Valentine’s Day Box of Chocolates

Chocolates are a girl’s best friend. Specially on Valentine’s Day. Even more special when you make them yourself from scratch. I love melting chocolate and reshaping it into something cute and delicious. To celebrate Valentine’s Day this year, I made a surprise box of chocolates with my favorite fillings, including pecans, butterscotch and marshmallow.

This delicious winter treat is usually enjoyed over Christmas (hence the name) by the northerners, who have the privilege of experiencing a snowy winter wonderland. I’m always so jealous. So, since this is the year to try new things, here I am, making a Christmas cocktail in the middle of July, pretending is snowing outside, waiting for Santa to bring us some toilet paper or something.

Handmade gifts are the best, specially when it comes to Valentine’s Day. I guess I’m a cheap date, I’ll take stolen flowers over diamonds any day. But if you disagree, I still think diamond earrings would feel extra special if they came in a handmade paper box.
