Cha Cha Chocolate

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Here’s a super last minute idea or more likely – an early idea for next year. Just something quick and cute.

And if you don’t need any treats, you might want to mosey on down towards the middle of this post.

I made little heart chocolates. Hi.

IMG_6110

And packaged them up like tiny candy bars. Too cute. And thanks for reading.

This is super easy. You’ll need a candy mold though. The product number is in the photo below if you want to search for it. I found mine at Cake Art. The squares are 1.25 inch.

And because I have a mini candy coating store growing in my kitchen, I decided to use some of it up for these.

Melt pink candy coating and then using a toothpick, draw heart shapes in the cavity of the candy molds. Let it dry and then pour melted chocolate candy coating over the top. Mercken’s is what I used for these. Fill the cavity enough so it reaches the corners without overflowing and then tap the mold on the counter to settle and even out the coating. Repeat with the remaining cavities. Place in the freezer for a few minutes to set and then pop them right out of the mold and place on wax paper. Repeat and repeat until you have what you need.

Of course, you make these even easier and unwrap existing candy bars to use.

Now the fun part. I had these pink foil wrappers that were lonely and waiting to cuddle something. They were really too big for the bars I made so I cut them in half.

Lay the chocolate on the wrapper, fold the two short pieces first and then the long ones.

The foil is super thin so you can press it pretty flat.

These are also fun to wrap up your cake pops if you do simple decorations.

After your bars are all wrapped in foil, you can add paper wrappers.

I created these with different sayings.

Even one for the pinterest lovers out there.

Here’s a pdf if you want it.

IMG_6104

Making your own wrappers is a cute gift or favor idea. Use the same process and create your own wrappers for your theme. You can turn any candy bar into something a little more special.

But now let me tell you why I really made these.

I bought something for myself a few weeks ago that I thought was the cutest thing ever.

Or at least the cutest thing that week.

It was on sale thank goodness. Wanna see?

It goes with the theme so far.

And it’s really what inspired these tiny wrapped chocolate bars.

But this chocolate is a little bit bigger.

And sassier.

The good thing is it won’t melt in my hands.

Check it out. A Cha Cha Chocolate Clutch.

IMG_5896

From Kate Spade.

Loving the label.

IMG_5917

And look at the chocolate candy clasp.

I die.

IMG_5926

And the inside lining. So cute.

IMG_5922

It’s pretty big, too. Actually it’s a really big clutch.

IMG_6184

Big enough to carry all my cha cha chocolates.

IMG_5944

Thankfully it has a chain strap, too.

IMG_6163

And yes, I couldn’t help but make little Cha Cha labels. It’s just too much fun to say.

But I haven’t mentioned the best part about this bag. It turns out I didn’t just buy one.

Yep. Right now I have one for each hand and that just looks plain silly.

So who wants to help me out and take one of these off my hands?

  1. Super, super, super cool!
    Love how you come up with such amazing ideas!! I’m thinking I might just use the plastic Ferrero Rocher cases to make these on a weekend after eating up all of ’em :D

    My special someone – too difficult to choose one person, because it’s my whole family that I love the most … and miss the most after getting married & moving here. Love them more than I love my husband.

  2. My sweetie willingly made two trips to the grocery store because I didn’t have two ingredients to make our V-day dinner, which was made on a whim. Love. Such a sweetie, and he didn’t get mad.

  3. Awesome combination…Kate Spade purse and chocolate!!
    3 kiddos=3 forever valentines!

  4. My little girl, who is 3, is the sweetest. She is my perfect little valentine! :)

  5. My future hubby is so amazing. I love the way he calms me down and makes me so grateful for all that I have in my life because I find that too often we forget how much the little things mean to us.

  6. Love, love, love it! And I know my 13 year old daughter would love it too – she’s not the “girliest” but is trying to be more so, and I know this bag would bring a smile to her face!

  7. My valentine was my 6month old beagle puppy and we spent it watching the westminister dog show (the hound group in particular :) )

  8. Those choccies are adorable!

    My Mummy is amazing. She’s always been there for me for as long as I can remember. I’m so thankful to have her with me. Love her!

  9. My husband is the best. He has been helping me so much with things around the house and such (without me evan asking) as I have been busier than usual with a new job.

