Homemade Detox Chocolates & DIY Valentine’s Treats
Love is in the air, and it tastes like chocolate!
When Valentine’s Day rolls around, we try to think of the perfect gift for that special someone in our lives. We want to give them a give that shows them how we feel and how much we appreciate them being in our lives. It isn’t something to be taken lightly, and it can require some thought to come up with the perfect plan.
This Valentine’s Day, make something special for that someone special in your life. This is one sweet, crunchy treat they will not soon forget. Better than any chocolates you can buy at the store, these health-conscious chocolates will show your loved one just how much you care.
They say that the best gifts are the ones that come from the heart. They are the ones that you put time into and are thoughtful. Picking up a box of chocolates from the store may be a nice gesture, but you can hardly say they’re made with love and forethought.
If you want to give chocolate this Valentine’s Day, give your partner a treat that is made with ingredients that will support their health, so they are around for a long time. This is because these homemade chocolates are made Detox Organics Daily Superfood, our all-natural supplement made from over 25 raw organic superfoods. Each of these superfoods was handpicked for their anti-inflammatory health benefits.
This Valentine’s Day, say “I love you” with a gift that is unique; one your partner will never forget! Valentine’s Day isn’t just about giving your partner’s gifts. Traditional gifts become tiring and predictable. A box of store-bought chocolates tastes just as plain as they did the year before, and the flowers wilt and die. A homemade treat shows thought and care, and these treats are so good they will put all other Valentine’s Day chocolates to shame.
With this chocolate Valentine’s Day dessert, you get a cup of chocolate nuts that provides a sweet, crunchy experience. Then, finish it off with chocolate bark that is extra sweet and fruitful thanks to the strawberry topping.
