Hotel Chocolat Valentine's Chocolate Review

This week were sent a special treat to review from the lovely people at Hotel Chocolat. Now, everyone loves getting parcels through the post, but when this parcel arrived, it was clear that it was something special! No boring brown cardboard boxes here....!


I'll keep you hanging on for just a couple more seconds...


Here we have the exquisite Valentine's Goody Bag! A beautifully presented gift bag full of luxury chocolates - what more could a girl ask for on Valentine's Day?

 
This gift contains a luscious selection of charming chocolates to treat someone special this Valentine's Day. With Lovely Hearts Milk Chocolates, Raspberry Fusion Slab, Strawberry Heart Lick and Passion Fruit Truffles there's enough choice to share, if you really want to! (I'm sure the 'broken heart' was the doing of the postman, not Hotel Chocolat... or my loved one!)

 
These chocolates are definitely something to savour and enjoy - deliciously rich but not overly sweet, and an extra bonus point, they are suitable for vegetarians! This Valentine's Goody Bag costs £19, so a really reasonable price for the quality of chocolates that you receive.
 
Perfect for a treat for a relaxing Valentine's stress-free weekend and did I mention that chocolate can reduce stress and anxiety? So, a little indulgence is good for you!
 
You can buy this gift and the other chocolates within the range here. With prices from just £2.50, there's definitely something for all budgets. And don't forget, Valentine's Day is closely followed by Mother's Day and Easter... I'm off to make my 'wish list'!

I love this Engraved Compact Mirror - perfect for any occasion really and as it can be engraved, it's an extra special gift to treasure.

I wish I had found this website before Christmas as there are some lovely gifts for Christmas, including a Secret Santa section - when the going gets tough, get choosing with GiftsOnline4U!

And with a new baby due in our family later on in the year (not me, by the way!) I can't wait to choose a gift from the lovely selection of gifts on the website.
Alex... boy or girl - only time will tell!


Many items fit into more than one category and so can be found through various menus on the site... I always find this helpful as sometimes you need extra inspiration and your recipient may fit into more than one category themself!

And you can even help a deserving charity along the way - Vulcan to the Sky benefit from 20% of the sales (minus postage) of the items listed on the charity gift page - plenty of ideas here for the man in your life.