  10. Adorable – and it’s easy to say something sweet about someone I love – given the chocolate theme of this post – I’ll start with my oldest boy Kyle Reese. He’s 9 and someone very unique and special, so special that I named him after 2 of my favorite things – chocolate and peanut butter. I absolutely adore my youngest Adam Michael (I couldn’t find any chocolate that worked with Adam) – he’s 6 and makes me laugh every day. My husband is my world and makes my heart smile, and without him I wouldn’t have my boys.

  11. The bag is so cute…cha cha ching if I win ;)

  12. Bakerella, I love your treats but I have to confess that I ADORE handbags!!!! I’m very good at handing over money and buying them too! So I’ll need to say something sweet about my husband: he never ever complains when I treat myself to a new designer bag, and just nods when I say that I am making an “investment.” Happy Valentine’s Day!

  13. You are extremely talented, to say the least! How can I not be tempted to make these, they’re so cute!

    My Valentine is my twin sister and nephew, they are my everything! For them I would do anything and everything. They are forever my Valentines :)

  14. I’m giving love to everyone today cos I feel great! Free love here!!!!

  15. Too adorable!!! Pick me!!!

  16. Ooooh, I would love that clutch. :)

    I love my baby brother, he is so creative, caring, and sweet, and is so special to me.

  17. My mom is the most selfless, kind-hearted person I know. I am so blessed and so thankful to have a mother like her, who has shown me such unconditional love.

    and thank you BAKERELLA for giving all of us a chance to win such an adorable clutch!

  18. Hi, I love chocolate. :o)

  19. My bf gives the best hugs – sometimes they’re the only thing that can cheer me up after a bad day

  20. My husband is the most A-MA-ZA-ZING Valentine ever. He is so thoughtful. Valentine’s Day is always special to us because it is the day we got engaged (pretty awesome) and he has made every one since then just as special. No one could ask for a better Valentine!

  21. My Mom and Dad are absolutely great :) I can’t thank them enough for all the love, help and support they’ve shown me over the years!

  22. I love love love my daughter… best thing that ever happened to me and my hubby

  23. That bag is so sweetly awesome! Almost as sweet as my husband. He rubs my feet every night, as I am on them all day at work, no sitting for me!

  24. These are adorable and perfect for this time of year! My favorite things – chocolate and accessories!

    My shout-out to someone I love is to my mom, who is one of the best people I know. I hope I can be half the woman she is.

  25. I’d love to win the purse!

  26. YOU!…are so sweet to always do such fun things for your readers. It makes me want to do fun things for others also.

  27. Yum! My wife, always goes out of her way to make everyday a good one for me. She really cares about me and is the best valentine a person could want! I would love to give her this purse as a gift because she really wanted it!

  28. I love the chocolates… so cute! I wish I had the artistic skills to pull something like that off. My special someone is my wonderful boyfriend who make me pancakes for breakfast on Tuesday. They were delicious

  29. I love love love my family!

  30. Happy 60th birthday to my Valentine husband of 34 years!

  31. Love the chocolates and the purse! I actually have two people…my mother is #1…she is the best. Always supportive of what ever I want to do. She’s not only my mom but my best friend. Next would be my beautiful niece. She is 14 and not only beautiful on the outside but inside too. She lives with me and is really a joy (and yes, sometimes a handful) to have around.

  32. I love this idea!! So cute.

  33. Too cute!!!! I’m greatful for my amazing hubby, he is wonderful to us!

  34. I love my hubby of course. He’s gracious and consistent, charming and loveable. Valentine’s day is his birthday, so happy birthday my love!

  35. I had the sweetest valentines day love from my 20 year old daughter. She left me flowers, candy, and a card….. saying, “Happy Valentines Day Mom. Thank you for all that you do for me. Have a great day. I love you.” It felt so good to know that she indeed has appreciated everything I have done for her. I cried happy tears……. I knew that I had done a good job being her mom.

  36. Super cute… though I don’t have that much patience!

    This year, my hubby surprised me with tickets to see The Vow… even though I hadn’t mentioned to him that I wanted to see it. I know there was no way he’d want to sit through that movie, but he did, just because he knew I would love it!

  37. So cute, I’ve never tried candy molds but you make them look so easy. Looking forward to as a new project to tackle.
    My special someone is my husband. He makes it possible for me to fulfill my dreams and has been supportive every step of the way.

