While in college I met a boy who was a pastry chef at the St. Paul Hotel. I sat next to him every day in class until finally one day I told him I was thinking about marry him. Tilting his head and smiling kindly, he told me his soon-to-be fiance may have a problem with that. It was actually the upcoming weekend that he was going to propose to her. So of course I had to ask how he was going to propose. As I sat with my chin in my hand, staring at the pastry chef he excitingly told me his plan.
The pastry chef explained his fiance was a chocolateaholic (what woman isn't), so he was going to bake her her favorite dark chocolate truffles and place them inside a fancy decorative box with a beautiful ribbon securing it closed. When she opens up the box, the truffles will have the words, Will You Marry Me, delicately written on top of the truffles. I threw my arms are the pastry chef's neck and screamed, yes! Just kidding, I didn't. But what a dreamy and amazing proposal! And so thoughtful - baking her favorite truffles! It still gives me the goosebumps thinking about it. I haven't seen him since in college, but I imagine they had a magical wedding and hope they are still together!
Readers, if you had an amazing proposal or have a friend who did, please share it here! -Mandy
