When the baby begins to grow up, the most successful gift becomes something that will allow her to feel like a beauty. It is very nice to receive a chocolate bar for the holiday, the wrapper of which is decorated with a cute face. Make a gift sticker for your girl's favorite treat! Kinder Chocolate in a thick cardboard box is best suited. You can mount the image in Photoshop. I propose to make text design in Xara Xtreme Pro.

How to make a DIY chocolate sticker

Let's agree right away that the wrapper will be with photographs. Pick one or two nice, good quality shots. It is very good if the photos are from the same series in a similar color scheme.

Buy a good chocolate bar in hard packaging. It is quite difficult to glue the author's design on traditional soft packaging. The cardboard box makes it easy to measure and mount the reamer.

In the proposed version, the front and back sides of the wrapper are different. The front side is vertical, the photo on it is more serious. The reverse horizontal side is decorated with a more relaxed picture.

Measure the front side and create a matching sheet in Photoshop. In our case, the height of the fragment is 15.7 cm, the width is 8.3 cm. The best resolution for such work is 300 ppi.

Since the gift is intended for a little princess, we choose pink as the main background color.

Tip: fills, drawings and other operations are best done in different layers. Do not rush to reduce the image! Adjusting the end result may require adjusting saturation or transparency. If the layers are already glued together, it is difficult to make drastic changes.

Download or photograph the surface of vintage fabric or paper. Place the fragment on the background and set the blending mode to Overlay. The pattern will turn out to be implicit and very gentle, light. You can set the opacity to less than 100% - then the texture will be even thinner.

Move the photo to the resulting background. To make the image more interesting, we will use a ready-made mask for the edges to crop the image.

Let's say we don't want to crop the entire photo, but only the bottom edge.

  1. Place a cropping mask over the photo
  2. Erase the excess parts of the mask with an eraser, leave the bottom part.
  3. Press Ctrl and at the same time click the left mouse button on the thumbnail of the mask layer. Trimming selection is activated.
  4. Turn off the mask layer, move to the photo layer.
  5. Click Delete and the extra image will be deleted.

The extra image on the top and sides can be erased with an eraser or removed in a layer mask.

Decorate the composition with flowers or other elements you like. Experiment with blending modes: alternate saturated details with translucent ones.

The second side of the wrapper is made in the same way.

For text design, you need to transfer the finished fragments to Xara. Save the front and back as separate PNG documents. In this form, the pictures will open well and save the desired size in Xara.

In our case, the size of the sides of the box is 1.5 cm by 15.7 cm. Create two hot pink rectangles.

We lay out the fragments in a sweep, alternating wide and narrow sides. Align using the Object Alignment service.

It remains to write the name and composition of the chocolate. You can add any warm words to the gift wrapper. But since our girl is still poorly able to read, we will not abuse the text.

We select the color of the letters in the same red-pink range. To separate the text from the background, use a few simple tricks.

  1. Type a word, choose a font.
  2. Copy the received text fragment. Color one copy bright and the other white. In the second case, make the white stroke thicker.
  3. Turn on the shadow for the stroked word.
  4. Place a bright object on a white background with a shadow.

Note: to put an element under all others, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + B.

Print the resulting scan on plain paper - for fitting and control. Cut out the image and try it on a box of chocolate. If all dimensions are calculated correctly and the composition suits you, print on photo paper. Self-adhesive glossy or matte for lamination is best suited for such purposes.

Tip: The factory label often shows through under the photo paper. Try wrapping the chocolate bar in two layers: first seal it with white paper, and then paste the printed decor.

Think of how to give a personalized chocolate bar to the birthday girl. Perhaps this surprise will be “accidentally” discovered in a box of ordinary chocolates. Such a souvenir baby will remember for a long time!

Do not think that such gifts are suitable only for little ladies. Girls of any age, including pensioners, are sincerely happy with personalized chocolate!

A chocolate wrap makes a strong impression on someone who buys chocolate. It has been proven that it is she who becomes the decisive argument in favor of buying a particular bar, and not the taste or quality of chocolate. More than a dozen marketers and designers are working on the attractiveness of the wrapper, realizing how fundamental the issue of the chocolate cover is.

Unique DIY wrap

Everyone has a chance to present a gift that will be remembered by the addressee for a lifetime. Do-it-yourself chocolate, and even with the author's design, is a great idea for any holiday. The design of chocolate packaging depends on a flight of fancy and a bit of skill. It is available to everyone and will be able to fit any celebration budget.

Such creativity is very easy to carry out at home. The easiest way is to simply purchase a chocolate bar and carefully remove the wrapper from it. It is better to work in disposable cellophane gloves so that there are no fingerprints on the chocolate. Unfold the package so that the paper or foil does not tear.

The next step in creating a unique chocolate wrapper is to take measurements from the old packaging. The old packaging is applied to the cardboard, circled with a pencil or marker. Why cardboard? Because in this way a durable template will appear, which, unlike thin paper, can be used repeatedly. When unwrapping the bar, you should pay attention to how the chocolate wrapper was wrapped. A beginner chocolate designer will have to act according to this type.