  38. WHat a great clutch!! I would love to send love out to my sister in law – she’s been going through a rough time, but I know her strength will get her through – that and all the love from her family…

  39. CUTE!!!! My hubby is the best part of my day.. The one I wake up to in the morning, and the person I can’t go to bed without.

  40. I wanted to thank my husband Kevin for his sweet and thoughtful Valentine’s gift of hand made coupons for various things from doing dishes and laundry to foot rubs and toenail and fingernail painting. Very sweet and thoughtful and the best gift ever. Even if we did have lots of dough, I would rather have these! <3

  41. My husband is very sweet – he almost always cooks dinner and does the dishes. That’s love!

  42. My husband and I have had our ups and downs, mostly while dating. Since we’ve been married in May of 2008, our love for each other has grown so much. He’s been gone for the past 5 months for Air Force training and is coming home this Friday! We have two daughters and he adores them. He showers me with words of affirmation (my love language) and encourages me to do what I love. He is constantly reminding me to draw closer to the Lord and put Him above all else. He is truly my best friend, my soul mate, and a wonderful husband. I love him so much!!

  43. I love my two children because they challenge me to want to be better on a daily basis. Better for them, better for me, and better for our future.

  44. My sweet little pup Lola was my valentine this year!

  45. While I don’t have a significant other, my Valentine was my mom. Our relationship has blossomed as each year goes by and no matter what (even when there is 800+ miles between us), she is always there for me. She’s simply the best.

  46. This year I’m entering my 5th year of marriage with my Valentine. Geek love truly is great love. I couldn’t have asked for a better friend, let alone a partner for life.

  47. LOVE LOVE LOVE this! Especially the zero calorie part :) My husband is my valentine and every year I love him more, not sure how that works, but it’s true!!! I love my “trelley” :)

  48. Love the clutch, almost a much as chocolate. I love my hubby. He makes every day like Valentine’s Day!

  49. I LOVE Kate Spade. OMG that’s the cutest clutch EVER! And filled with the cutest chocolates! Such a brilliant idea. Wow!

    I had a wonderful Valentine’s day – sent eCards to my mom, dad and sister (their reactions were priceless) and had a night at home with lovely boyfriend, eating wonderful homemade food!

    And we watched Ondine – I’m a sucker for selkie movies. Must be the Irish in me!

  50. Wow! Cute and yummy in one fell swoop. My husband is the sweetest man I know. Love him to pieces!

  51. Love that clutch. My boyfriend made me a wonderful valentines dinner complete with 2 dozen red roses! He is amazing.

  52. I wish I could spend Valentine’s Day with my Mommy, she’s the best and most supporting mother anyone could ever ask for! And even after everything she has been through, she would do anything for my brother and I. I love you, Momma!

  53. My daddy is my favorite valentine :)

  54. Super cute clutch!! I love my daughter!! She was born on Valentine’s Day, and she is definitely our love baby, she turned 4 yesterday!! Love you Cora!

  55. My husband is the sweetest! He baked me a chocolate cake for Valentines!

  56. Ho Ho Ho Holy Schnikes! That is the cutest Kate ever!! I would LOVE to fill it with some special home made cha cha chocolates!

  57. my valentine is my mom, she’s the most caring lady in the world

  58. My husband is my special person always & forever! He is helping me get through my brush with breast cancer! He is very sweet and attentive.

  59. I seriously can’t decide which is more adorable, the chocolates or the clutch! I can’t WAIT to make these, you make everything so easy.

    My special someone is my boyfriend Dave. We met in college in New Jersey, where he’s originally from. I’m originally from Texas. Now I’m attending grad school at NYU and he’s a Border Patrol Agent in Texas! Talk about irony! It’s hard being apart from each other, but the amount of unconditional love he shows me makes it easy for us to get by until we can be together.

    It’s so sweet to see all the love on the comments!

  60. You are so creative. Thanks for the awesome ideas!
    I will have to say thanks to my husband who works so hard to take care of myself and our kids. He leaves the sweetest little love notes for me. He is the best. I love you Honey!

  61. We have handbag auction coming up to benefit Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition. This would be perfect for it. I love all the hard work that my friend at the Coalition are doing to find forever homes for foster kids. They are amazing.

  62. My husband is amazing, he can always make me laugh which is great because I’m a very serious person.

  63. Aww these are adorable. I am blessed with an amazing boyfriend, truly a blessing from above. He is what I always prayed for and God has answered my prayers. I wish that I can truly show him how much i love him but there are not enough words that can express it.

