I found these adorable mini-appetizer forks at Vons, fell in love and knew I had to do something with them! So here it is… mini-fork truffle seating cards… place on each plate for your guests to enjoy!

Supplies: Mozaik appetizer forks, 1″ round scalloped paper punch, mini-cupcake liners, Glue Dots, yummy truffles, pen and card stock of your choice!

First start by punching the round circles for each guests name, cutting the paper in strips if need be – to get the most from each sheet of card stock.

Next, write each guests name on your punched circles. Punch a few extras for mistakes.

Now the fun part! Apply a glue dot to the top, front side of a fork…

Then press the punched circle onto the glue dot on the fork!

Repeat for each guest! They just look so cute!

Next, carefully stab each truffle with a personalized fork and place into a mini-cupcake liner… then place on your guests plate!  I will say carefully again, if done too hard the fork will split the truffle in half – and then you’ll have to eat it!!! This step can be done at your reception, if not… place them all on a large cookie sheet to transport.

The choice of colors for mini-cupcake liners and card stock circles is almost endless!

    Hi Pam! Those look like the exact same fork! The brand name in the listing is the same :)

      Thank you! I am going to do this for my wedding reception. I have a friend that makes oreo truffles to die for. So she said she will make them for me! So it's a nice cheap place card and you can just throw the forks away! So I won't be stuck with 200 seashell place card holders lol. I will send pic's if you want. Not getting married till September though. Thanks again for posting!!! Pam
