Need help picking out a box of chocolates for your sweetie? Let NPR help you out. The folks over at NPR put themselves to the task of finding the perfect box of chocolates just for you. They really did a thorough job testing out chocolates, they sampled 30 kinds. I think you should be able to find something you like in your price range that suits your tastes.Â
They chose 9 best choices. These included such tasty treats Moonstruck’s Love Letter Truffles, Lake Champlain Chocolate Hearts, Fran’s Grey and Smoked Salted Caramels. I have to admit I love anything carmel, so I would probably have to chose the Fran’s Grey and Smoked Salted Caramels.

For the Canadian readers i would totally recommend chocolates from Bernard Callebaut (If you’re not Canadian don’t feel left out. There are a few US stores, and they do ship all over the US)
Hands down the best chocolate I’ve ever had. They’re all made fresh in Alberta and shipped to the stores so that the chocolate you’re eating is never more than a few days old.
In addition to chocolate treats, they do carry chocolate baking supplies.

Sang,
Thanks for the post! I agree that Callebut is indeed an excellent choice in chocolate. A lot of the major grocery chains in the US now carry it in bakers form.
Best,
Nicky
