1. How are personalised birth-announcement chocolates different from mithai boxes?
Unlike mithai, personalised chocolates are hygienically packed, custom-printed with your baby’s details, and arrive fresh in insulated packaging. They feel modern, Instagram-worthy, and double up as keepsakes that loved ones cherish long after the sweets are gone.
2. Can I add my baby’s photo or footprints to the chocolates?
Absolutely! Edible ink printing allows you to add your newborn’s photo, name, date of birth, or even cute little footprints. The details appear crystal clear and make your announcement truly personal and memorable.
3. What’s the minimum order quantity for these chocolates?
Most printers start with 25–50 boxes to cover setup and printing costs. But you can also order a single sample box first—perfect if you want to check design, print quality, and packaging before placing a bulk order.
4. Do these chocolates stay fresh during delivery in hot weather?
Yes! Chocolates are shipped in insulated packaging with gel packs to maintain freshness even in India’s warmer months. That means you don’t have to worry about melting or spoilage when sending gifts across the country.
5. How much do personalised birth-announcement chocolates cost?
Pricing usually ranges from ₹600 to ₹1,200 per box depending on the size, packaging style, and customisation. From simple eco-friendly sleeves to luxury satin pouches, you can pick an option that fits your budget and guest list.
6. How early should I place my order?
If you’d like to announce with chocolates right after the birth, place your order 2–3 weeks before your due date. That way, designs and approvals are ready, and production starts immediately once the baby arrives.
7. Can I send these gifts to family living outside my city?
Definitely! With pan-India delivery, chocolates are shipped safely in insulated boxes and usually arrive within 3–5 working days. Out-of-town relatives get to share your joy almost as quickly as neighbours do.
8. Are there eco-friendly packaging options available?
Yes, many parents love choosing seed-paper sleeves or biodegradable packaging. They’re eco-conscious, plantable, and add a thoughtful touch—your announcement becomes a little gift for both the heart and the planet.
9. Is it possible to include siblings or pets in the design?
Of course! Many families add a sibling’s doodle, a cute message, or even their pet’s paw print alongside the newborn’s details. It’s a fun way to celebrate the entire family while announcing the new arrival.
10. Do personalised chocolates really create lasting memories?
They do! Families often say the boxes spark conversations, get shared online, and even become keepsakes. Unlike traditional sweets, these edible announcements feel modern, thoughtful, and unforgettable—making your baby’s arrival extra special.