  64. Once again you have delivered a great and simple idea. Thanks. My sweetie is my 9 year old Daughter. She has brought a lot of joy into my life.

  65. My best valentine’s gift was my husband being at home – he travels so much (especially lately to Angola, West Africa) so actually being HOME on this day was very special!

  66. I love my dog – she is old and falling apart but she still snuggles with the best of ’em and it makes my day every time that fuzzy head presses into my side.

  67. I became addicted to your website and amazing creations! It is only natural, for a Swiss choco-holic!^^
    I tried to create your “chocolate box made of cake” for my Little Dragon (my boyfriend) for our special Valentine’s. It was great fun! I had to used almond paste instead of fondant and the result was not as gorgeous as yours, of course, but my Valentine was really happy and touched! He deserves a lot of sweets for his sweetness!^^ Many thanks, dear Lady Bakerella, for your wonderful ideas!

  68. I have 5 sweet Valentines, and I adore each and every one of them for the daily joy and laughter they bring me! The biggest of them is my dear husband who truly does “complete me” (cliche or not–he does!), and the other four are ages almost-11, 9, 7,and 5. <3

  69. my husband rocks my socks off!

  70. I would have to leave a shout out for my mom who loves me unconditionally and is the best shopping buddy ever.

  71. My valentine took me to a place called the Chocolate bar for valentines day and the chocolate was amazing and so is my valentine :) I think this clutch would be perfect for the next time we go to the chocolate bar :)

  72. So cute!!! I love my adorable kids. :) Even though they drive me absolutely bananas sometimes, they never fail to put a smile on my face and make me realize how lucky I am.

  73. I love my Hubs! He is so good to me. :) Super-cute clutch!

  74. I will move heaven & earth for my kids.

  75. My Valentine’s this year were my handsome boyfriend Eric and our wonderful Boston Terrier Diesel. There are so many things I love about them both; however, what I love most is Eric’s dedication to everything and everyone he loves. As for Diesel, I love his Diesel-ness (everything about him)!

  76. Love your candies! Love the clutch! Love Kate Spade!
    Love my husband! He’s the sweetest, the best, the most awesome guy!!

  77. Love my husband who works hard which allows me to stay home with our little ones. :)

  78. In all seriousness, I’m in love with you and your ideas. I look a tthose candy molds and think, “Oh, squares of chocolate, that’s *creative*” (note the oozing sarcasm) – so it is always great to know that you were brought onto this world to inspire people. To think outside of the ‘square’, if you will. Love this!

  79. Love it all!! some chocolate making is now on my DIY to do list..thanks for the great post!
    My special someone is my soulmate, bestmate, husband x (who would love the chocolates too!

  80. Hi Bakerella!

    Hope you’re valentines day was sweet!

  81. I am in love with all things Kate Spade. But I really love my best friend Jenny. She is always ther for me.

  82. I feel lucky that I have family friends and a lovely man in my life. Valentine’s Day or not, I like to let people know I love them any day of the year.

  83. The man I love wishes me a good day, every day, when he’s about to leave for work while I am still snoozing in bed. I feel so lucky!

  84. I spent my first Valentine’s with my new husband. He is my favorite person. I am so glad we found each other.

  89. My husband has been the sweetest guy lately! I am 7 months pregnant and we are so excited to meet our little daughter soon. Even though he has been working extra hours at work for the past few weeks, he has still taken on the majority of the housework so I can rest and prop my feet up. Doing dishes, laundry, and going grocery shopping! What’s sweeter than that? :)

  90. I’m so glad I came across this. I was looking at the Napoleon Blog as well! I’ll let you know if I find a good place because I’m on the hunt as well.

    My shout out is to my sweet little boy. He has been the best Valentine ever!

  91. My daughter, who is 4, totally got Valentines day this. She gasped and squealed when she saw the note daddy left on her vainty mirror when she woke up. He even made a I LOVE YOU out of pink heart stickers.

    I enjoyed leaving cute post its “Love” notes in my husbands wallet and son’s lunch box- It wasn’t as much of a hit as daddy’s note was to Zada.

    I love reading your site, I love to bake, and I am inspired to try new things. and of course I like to take totally rad images of the stuff I bake!

