Bring the Chocolate to the Bedroom
For some folks, Valentine's Day is all about chocolate, for others it's all about the bedroom. For those of you who are into both, I've rounded up a few fun — and a few tacky — sensual chocolate gifts. While these may be a little risque, they are all definitely safe for work, but if you blush, don't say I didn't warn you! To check out my finds, click the "Start Slideshow" below.
Off to Market Recap: Box of Chocolates
Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and since I don't have a Valentine, I want to surprise my single older brother with a special gift. Although it's a little cliché, I want to send him a box of chocolates. I asked you to help me find the perfect box of chocolates. You looked for sweets that aren't too feminine or romantic. You bookmarked the boxes in Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, box of chocolates.
All of the chocolates look dangerously delicious, but I plan on sending him this box of domino chocolates. My bro is super-sporty, and I think he will love these bittersweet chocolate domino pieces because they're an edible game! Dotted with white chocolate and filled with rich caramel, the only way these could be better is if they were his favorite childhood game, Connect Four. Thanks jspeed — fabulous find!
