Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
A chocolate heart-shaped box filled with rich chocolate truffles.
Why we love it:
Alright, this is pretty much your last chance. If you want to order something for Valentine's Day, this is the time to do it. If you are running around last minute, trying to find the perfect gift for your sweetie (and we're sure you're not, certainly our readers were well on top of the game and had their gift all picked out in early February, this is just in case you know someone who hasn't gotten their act together), then we'll do you the small favor of providing you with one last dash of inspiration (to pass on to your "friend" of course). It may seem like a gimme, to suggest chocolate truffles as a gift for Valentine's Day, but these truffles are particularly charming and even a little unexpected. The six sumptuous truffles are only the first course in this dessert masterpiece, once your sweetie has finished their sweets they can eat the box as well. The standard velvet or gold foil box is so cliché, so for a new spin on things, these truffles come in a box made completely of chocolate instead. It's surprising, delicious, and eco-friendly (no box to throw away, after all). So if you're running late (or, you know someone who is), jump on this sweetly flavored bandwagon and ride straight to a happy valentine.