  92. I’ve been working like a crazy person for the last couple of weeks, and my fiance has been going above and beyond to help out- meeting me for lunch, doing my taxes, picking up the slack at home, and reminding me every single day why I love him. Yay :)

  93. For all my mums hard work I made her some of your red velvet cupcakes and she LOVED them!! : )

  94. My special someone is my husband of nearly 15 years. He makes me laugh, he accepts my flaws and neuroses, and he is a wonderful father to our two daughters (and will be to the new daughter on the way!).

  95. LOVE the bag1 I am so lucky to have the best valentines in my life! My husband and three amazing kiddos.

  99. My husband has taken such good care of me this week, i have bronchitis and coughed all the way through Valentine’s Day, but he gave me kisses and a present anyway :)

  100. Wow! Those look super cute and I AM IN LOVE with Pinterest! I don’t have a valentine this year so I’ll say something sweet about my mom! She always puts others before herself!

  101. To my boyfriend Lars,
    who writes the sweetest love notes and lists of things he misses about me when he’s away, I love you so much. I miss your little eyebrow quirk which tells me you’re thinking about making decisions, and the way you squeeze my hand to know you’ll always be there for me.

    Happy Valentine’s Day,
    Samie

  115. I got to spend my Valentine’s snuggling with one of my best friends’ little boy while I was babysitting. He was the sweetest Valentine I’ve had in a while.

  116. i love my sweetie because even though this i was sick on valentine’s day, we had more fun together eating chicken and dumplings in our pajamas on the couch, than i can imagine having with anyone else on valentine’s day. plus the chocolate mousse cake for dessert certainly helped too :)

  117. The chocolates and purse are so cute! I”d love to win!

    It is easy to say something sweet about my hubby! He always knows how to lift me up when I need a little boost. I’m so glad I was able to get home from a business trip in time to celebrate Valentine’s Day with him last night!

    My mother-in-law really gets the props this year because she dropped by with brownies just to say Happy Valentine’s Day last night! She’s sweet too!

  118. QUE LINDOS!! THEY ARE SO CUTE!!, I’ll try to make them, I know I am going to make a mess. My special someone is my husband, who alwyas reminds me to never loose my inner child.

  119. I’m lucky enough to still be madly in love with my high school sweetheart– who’s possible even sweeter than cha cha chocolate :-)

  120. Oh, my husband, Dave. He’s just absolutely the best match for me. He’s my best friend and my better half and completely complements all my quirks while somehow managing to not have too many of his own. ;) :) Plus he’s amazingly sweet to me, his family, our pup and is the ideal uncle-playmate with all our nieces and nephews.

  121. I’m so in LOVE with my hubby. I know that God created him and I just at the right time so we can have each other for ever and ever. So blessed to have him in my life!!!

  122. Tiny adorable chocolate bars. I can’t handle it.

    My boyfriend keeps me grounded and calm throughout all my crazy little quirks and still, somehow, loves me. He’s pretty much the yin to my yang.

  123. The purse and tiny candy are so unbelievably adorable!!!!

    I was unable to be home for Valentine’s as I had to take my board recertification exam on Wednesday morning so my kids and husband left me the sweetest cards underneath my pillow~I love them all so much!

  124. I love my bulldog, Lola….she cuddles with me at lunchtime and helps the rest of the day bearable!!!! : )

  125. Oh Valentine’s Day…my wonderfully sweet boyfriend of just a few months spoiled me rotten for the holiday…roses, a romantic dinner and chocolate covered strawberries he made himself…I felt like the luckiest girl in the world :)

  126. I think that purse is quite adorable! I also love the chocolates, so creative! Hmm… well my daughter, is someone I love. She is so sweet and kind. She always tries to help me around the house, and helps me with everything; I really appreciate her!

  127. My husband and 2 kids are the best Valentines. They are sweet and thoughtful, great helpers around the house, and they give the best hugs and kisses!

  128. Sweet are my two teenage sons. They both told he Happy Valentine’s Day! My hubby and I spent a nice breakfast with a friend, and a grand day was had by all! Kate Spade could kick it up a notch… I mean, after all, it has purple in the design!

  129. That is such a cute clutch (and chocolate idea)! A must have for chocolate (and Kate Spade!) lovers!

    My valentine calls me Mommy and I love it! He’s the best 5 year old son anyone can ask for. As often as he gets on my nerves (lol), he still puts a smile on my face.