Then a beautiful thick paper is used. A template is applied, the required area is measured, and carefully cut out. A chocolate wrapper is applied to the bar. Glue and a thin brush should be ready. The packaging is folded and glued in the right places. So you need to leave the product for a few minutes so that the paper can stick well.

Now an unlimited design flight of thought comes into play.

If there is a desire to give a unique chocolate bar to a loved one, a joint photo is taken that is suitable in size and glued to the “face” of the tile.

Tie the chocolate on top with a ribbon, add a bow. You can give such chocolate not only to your soul mate, but also to a married couple by attaching their joint photo.

Packaging for chocolate in its execution does not necessarily need needlework. If you have the skill to work with the Photoshop program, the scope of design activities is even richer. Anything can be placed on the wrapper. You can print a lot of wrappers for all occasions, delighting your family and friends with miracle chocolates.

With your own hands, not only the wrapper is easily made, but also the tile itself. What is needed for this?

To prepare the first recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

  • cocoa powder - 5 tbsp. l.;
  • fatty butter - 2 tbsp. l.;
  • cane sugar or honey - 1 tbsp. l.

The more cocoa powder, the darker the chocolate will be. The more butter you use, the more chocolate you get. The butter is cut into pieces, placed in a saucepan and sent to a slow fire. When the oil comes to a boil, cocoa powder and cane sugar (honey) are added to it.

The resulting consistency should be thick and remain on low heat for 2-5 minutes. Remove from heat, pour into a mold, let the mass cool slightly, then send it to the freezer. After a few hours, the chocolate is ready.

After such a master class, you can take up the preparation of milk chocolate with your own hands. Required Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp cane sugar;
  • 2 tbsp. l. fatty milk;
  • 4-5 art. l. cocoa powder;
  • 50-70 grams of fatty butter.

Also, as in the first case, fatty oil is cut into small pieces and put on fire, it is not brought to a boil. A mass is prepared from milk, cane sugar and cocoa powder, mixed until smooth, while the milk should be warm.

Next, the mass is mixed with almost boiling butter. The new mass is cooked on fire for up to 3 minutes, but it should be stirred regularly to prevent burning. After that, the mixture is removed from the heat and poured into molds, sent to the refrigerator.

A variety of fillings for chocolate will be appropriate if the tastes and preferences of the recipient are known. It will be unpleasant if the chocolate, which was prepared with difficulty and perseverance, does not please the one who receives it. If preferences are unknown, pure milk chocolate is the best choice, as it is the most popular and sure-fire type of sweet.

Anything can be used as supplements. There is chocolate with the addition of sea salt, chili pepper and many other unusual flavor combinations. There are also more canonical types: nut mixture, raisins, chopped dried apricots, candied fruits, caramel, fragrant mild spices. The addition is made when the chocolate is removed from the stove. This must be done before it goes to the refrigerator or hardens.

To please loved ones, you do not need to look for a reason. A sweet tooth lives in every person, who is happy even with a small bar of chocolate, not to mention the author's dessert made by oneself.

A small sign of attention can sometimes cheer up for a long time and make a person smile. And if you attach a sweet gift to this sign of attention, then a positive charge of long-term action is simply provided!

I suggest for lovers of sweets to make a cute chocolate bar with pockets for tea or coffee. Such a present can be given to work colleagues, educators or teachers, a loved one with the words: “This is a small gift for a short break” or “Just like that, drink tea.” In any case, the person will be pleased.

To make such a chocolate bar, you will need: cardboard (you can use colored or any decorative paper), decorative paper for scrapbooking (you can use ordinary office paper by printing various patterns on it on a color printer), glue stick, ruler, scissors, various materials for decoration (rhinestones , beads, feathers, artificial/paper flowers, lace, etc.), a chocolate bar and three individually wrapped tea bags. By the way, if there are no sheets of cardboard at hand, then an office folder is perfect.

The basis of the chocolate bar is a cardboard rectangle 22 cm wide and 17-18 cm high. In the middle of the rectangle, draw vertical lines with a pencil with a distance of 2 cm and bend the rectangle inward along them. You should end up with something like a cover. Then we proceed to the manufacture of pockets for chocolate and tea.

For a pocket for chocolate, we cut out a rectangle 10 * 12 cm in size from cardboard, on three sides (from the sides and bottom) we make two folds 1 cm wide each. We make cuts on the folds (see figure) and glue the side folds with the bottom ones.

For tea pockets, cut three rectangles 14 cm high and 9 cm wide each. We bend the edges, stepping back 1 cm. Then we divide the rectangle into 2 parts (6 and 8 cm each) and fold. We round the upper edges of the greater part, and cut centimeter folds from the lower (smaller) one. We glue the lower part to the folds from the upper part - the pocket is ready.

We decorate our pockets and the base of the chocolate bar with decorative paper (lace, clippings, drawings) as your imagination tells you (or the photo below). Then we glue our pockets to the base: on one side we glue a pocket for chocolate from below, on the other - three pockets for tea (they must be glued one on top of the other starting from the top).

We finally decorate the chocolate bar both inside and out, if desired, glue the ribbon ties (they hold well on double-sided tape).

Such a chocolate box can become not only a nice little gift, but also easily replace a cash envelope for a celebration, if you put not tea, but a folded bill into the tea pockets.

Dare, create - do something nice for yourself and others!
