Chocolate Heart Box filled with Hearts and Gems (£15.00/150g) This beautiful heart-shaped box is completely handmade from Chococo’s unique house 45% Venezuela origin milk chocolate. On the outside, it is decorated with natural colours with a light dusting of edible shimmer. Inside the heart nestle a selection of chocolate hearts and gems: Ruby chocolate, Hazelnut praline, Peach Bellini, NEW Caramelised white chocolate & cocoa nibs, NEW Mure Royale and Dorset Sea Salt Caramel.

Carefully developed by the team, led by founders Claire and Andy Burnet, all the gifts are freshly handmade in Purbeck, Dorset, from fine origin chocolate from Madagascar (dark chocolate 67% cocoa and 65% milk chocolate cocoa), Venezuela (milk chocolate 45%) and Colombia (white chocolate) – so the object of your amorous intentions will get the best possible fine chocolate rush. Chococo has always been a firm believer in working with chocolate high in cocoa solids and low in sugar, as it believes in giving its customers fine chocolate, not a sugar, experience.

Chococo cares about the impact of its packaging on the environment and always has done – since launch back in 2002, its iconic selection boxes have always only ever had cardboard grids inside to hold each chocolate in place, never plastic vac forms. All Chococo’s new gifts for Valentine’s 2020 are in compostable plastic-free wood pulp bags or cornstarch cellophane.

All the items are available on the website and from Chococo’s four Chocolate Houses in Swanage, Dorset; Winchester, Hampshire; Exeter, Devon; and Horsham, Sussex. Alternatively, you can call 01929 421777 to order some tempting Valentine delights.