  130. I love my husband. He’s stuck with me through everything life has thrown at us over the past 23 years. He is THE BEST!

  131. I could not ask for a better husband. He is taking care of me after surgery but still found the time to get me a beautiful gift and my mom a card as well. I am blessed!

  132. I love my husband, who has been away from me and our two beautiful little girls for almost 7 months while he serves and protects our country. Praying every single day that he comes home safe.

  133. I’m a single lady, but I wouldn’t be anywhere without my grand group of friends! They’re my Valentines, now and forever!!

  134. Does the winner get the chocolates you put in this awesome little clutch?!?! :) I would love to carry that around! Keep up the awesome work!

  135. That purse is precious! I have a great friend who is amazing! He is the most understanding and compassionate person I know. (:

  136. My husband is my favorite person. We’ve been married for 13 years, and we get to be a better and better team each year!

  137. Love love love these chocolates!

    My husband is the cutest, most hilarious man there is. Hard to beat, buy I love him more then chocolate!!

  138. My Valentine this year was my Grandma… I love her to death, and she is sassy and rebellious so the clutch fits. We didn’t do anything to exciting, but we spent the day together.

  139. I bought a card yesterday with a porcupine on it. It said inside ‘I love you because you love me when I am prickly.’ At times after baking in my kitchen and sending the odd disaster in the trash I can be a grouch. Thankfully it is not often but my hubby knows that ‘this to shall pass’ and he just gives me a pat on the back and a kiss on the forehand and leaves me be. I am very grateful for that.

  140. Such Cute chocolates, much better than standard store bought!

    My someone special is My BFF Nancy, She may not be my valentine but our Bake-Dates beat hanging out with any man, AND you get cake at the end! :)

  141. My three children are the light in my life. They bring me more joy and sunshine than any other on earth. They have been my reason to be happy and to get through the rough times. I love them dearly with all of my heart and knowing that they are mine forever truley is like having a little bit of heaven on earth!

  142. I love all of your ideas, they are always so cute! My Valentines are my two son’s. I’m blessed that they have turned out to be wonderful young men.

  143. My husband and 2 sons are the sweetest valentines I could ever hope for! Everyday they make me smile. :)

  144. I have an amazing Best Friend! My Friend Kerri and I had been friends from 7th grade and through our Junior year in H.S. when we went our seperate ways. And now, 20 years later, we have reconnected and it’s just like it always was.

  145. My man of 20 plus years loves me and shows it every day in the way he cares for me and my family. Love him – – and love this clutch! thanks, Bakerella!

  146. Oh my, it’s to die for! I looooooove it!!!!

  148. I LOVE Kate Spade!!!!!! Oh, I die : ) I would have to say I loved coming home to my sweet Valentine Jack yesterday – he is the best of part of my day!

  149. I said a bunch of sweet “what I love most” in a fb status update yesterday and was surprised how many of my friends jumped on it and left really sweet comments. For those of you who didn’t have anyone saying sweet things to you yesterday- you are incredible for being you.

  150. Well Im late to the game, but I just want to say how much I enjoy your blog. :)

    As for my valentine…its my beautiful 9 year old son, Trevor. He is so smart, articulate, athletic and the sweetest boy a mom could ask for. I’m pregnant with his baby brother right now and every day he talks to my belly and tells him all the fun things he can’t wait to teach him and show him when he gets there and he always ends by saying “I love you”. He just absolutely melts my heart every time. I’m one lucky mom :)

  151. I love my mom. I surprised her this weekend by taking her out to eat.. She kept trying to pay for it! I told her I wanted to thank her for all she has done for me! I love her! :)

  152. I love chocolate.. So I will accept ur gift only with Cha Cha Choclate bars inside :)

    Someone I love?.. They are two! My little baby-twins. I love them so much, they changed my life and made me happy. I will always love them…

  153. I love my sweet children. They melt my heart everyday with just a smile.

  154. I would loooooooooove (yes, the extra “o”s are needed) to have this clutch. I saw it before and I just fell in love with it.

    My friends: (Ryan, Elise, Hope, Elanah, & Moira) You guys are the rock and roll of my life. Pushing me to expand my horizons while keeping true to myself. Heart ya!

  155. Love these! My husband and two,little boys are my special people. Today is my birthday, and they always make me feel so special, but especially on Valentines and my birthday, even they are side by side.

