Pink and Chocolate Lady Bugs or Blue and Chocolate Turtles

A pink and chocolate lady bug theme works well for a new baby girl. Decorate with pink, brown and white balloons, cups, plates, streamers and napkins. Look for chocolate and pink polka dot napkins. Find plush pink and chocolate colored lady bugs and place these in various places throughout the house. If you can't find these colors, simply design your own lady bug and hang them up on the walls. Use brown paper for the lady bug's body and put pink paper dots on her back. You can also make her body pink and the dots brown. You may need to go hunting at department stores, party stores or online to find exactly what you need. If, possible serve chocolate lady bugs as favors.
A blue and chocolate turtle theme works well for a baby boy's shower. Decorate with blue and brown balloons. Serve your guests miniature chocolate turtle favors. Find blue and chocolate plush turtles to use as decoration or make your own with paper. Cut out a turtle shape with blue paper and glue brown squares on his back to resemble a shell.
Chocolate Covered Strawberries
-
Feature chocolate covered strawberries as favors to the guests at the baby shower. Wash the berries first and dip each berry slowly into melted dark, white or milk chocolate. Include several flavors to create more variety. You can also order chocolate covered strawberries or other fruit, rather than doing the work yourself.

Chocolate Prizes and Favors

Fill mason jars full of chocolate candies, chocolate chip cookies and other treats to give out as prizes. In addition, look for chocolate-scented lotions and soaps to give away as prizes also.

Balloons Filled with Wrapped Chocolate Candies
-
Blow up ten or more balloons that match the colors for the shower theme. Ask someone to help you open up the neck of the balloon and put small pieces of wrapped chocolate candies inside. Use Hershey's kisses, peanut butter cups, peppermint chocolate and other treats.
