Guess the Chocolates

Buy a huge Valentine box of chocolates. Then, each person will get take a turn being blind folded and guessing what kind of chocolate they have.

How to play:

The blind folded person will draw 1 chocolate out of the box. They can smell, feel it’s shape, but…they must taste it. They then will take their best guess as to what kind of chocolate they just tasted.

The person that guesses with the most correct guesses wins!

Remember to have the “chocolate” key from the box handy.

NOTE: You can also play with your favorite chocolates. Just make sure you have a good mix of them and that someone knows what they all are to tell if the guess is correct.