  156. My someone special is my amazing boyfriend. I must say, he knows me better than I know myself. He is not only my boyfriend, but my best friend, better half and everything. I don’t know what I would do without him.

    This valentine’s day not only did he give me flowers, chocolates and a bracelet, but best of all, he gave me the “CAKE POPS” book!

    I can’t wait to get started on some pops!

  157. AWESOME!

    THANKS FOR THE GREAT GIVEAWAY OFFERING!

    MY WIFE IS A HUGE KATE SPADE FAN AND WOUD LOVE THIS PURSE!

    HER ‘LOVING SPIRIT’ ADDS A TOUCH OF SUNSHINE TO EVERYONE SHE MEETS!

    AND DID I MENTION SHE MAKES A ‘KILLER’ BLUEBERRY COBBLER!

    YUM! YUM! YUMMY!

    ALMOST AS ‘SWEET’ AS HER MORNING KISSES!!!!!

  158. Sweet is that my darling husband knows my love language and did the dishes yesterday~ heaven! =)

  159. Oh my gosh so adorable. Ginny- you are so brave and I am so proud of you!

  160. My daughter is always making us cards and my son is always giving me what he calls “my favorite present” (a hug). They are very sweet.

  161. my sister is just the sweetest person ever. she is always ready to skype if i need to talk, and i could never thank her enough for that.

    oohh chocolate.

  162. Those chocolates are so darling!
    My Valentines were my husband and son. On Valentine’s day I got a migraine and my husband let me sleep through it. If that wasn’t sweet enough, he cleaned the house and made me dinner while I was out. I’m a lucky girl!

  163. to my momma: happy valentines day. you do so much for everybody else, take some time and read a book and drink some tea and eat some cha cha chocolate.

    yay, this bag is gluten free!!!

  164. because i am totally single, this one goes out to my dog. you are the best company i could ever ask for. and if you eat this bag i will stop soaking your kibble in chicken broth for a week. love you, fluffernutter.

  165. OMG, that is sooooo cute! I have to say something about my husband. He dug through my old cards and found the sweetest valentine card, wrote an awesome message on it an left it on my pillow. He is not very good at showing his emotions so this was extraordinarily sweet. I love that guy!!

  166. My husband is so wonderful and patient with me. He keeps an eye on me in case of an allergic reaction and keeps my mind off of my aneurysm (on the splenic artery, not my brain thankfully) for a long while. He is the most unselfish person I know. I’m so lucky to have him. Süsse, you’re the best!

  167. I love the way my son gets so over the top excited to give to others on Valentine’s Day (and every holiday.) Melts my heart. <3

  168. My brother remarried just over a year ago. We were close as kids, but drifted apart as adults. Especially after he married the first time. My new sister in law is the piece of our family that I never realized was missing. Her positivism, energy and loving spirit has really brought us all together. I would love to win the purse to gift to her.

    Thank you.

  169. Love the chocolates! So cute!
    I love my hubby more than words can say…he is my rock, my biggest supporter, the funniest person I know, and my best friend! :)

  170. Hi Bakerella! Thanks for hosting this giveaway.
    My husband was the sweetest Valentine, he woke me up with treats from a local bakery, flowers and a handmade card. As we enjoyed our breakfast he told me he had requested time off from work to spend the day with me (who is currently working night shifts). So we had a romantic, relaxing, and joyful day together!

  171. Sometimes i look at my baby and even if am bone tired, or frustrated, or just plain irked, they make me smile, just because they are so smile-worthy.

    OH MY GOSHNESS I LOVE THAT CLUTCH.

  172. This clutch is adorable. Almost as adorable as my husband. While we couldn’t spend Valentine’s Day together because he had to work, he did help me clean the house this morning. We also brainstormed some new furniture arrangements which is always fun!

  173. O.M.G.!!!!!!!!!!!! That is just TOO cute!!!!!! I didn’t have anyone to spend Valentine’s day with this year, but i could always make a little treat for myself and pretend someone else gave it to me hahaha

  174. WOW, that clutch!!! And I adore your chocolates! I take the “pin me” one! Thanks for the chance to win!

  175. Darling husband, I love you so much. You are incomparable.

  176. My valentine (aka my husband) spent our valentines evening changing the flat we got on the way to dinner, then our meal was less than accceptable and I fell right asleep when we got home. I gotta say he does the sweetest things that most people don’t even notice. Without him I would have been stranded with a flat tire, alone eating a good meal and staying up late becasue I wouldn’t feel safe enough to sleep. What would I do without him? Let’s hope I never have to find out!!

