Want to make it seem as though you rushed out for a last-minute gift on Valentine’s Day?

Check out our list of the top 10 unique chocolate gifts for Valentine’s Day!

And although you may only spend 5 minutes reading this article and making a purchase, it’ll seem like you spent several days researching and seeking a great gift! (If you don’t want to share this bit of information with your significant other, hey, it’s the little lies of omission that keep a relationship going, right?)

Chocolate Assortment

If you don’t want to settle on one type of chocolate for your Valentine’s Day gift, Golden State Fruit has one of the nicer assortments on the market. It features chocolate covered bing cherries, cashews, caramel corn, and pretzels. And it has some Ghirardelli chocolate squares, all in a beautiful seagrass gift basket that you won’t find at your local Wal-Mart.

Chocolate and Bacon

Don’t knock this combination until you’ve tried it. I’m not sure what makes chocolate and bacon go together so well, but they do. Bacon Addicts has put together an interesting collection of some of the best chocolate and bacon concoctions around, including candy bars, Oreos, and Twinkies.

Chocolate Fountain

Nothing quite sparks the imagination of a chocolate lover like a chocolate fountain. Just think of all of the different fruits, salty snacks, and candies you can cover with chocolate … and nothing else. (Giggity.)

The Pro 3-Tier Chocolate Fountain from Wilton is relatively inexpensive versus some other fountains, yet it works great for dipping all kinds of foods for your chocolate fondue. This fountain will allow you to melt up to four pounds of chocolate at a time.

Chocolate Kisses

Chocolate kisses can be a unique chocolate gift for Valentine’s Day. No, not the foil-wrapped chocolates from Hershey’s that you can pick up anywhere, but a box of chocolates from Mr. Chocolate called The Kissing Game. As you remove and eat each of these chocolate bonbons, you’ll see a message underneath with suggestions on ways to kiss your significant other. Chocolate and fun, all in one box!

Chocolate Lovebugs

If you’re a fan of chocolate-covered insects, sorry to disappoint you, but they did not make our list of unique chocolate gifts for Valentine’s Day. Instead, we found these chocolate lovebugs, which are hand-painted chocolate honey caramels, decorated to look like bees and ladybugs from John and Kira’s.

Chocolate Pizza

I can’t quite imagine how this tastes, but it’s one of the more unique chocolate gifts for Valentine’s Day you’ll find. NomNom Delights has created a chocolate pizza, consisting of popcorn and heart shaped candies drizzled in chocolate. If your sweatheart is a pizza fan, this gift is going to win you points for creativity.

Godiva Chocolates

Godiva is the name when it comes to chocolates, and its Signature Chocolate Truffles Gift Box is impressive. This box isn’t cheap, but the best rarely is. And although the truffles come in a box, it’s not red or heart-shaped, so it won’t look like a last-minute option from the nearby “Quick Stop” store. (Then again, if you have a convenience store in your neighborhood that sells Godiva chocolates, maybe you should be shopping there for your Valentine’s gift.)

Oreo Cookies

There are so many flavors of Oreo cookies on the market, it may seem as though it’s a silly gift idea, especially when you’re trying to impress someone with a unique idea. But Philadelphia’s Candies has put a twist on Oreo cookies, drizzling and dipping them in chocolate with hearts for decorations.

Sweet, Spicy and Salty Chocolates

If you’d like to try some different flavors with your chocolates, Alma Chocolate has a cool option for you. The sweet is covered with the chocolate coating on the candies. Salty is covered with lavender caramels and peanut butter cups. And spicy is covered with habanero caramels and Thai peanut butter cups.

Vegan Chocolates

There are vegan chocolate options in the market too, so that your significant other who is vegan doesn’t have to miss out on the chocolates that make this holiday so popular. Try the Vegan Cordial Cherries from Rose City, as these cherries are marinated in Kirsch and covered in vegan dark chocolate.
