Valentine’s Day Isn’t the Same Without A Marcolini Love Heart

Chocolate is a beloved aphrodisiac, so it’s unsurprising that it’s been used in romantic rituals for centuries. Nobody understands sweets better than Pierre Marcolini. With every ingredient handpicked and every recipe passionately felt, hearts have never been this delicious. They say music is the food of love, but cacao is even better.

The History and Significance of Heart-Shaped Chocolate Boxes

Valentine’s Day has been around even longer than your favourite chocolate box. The oldest Valentine was delivered to a loved one all the way back in 1415. No matter where you go or which language you speak, everyone interprets the heart symbol the same way. Its romance traces back to 1333, but it only appeared in milk chocolate form when a chocolatier created the first love heart chocolate box gifts for Valentine’s Day in 1861. They were instantly popular, so almost 50 years later, the first candy hearts hit the shelves.

The Rise of Heart-Shaped Boxes in Popular Culture

Mankind has been using cacao beans as a love food since Mayan times. Versailles residents adored milk chocolate truffles, which Madame du Barry used to inspire her lovers. Sugar is sweet, but love is sweeter, and it’s only natural that the two have become synonymous.
The 1933 movie, Dinner at Eight, connected chocolate and love forever, but chocolate hearts only became trendy 50 years later. The first Valentine’s Day was celebrated in 496 AD, but it only grew into a global celebration in the 1700s. Maybe chocolate had something to do with its rising popularity. Pierre Marcolini certainly likes to think so.

Designing the Perfect Love Heart Chocolate Box

Pierre Marcolini’s “Shapes of Love” chocolate collection was designed to represent diverse passions on the premise that every love is unique. It’s presented in five recipes that are each surprising in their own way. Every relationship is different, so every chocolate heart is different, too. You’ll find everything from hazelnuts and chocolate truffles to pistachios and passion fruit. The subtle sesame and yuzu recipe balances its two core ingredients in a light praline. If a box of milk chocolate truffles doesn’t excite you, the large praline and vanilla heart is sure to impress. It packs creaminess, crunch, and intensity into every delicious bite.
The Plumier of Hearts is perfect for adventurous palettes. Far from the peanuts and strawberry-flavoured chocolates you might find on supermarket shelves, it contains luscious ganache with fruits and salted caramel. Whether you prefer your love heart chocolate in dark chocolate or light, you’re assured of subtle flavourings and superb recipes. This year, Marcolini also presents a limited edition Valentine’s wrapping for his famous homemade praline.
