Valentine's Day is a great excuse to give and receive chocolate - especially really nice chocolate! Chocolates as a Valentine’s Day gift have been a tradition for a long time now - and the link between love and chocolate is even older! It is rumoured that the Aztec emperor Montezuma believed chocolate was an aphrodisiac. Even Cassanova was apparently fond of chocolate (was that his secret, I wonder?). 

Here at Paper Tiger we are firm believers in expressing affection through chocolate! This year our selection includes many delicious treats from chocolatiers passionate about creating high quality chocolate. 

Perfectly pink for Valentine’s Day, these luxurious truffles from Love Cocoa are filled with fresh cream ganache, infused with Marc de Champagne, and a smooth raspberry purée is coated in a white chocolate shell decorated with raspberry pieces. We also love the funky gold and dark pink design of their box!

If you’re looking for a unique chocolate experience to celebrate your love, check out this brilliant prosecco milk chocolate bar. As the playful package suggests, this chocolate is infused with prosecco flavouring - but it also contains popping candy to create a fizzy effect! 

For a love as sweet as honey, try these incredibly moreish honeycomb chocolates from Edinburgh chocolatier Coco. With honeycomb coated in the finest single origin milk chocolate, and packaged in a beautifully designed box. 

Or, feel the passion with Coco’s delicious passion fruit dark chocolate bar from the impeccably designed artist collection. Ideal for the chocolate fans who enjoy their treats on the dark side!

This bar from another brilliant Edinburgh chocolatier - Chocolate Tree - is a great way to let someone know you’re nuts about them! The Super Nuts dark chocolate bar is rich organic dark chocolate topped with hazelnuts, cashews, walnuts, and almonds.

You can view our selection of Valentine’s Day chocolates here, as well as our cards and Valentine’s gifts. No matter what your plans are for Valentine’s Day, be sure to savour the sweet things!
