It’s only a couple days into 2020, but our hearts are already set on Valentine’s Day and all the sweets that come with it. Last year, brands like Reese’s, Dove and Hershey’s seriously delivered all the best Valentine’s Day candy. But no one beats Lindt for a quality candy and a budget-friendly V-day gift.
Lindt is releasing a brand-new Lindor truffle flavor for this year’s season of love—and a returning favorite. We’re head over heels!
They’re the Only Sweets We Need
Kick off Valentine’s Day (and date night) with Strawberries & Cream or Dark Strawberry Lindor truffles. Each truffle is packed with a sweet and creamy filling that we already can’t get enough of, all wrapped up in a decadent chocolate shell. The Strawberries & Cream truffle boasts a delicious white chocolate coating, while the Dark Strawberry boasts—well—dark chocolate.
The truffles were first spotted by eagle-eyed foodie @JunkFoodontheGo on Instagram.
Strawberries & Cream is actually a returning flavor after it made waves with chocolate fans last year. We have no doubt that all-new Dark Strawberry will be another Valentine’s Day hit (and hopefully it’ll stick around for next year).
So what is the best Valentine’s Day chocolate? We indulged and decided for ourselves.
Get Yours Before They’re Gone
If all this sounds pretty sweet to you, you’ll be happy to know the Valentine’s Day Lindor truffles are already available at Target. For a six-ounce package, Dark Strawberry and Strawberries & Cream will only cost you $4.79. They’re available for delivery, so you can send all the sweetness of the season to that faraway loved one.
Still can’t curb your sweet tooth? Turn your kitchen into a chocolate factory with these homemade Valentine’s Day chocolate recipes.
