The latest trend in baby showers is for moms-to-be to throw a gender reveal party. It’s a celebration with close family and friends to announce the gender of your baby.

The fun part is the actual reveal. Some couples use the cake cutting as the announcement and if the filling is pink then it’s a girl! While others release blue balloons from a box to announce their having a boy. However you decide to share the news, planning the party should also be creative and fun. Here are some tips you can use when planning the next gender reveal party:

Party Planning Tip #1: Mix it up! No need to stay in the neutral color zone of greens and yellows when planning your party. You can add all sorts of colors, including the traditional pinks and blues.

Party Planning Tip #2: Get your guests to guess! The great part of a gender reveal party is that both men and women can be invited and play the guessing game.

Party Planning Tip #3: Use both boy and girl party favors as part of your decor. The beauty of a gender reveal party is that you can use both types of decorations as part of your overall theme. Like our “Bootie-ful” Baby Blue Decorated Chocolates and Sparkly and Pink Baby Bib Decorated Chocolate. 

Shower your guests with these irresistibly “Bootie-ful” Baby Blue Decorated Chocolates. Our premium Belgian chocolate square is wrapped in matte pastel blue paper and a thin taupe satin ribbon. Adorned with baby blue booties, made from a combination of wood, acrylic and rhinestones—for an added twinkle. 

Or, Celebrate your bundle of joy by adding a little of cuteness to your party with our 

Sparkly Baby Bib Decorated Chocolate. A solid Belgian chocolate square, wrapped in baby pink paper, trimmed with a thin pink satin cord and decorated with a baby bib made with a combination of wood, acrylic and a sprinkle of rhinestones. 

Both party favors have baby-related ornaments and can be used in a lot of fun ways. Remember when planning your party to keep it simple, fun and colorful!
