I know one of the themes right now is chocolate but if anyone has any additional ideas on easy/fun chocolate recipes, invitations, games, etc. I would greatly appreciate it!! :eek:

Check out the recipes and posts (search) on the bar above the thread. There have been a ton of ideas posted. Before I found this site I searched the web under "chocolate" and got a ton of tips - most weren't helpful but some were fun. I love the new recipies in the celebrations shows but I think I'll so a chocolate skillet cake at my next chocolate show - showing off that cookware.

FYI: I used to call my chocolate shows "Death By Chocolate" but then a host had a death in the family (not anyone close to her and she laughed about the coincidence) right before her show so I changed the title to "Chocolate Lover's Overload".
 
Have you checked out the new Season's Best -- Molten Lava Skillet Brownie....yuummm!!! It took everything for me to keep my 6 yr old out of the mix!!! Lots of ways to shake this one up, just use your imagination!!
This is a major chocolate recipe sure to please!!

Pampered Chef Recipe SearchGo to Consultant's Corner, Product Info, Recipe Search, and enter Chocolate for Specified Ingredient. You won't be able to pull up recipes that are in the cookbook, but the ones that are highlighted blue are on use and care cards for PC products and are viewable.

It's a great way to promote PC recipes at your theme show.
 
Since you have not done a show yet, you might want to stick to the Celebrations Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate shows. You can get the recipes and info online at Consultant's Corner. Go to Product Information - Celebrations. Here you will find the 3 new theme Celebration Shows.

Another great one is an old Celebrations shows, Simple as Pie. The recipe was very easy and can be found again in Consultant's Corner - Product Information - Cheery Chocolate Mousse Pie.
