Dove Chocolates: For a Valentine’s Day You’ll Never Forget

February 13, 2011 By Joi Sigers

Dove Promises

We’ve always been big fans of Dove chocolates in our home.  Dove Chocolates give you the rich, smooth, and creamy flavor of extremely expensive chocolates without costing you a small fortune.  Another big plus?  They’re easier to find than trouble.  No need to “check for a retailer near you,” just run to your favorite grocery or department store and grab reinforcements as soon as you run out.

Or, better yet, do as I do and grab reinforcements before you run out.

A chocolate-y sense of irony just occurred to me.  I’m writing a chocolate candy review while eating a couple of chocolates (Dove’s Raspberry & Dark Chocolate Swirl candies) and drinking a cold mocha frap.   And that’s not all.  As all of this is playing out, it’s doing so as I’m surrounded by the aroma of a chocolate cake in the oven.

Can you even picture how widely I’m smiling right now?

You still have time to sweeten your Valentine’s Day gift.  Run to your nearest store and stock up on Dove Chocolates.  You MUST, MUST, MUST find their newest delectables:

  • Dove Raspberry & Dark Chocolate Swirl bar – The smooth chocolate combines with the sweet raspberry in a way that delights every cell in your body.
  • Dove White & Milk Chocolate Swirl bar – While I can tell you that this candy bar is outrageously delicious (truly, truly spectacular), I missed the chance to give you the imagery that would have done the flavor justice.  When each of my daughters tasted this candy bar, their expressions summed it up perfectly.  Imagine the look on someone’s face when they’ve just eaten something so delicious they feel a little bit guilty.  Picturing it?  Now you have a fraction of an idea of how wonderful this bar is.
  • Individual sized Dove Raspberry & Dark Chocolate Swirl candies – These stupid good little candies made me vow another New Year’s Resolution:  I resolve to NOT let a day go by without having at least one of these little wonderful treats.  The good news is I’ve finally made a resolution I’ll keep!  Honestly, I intend to eat one of these every day for the rest of my happy chocolate-loving life.
  • Dove Promises are outstandingly smooth and delicious little candies.  The little individual candies have fun, uplifting little messages inside the wrapper – we always get a huge kick out of these.  As though we needed another reason to tear into them.

So there you have it.  A couple of suggestions from the world’s biggest chocolate lover – if you want to really step up your Valentine’s Day efforts this year, head off for the store now and buy each of the suggestions above…

… then watch their face!
