To Cacao or Not to Cacao? Our 2026 Valentine’s Gift Guide for Every Budget

Love is in the air in London, and if you listen closely to the pots and pans in our London kitchen, you might even hear it whispering back.

As we approach February 14th, the pressure to find the "perfect" Valentine's chocolate gift can feel a bit like trying to temper chocolate in a heatwave: tricky, but not impossible with an expert by your side.

Whether you are in the first "honey-moon" phase of a relationship or celebrating decades of shared tea and toast, we believe everyone deserves a taste of the extraordinary.

From thoughtful tokens to grand, show-stopping gestures, we’ve curated a guide for every budget that celebrates British creativity and, of course, the world's finest sustainable cocoa.

The Thoughtful Token (Gifts under £15)

You don’t need a King’s ransom to make a Queen (or King) feel special. Sometimes, the most romantic gestures come in small, pocket-sized packages.

• The "Bee Mine" Bars: Our classic bars have returned in a charming 20g "pocket" format. At this price point, you can pick a few: perhaps the Arriba Nacional Milk Salted Caramel or the Tangy Raspberry to show you know their specific palate.

• A Mini Selection: Our Mini Truffle Tubs are the ultimate "I’m thinking of you" gift. With five cocoa-dusted Salted Caramel truffles or Marc de Champagne delights, it’s just enough to start the day on a sweet note.

• A Bit of Fun: For those who enjoy a bit of tongue-in-cheek romance, our 6-piece gift boxes, like the "Cat That Got the Cream" selection, are expertly ribboned by hand and ready for gifting.

The Romantic Ritual (Thoughtful Gifts under £50)

If you are looking to spend an evening sharing a box and a bottle of something bubbly, these selections are designed to encourage a bit of "quality time."

• Floral Fondant Creams: Our Rose and Violet Creams are a Rococo icon. Hand-topped with crystallised petals and made with organic essential oils, the 12-piece box is a timeless luxury Valentine's chocolate choice for the traditionalist.

• The Artisan Choice: Our 16-piece Chocolate and Truffle Selection is a curated journey through our best-selling milk, white, and dark ganaches. It’s the perfect size for two people to discover their new favourite artisan truffles together.

The Grand Declaration (Showstopping Selections)

For when you want to make a statement that can be seen from the other side of the King's Road, our larger boxes are the "pièce de résistance."

• An Indulgence of Chocolates: This 50-piece collection comes in a beautiful keepsake box with a pull-out drawer. It is a generous assembly of rich caramels, nutty pralines, and velvety ganaches that says "I love you" fifty times over.

• The Extravagance of Chocolates: For the ultimate chocolate gift experience, our 100-piece Extravagance box is simply unparalleled. It is a masterpiece of flavour and artistry, designed for those who appreciate the very finest things in life.

• The Queen of Hearts: This romantic red heart box is filled to the brim with our most romantic chocolates, including our luscious Marc de Champagne truffles, expertly crafted to ensure your Valentine feels like royalty.

Last but not least: if you truly want to say "So this is love," then the Devotion of Chocolate Box is your answer.

This enticing collection encapsulates the feeling of romance across 36 perfect morsels, matching comforting white, milk, and dark salted caramel truffles with romantic chocolate hearts.

We’ve even included bold, zesty lemon dark chocolate ganaches and indulgent dark chocolate pralines for a truly multi-texture chocolate experience.

No matter which size you choose, every Rococo gift carries the same promise: it is expertly crafted by our chocolatiers who will not compromise on quality.

We care deeply about the provenance of our cacao and ensure every bite reflects our commitment to excellence.

If you find yourself near one of our London shops, pop in and let us help you find the perfect match.

We can even help you pick a specific ribbon to ensure your gift is as unique as the person receiving it.

Happy Valentine's Day - may your heart (and your box) be full!
