So, when I got the party, I started thinking "Bliss" What would be blissful? I decided that a pedicure is always great, so I got out my Body Shop at Home kit, and did foot soaks for all my guests. To keep with the chocolate theme, I went with the cocoa butter....smells like chocolate to me! All my guests LOVED it. Thank you Hershey's!
My party was just OK. I originally invited 10 people and within a week of the party (and most within 24 hours), 6 people changed their RSVP to No and 2 people no-showed... so I only had 2 other people at my party. :( I made the best of it and us three still had good food, conversations and laughs. It's just hurtful when I put so much money in my party and people do stuff like that. I'm still looking forward to hosting more parties and won't let this ruin my enthusiasm.
I had a great party! Check out my gift bag design in my album! Lots of goodies and yummies!
My party was a success. I can't wait to experience another house party since this was my first. The winner by far was the melt away chocolate. Everyone loved the goody bags and all the chocolate desserts we ate. My son is taking one of the goody bags for show and tell tomorrow and giving each student a piece of Bliss. So at 6 years old he will be hosting a "house Party" of his own.:) THANK YOU HERSHEY AND HOUSE PARTY!!!!!!!
Enjoyed my Bliss party yesterday. Most liked the smooth texture of the meltaways. Yum. I have a few handfuls of dark chocolate left but all in all it was a great event. Thanks House Party and Hershey's!!!
The meltaways are the hands down winner of the taste test.....the purple packaging wins for the eye-catchiest packaging.....we saved a lot of the wrappers to re-wrap sugar cubes next Christmas, to make tiny little pretend presents...my daughter's idea! :) Yay for recycling too....that's blissful
My party was last night we had a great time. The meltaway Bliss was the winner in the flavor test as I figured it would be! Most of us enjoyed lunch first then dove into the chocolate, of course there was those that dove into the chocolate first. Thanks to Julee_Morrison I used your chocolate cake recipe and your fondue recipe they were GREAT! I also melted some of the Milk Chocolate Bliss and dipped pretzels in it. Had some popcorn that I drizzled the milk chocolate and some melted peanut butter chips over it was yummy. Everyone loved the goodie bags they couldn't wait to dive into them. My daughter had some of her friends over for the party as well so needless to say I sent some kinds home a bit hyper. Thank you Hershey and HouseParty for the makings of a great party!
The party was such a hit last night at my house, that today i am going to my moms house for a family birthday party and i am going to take bliss there and have a mini tasting party. I went way overboard buying extra bliss. Thank you houseparty.com and hersheys for the fantastic party and great tasting chocolate.
My guests loved the goodie bags! They also were divided when it came to picking their favorite flavor. Mine definitely is the dark chocolate. I gave away 3 full bags (1 of each) as door prizes! Everyone had a good time and were very impressed with the Hershey Bliss candy. Thank you Hershey and House Party!
We had a very successful party today. We celebrated not only the new "Bliss chocolate" but also PAYING FORWARD a brand new FORD vehicle on behalf of the Watch and Give Ford Contest. I surprised random guests with little gift bags containing the pens, paper and magnets. Then I had a BIG bowl of chocolate with big THANK YOU HOUSEPARTY.COM signs. IT WAS TRULY BLISSFUL!! -- THANK YOU
My goodie bags turned out awesome and looked great, thanks to the Bliss logo stickers I printed out and decorated them with... everyone loved the chocolate and thought the grocery list pads were cool. It was also good that I could e-mail my guests with the coupon from Hershey's!
All my Bliss is gone! I have never seen chocolate eaten so fast in all my days! It was a treat to listen to everyone compare the three flavors. The favorite was the meltaway!!
I printed out the recipe for the chocolate scented playdo and out it into the gift bags. I also will hold a raffle and the person who name get's picked will get a shirt transfer with the Bliss Logo on it and second place will get on with the Disney fairies printed on it. The goody bags were assembled last night and they were filled with chocolate theme goddies, I found at the Dollar store and Big Lot's. We will have a chocolate theme jeopardy for the guest to get a chance to win a bag of Bliss chocolates. It will be a barbque in the backyard and have everbody relax and enjoy the weather outside, since it will be a good day.
My party was last night and a major hit! I decided to make chocolate raspberry martinis with frozen raspberry garnish and boy were they yummy (1 1/2 oz of Raspberry Absolut vodka and 1oz white Creme de Cacao - maybe a little more Cacao if you want the chocolate flavor to come through strong). I made "Bliss Lists" for everyone - they were lists I came up with that had blissful quotes and ideas of how to live more blissfully. I also handed out the scrapbooking pages, coupons and I found some info on the internet about how to taste chocolate. We watched Chocolat and Juno (I just love that movie!). The goodie bags were a huge success and I added some calming tea bags, lotions and other bliss inducing stuff! Great party! The Bliss with the meltaway center were the most popular with the dark chocolate coming in second.
My party will took place at work.......during Friday lunch...during the week a bunch of us are going to watch a little of Charlie and the chocolate factory and conclude the movie on Friday with the goodies! BAgs were a hit and we had so much fun.
Our hershey party was Friday april 25th (tonight) What a blast. We made up the goodie bags. We served mushrooms stuffed with italian sausage and dipped in parmesan,Taco dip and chips,guacamole,meatballs mixed with a jar of salsa and grape jelly (YUM!!!),Buffalo wings (marinated in franks red hot redwine vinegar and melted butter then baked). For desserts we served lemon bars,chocolate cupcakes made with hershey frosting, and BLISS BLISS BLISS. Everyone enjoyed the selection of bliss. THE FAVORITE WAS THE Filled center. Everyone mingled and just enjoyed being together and unwinding. We had Scott,Heather,Shannon,Becca and Emily,Pete,Donna,Justin,Gianna,My mom and dad, Steve's mom,Jessica Rebecca,Briona,Macylin,& Steve and myself. Great turnout due to a few were sick and couldn't make it also yucky weather and tornado watch. UMMMMM The only DUH Part was when everyone was ready to leave the goodbyes were quick and I forgot to get pictures. THANKS for the HERSHEY BLISS EXPERIENCE. As far as decorating I found a whole ice cream shoppe look kit at Factory Card Outlet. You start at the baseboard and that part looks like stools lined up, Then a menu was included and some fun signs from the olden days. Everyone was in a mayyer of minutes of the 7pm Start time and the last person left at 11:45. WHAT A HIT I can't say enough. EVERYONE ENJOY YOUR SATURDAY PARTIES.
My daughter and I also experimented and made chocolate bath salts for the bags and put them in pretty celo bags!
Well just completed my goodie bags! I downloaded the favors pages on sticker project paper and cut out different peices for everybag so no 2 bags are alike. Each bag has a variety of the Bliss, notepad, pen, magnet, I ran the thing about the coupon off and glued it to a colored card stock then decorated the edges, each bag also has an extra little something chocolate. I have some chocolate lotion, candles, and foot scrub& giant Hershey bars to give away as prizes. I will also have a door prize, consisting of a sweet romance book, a bag of Bliss, and a chocolate candle! I cannot wait . Thanks HouseParty and Hershey's!
Forgot to add that I made chocolate sugar body scrubs to tuck in the gift bags. Guests were certainly happy to have a 0-calorie treat to remind them of a fun evening.
