Valentine's Day Chocolates

Dating back as far as the 1800's, the notion of sending romantic cards and gifts to their special someone was a popular tradition that has taken the world by storm in today's modern times. The heir of his family's chocolate company was Richard Cadbury, which had improved his chocolate mastery so much that he began to market his chocolate creations in elegant crafted boxes where he himself was responsible for the design and creation of.

The Victorian people lavished each other with these beautiful and delicious gifts and that legacy still holds true today.  With the addition of hearts, roses, and images of Cupid, these small boxes of chocolates are a undeniable staple that we see across store shelves starting in early January.  Not only now do we send gifts like the Heart of Chocolate Gift Box, but also baskets overflowing with chocolate decadence such as the famous Godiva Basket or the Valentine Chocolate Dipped Oreo Cookies.

From chocolates with creamy centers to sweet refined gifts of white or chocolate-covered cookies, the gift of sending chocolates to your special valentine still holds true today.  And we see no end in sight of this long-established tradition ending anytime soon!
