Women usually have it all together when Valentines comes around so this post is going out to all you men out there. With 12 days left until Valentine’s Day, the plan is to make arrangements now so you can then relax without having to think about a gift. No running around on Saturday, February 14th trying to get anything that is red from the corner drug store because time got away from you again.
I’m here to help. Girls, forward this blog post to your loved one today.
There’s nothing like luscious handmade chocolate exquisitely boxed from a chocolatier’s own chocolate shop. It says you care, it says you made the extra effort, it says you appreciate the finer things including her! To make things easy, I’ve put together a list of some chocolatiers who offer their chocolates online. It doesn’t get any easier than that.
Mark LaPolla runs Life by Chocolates from his historic inn in Greenville, New York. He uses fair trade chocolate and high quality local ingredients whenever possible. He offers a variety of chocolates combining exotic flavours including cherry, local upstate New York honey, tamarind and lemon grass curry with 73% dark chocolate.
While his chocolate bon bons are available in independent stores in the US, you can also order them directly from his online store at Life by Chocolates for shipping within North America.
Mink Chocolates run by Marc Lieberman is another chocolatier that creates fine luxury chocolates with the finest ingredients. He let me know that apart from his usual delicious boxed chocolates, he is also offering two seasonal chocolate flavours for a limited time that will also raise funds for a local organization when purchased this love-fest season.
The first flavour is called Love Potion 2.0 - their flirtatious, special edition, ganache-filled chocolate hearts within a heart. The second flavour offered is called Romeo and Juliet – an exclusive, lustful chocolate bar. Mink will donate 5% of all sales from these two items for Beauty Night Vancouver helping women who face difficult life challenges to regain their self-esteem and confidence. So you can do good while making good on your Valentines gift.
Contact Mink if you want to ship your gift within North America or visit their store located in downtown Vancouver to order your selection ahead of time.
And last but by far not least, the chocolatier that has residents buzzing on Vancouver’s North shore - Thomas Haas. He makes sensational chocolate infused with exotic spices, fresh herbs and precious teas, while others are paired with fresh fruit or nuts from around the world.
All are packaged in the Thomas Haas signature gift boxes. You can order Thomas Haas chocolates directly online for delivery within North America or if you are in the area, visit their store in North Vancouver.
Now getting that spectacular special gift for Valentine’s Day is only a phone call or mouse click away and will take only a few minutes to arrange.
Well, what are you waiting for?
