Countless people will be purchasing chocolate-dipped strawberries for Valentine's Day and Edible Arrangements is offering a fiery twist on this classic treat with its Love on Fire Box this year. In the box, there are six chocolate-covered strawberries that have been sprinkled with ghost pepper flakes, putting a spicy twist on an otherwise sweet pairing of fruit and chocolate.
The limited-edition gift will soon become available ahead of Valentine's Day, offering heat from ghost peppers that are 100 times hotter than jalapeno peppers. For those who want something spicy but with less intensity, Edible Arrangements is also offering the Burning Love Bouquet with semisweet-dipped strawberries with chipotle chili flakes, plus grapes and pineapple hearts.
