Wrapping homemade chocolates?

Me and my friend are making and selling little chocolate hearts over the summer - we've got molds, and everythingNow all we need it a way to wrap them once they're madeSo, what do you wrap little chocolates in? Is it aluminum foil? And if so would just the plain silver be okay?Also, anyone have an idea for a sales pitch for when we start going door to door?

Answer:

Guillotine! Available at any good office supply shops.
Use a straight edge,then run a decorators Stanley blade along it.The ones that you can snap off to get a new blade are best.
By folding the paperFold it strongly following the line you want to cutThen open back the paper, hold the two parts (close to the top of the fold) and pull them apart carefully all the way to the bottomIt will cut in a straight line, however there may be slight evidences of tinny wraps along the cutTry practicing first on another piece of paper.
Try a waxed or coated paper, then a fancy wrapping like a cellulose or paper one, it is best to put them in a non stick one first to prevent them from melting and nicer one for eye appeal.
Aluminum straightedge (yardstick) from hardware store, and a small blade x-acto knife should do the trick.
