolate so unique.
Chocolate Pizza Company uses the finest quality Swiss-style chocolate available and tempers it into a smooth, velvety, melt-in-your-mouth consistency. Tempering is a process that fine chocolate must go through to achieve a finished product that merits a “gourmet” label. Tempering manipulates temperature as the chocolate is melted – actually realigning the crystalline structure of the chocolate itself – and giving it strength, shine and a smooth mouth-feel. It’s the mark of fine chocolate.
Chocolate Pizza Company adds another secret twist to our trademarked Chocolate Pizza – homemade English toffee. We use a local recipe that dates to 1919 and make the English toffee in small batches right on-site. The toffee is cooled, stretched, ground fine and blended into the tempered chocolate. This blend is then poured into real pizza pans and topped with candies or nuts. The toffee adds a unique element to the Chocolate Pizza, both taste and texture, and is another reason Chocolate Pizza Company is the gold standard for this sweet classic.
Finally, Chocolate Pizza is a cool gift idea because you can be so creative with it. There is literally no limit to the impressive ways you can offer this treat. The color combinations, taste blends, decorations and customization that our skilled chocolatiers create means that our Chocolate Pizzas are ideal gifts for the holidays, birthdays or any special occasion.
We handcraft every Chocolate Pizza so no two are ever identical. There is no mass production here – real people, talented people, move the Chocolate Pizza through the process step by step. If your Chocolate Pizza says, “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Birthday” or “Thank You” or anything else, then that greeting was handwritten in white chocolate by a true artisan.
People love a handmade gift because it speaks to a more personal gesture. When something is handmade, there is a sense of quality, pride and uniqueness to it. The gifts we remember most are the ones that someone made for us and Chocolate Pizza comes with that kind of feeling, that type of connection. More than any other reason, Chocolate Pizza is the coolest gift idea of the season because it connects with people in a way that makes them feel good. And isn’t that really what gift-giving is all about – sharing a connection between giver and receiver that leave both feeling good.
So be cool this season, Chocolate Pizza Company has you covered.
