Valentine’s day is just around the corner and I’m looking forward to getting some sweet for Valentine’s Day. When it comes to chocolate candy…dark chocolate is my favorite although I’ll eat any good chocolate if it’s given to me. Notice the operative word “GOOD CHOCOLATE” not that crappy stuff you find in a discount store.
I’m really fond of truffles, chocolate covered cherries, chocolate dipped strawberries, dark chocolate candy bars (without nuts), peanut butter cups and I love a good piece of white chocolate (solid) please! I’m not fond of other type’s of candy like sour this or that, mints, bubble gum, etc. I’m a pure chocolate type of girl.
My husband always gets me a nice assortment of chocolate candy for Valentine’s Day. We have a locally-owned and operated candy store a few miles away. He always gets me a mixed box of truffles, a box of Jordans and a few peanut butter cups along with a dozen of white roses which I just love!!! We always try to support our small businesses that are locally-owned.
Now I do have to admit…I don’t eat all of that chocolate in a week. I like to enjoy it over time…so I like to put some of it into the freezer. Yes…most chocolates freeze well. Just make sure you package them up really good to prevent freezer burn. It’ll take me about 2 months to devour all of my Valentine’s Day chocolates and then I’ll be ready for Easter!!!