  177. Pintrest love! homemade chocolate love! that purse – love!
    but none as much as my wonderful husband and my two babes (a great dane named Colt and a husky/pointer mix named Mya) <3

  178. My husband is the best! He gets more romantic as the years go by. We are nearing 15 years together, can´t wait to see what he will be like when we celebrate 50!

  179. my valentine this year is my 16 month old goddaughter! she is the sweetest little girl i’ve ever known!

  180. these tiny chocolates are so darling! my valentine is my husband of 5 years. he is such a great guy and he is such a blessing in my life :)

  181. OH MY GOSH YES! How darling is that clutch?!

    My hubs and I shared a V-day cupcake and watched Glee last night to celebrate. Since our wedding anniversary is the 20th, we don’t usually do much for Valentine’s day. :)

  182. That is co cute. My daughter would love it. She is learning how to spell and loves to write notes and letters to people.

  183. The end of 2011 was really hard for my family and me. We lost our home to fire 3 days before Thanksgiving. I am so proud of how my three angles who were able to understand that this year would not be the year of really big and pricey gifts, but instead the gift of all 5 of us being healthy and safe, together.
    I love my family and I am so happy that the Lord bless me with such great and wonderful children and a strong and loving husband that has helped keep us together even when we felt like we would fall apart with the stress we are under.

  184. I love his sense of humor :)

  185. I have three best friends who mean the world to me, and in the past year, with their love & support, my self-confidence has grown so much, and I’m finally conquering the body image issues I’ve struggled with for the past couple of years – I can never thank them enough

  186. I am always in awe of your creations!

    My husband is sweet, charming, and funny. He is the light of my life and I am one of those girls that really, really looks forward to the end of his work day so I can see him again. I couldn’t have asked for more, he is absolutely perfect for me.

  187. Love my sweet husband and how he redeemed Valentine’s Day for me–first by proposing (it was the only day I would NOT have expected it–too cliche, she says!), and now by reminding me each year how blessed we are to have each other.

  188. I am so thankful for my 2 little men. The 7 month old can’t have chocolate yet, but the 3 year old is lod enough. But, turns out he doesn’t like chocolate. But that just means I have the perfect companion to share my chocolate croissants with: I eat the chocolate and he eats the pastry. It’s a match made in heaven!

  189. That clutch is adorable! Oh my gosh, I want it so badly. I hope I win!

    My puppy is the best Valentine out there, though she might be the messiest kisser.

  190. My husband is a very sweet, loving, dependable man! P.S. this clutch is too cute!

  191. These chocolates are so cute and so simple! Your work is truly inspiring ^^.
    Of course the someone special and sweet in my life is my mom. She has sacrificed so much to make sure her two daughters have a wonderful life. If it wasn’t for her will power and confidence in us, we would not be where we are today. I am forever grateful of my mom and what she does for us so selflessly. Happy Valentines Day to my mom and all the mom’s out in the world!

  192. Really super cute purse!

    My boyfriend is the best. He bought me super pretty Gerber Daisies for Valentines Day….along with Mr. Poppers Penguins and a penguin ornament. He’s really awesome and I’m lucky to have him :)

  193. I love the simply things my boyfriend does for me. And this clutch is too cute! :)

  194. I started college this year, and my first roommate totally ignored me. A friend from high school (we knew of each other, but had never been good friends) needed a roommate after her’s dropped out. Ever since then she’s been AWESOME. I probably would have dropped out and started at the community college if it weren’t for having an amazing friend like her! We’re both amazed that we were never friends before. Love her so much!

  195. My husband is the best Valentine! I adore him!!!

  196. Oh my…..lovely chocolates and a lovely clutch…you are so generous to so many….

  197. Love these chocolates and that clutch! My Valentine is my amazing boyfriend. He makes everyday seem like Valentine’s Day! Hope you’re feeling the love today :)

  198. My husband is the most amazing, wonderful, funny, handsome man I know. :-) Also, I LOVE these bags…saw them in a mag a couple of weeks ago and have been drooling. You know, because they’re chocolate-ish…? I do love them!

  199. The best valentine gift my husband could have ever given me was our baby boy!
