For February 14th, Ethel M Chocolates launched a special-edition Valentine's truffle box that can be packaged and paired with a bottle of champagne of wine.
The four-piece Champagne Truffle Collection is packaged in a hanger box that may be displayed around the neck of a bottle, making a pleasing presentation that also has the potential to elevate gifting and eating experiences. The decadent Champagne Truffles take the form of milk chocolate truffles that are infused with a champagne filling.
For celebrations on and around Valentine's Day, Ethel M Chocolates also launched heart-shaped collectible tins and the Smile Collection, which features some of the most beloved treats year-round in a holiday-themed box.
