Guys, we know you might not always look forward to Valentine's Day. It's not that you don't want to show affection to the special person in your life, but there's just so much pressure!  While we can't give you advice on which "fancy" gift to give on Valentine's Day, we certainly can help you with the "sweetest" gift of all... candy!
Each year, many candy manufacturers come out with trendy, new treats for holidays, and Valentine's Day is no exception.  However, there are some tried-and-true favorites that have withstood the test of time and are guaranteed to be a hit with your sweetheart.  So here are some of our faves - old and new - for you to consider this year:
Sweethearts aka Conversation Hearts
Conversation hearts are the classic Valentine's Day candy.  They have been around since the mid-1800s and are one of the most sought-after candies every year.  Buy some of your sweetheart's favorite candy bars, gum, or snacks and put them into a pink, red, or purple gift bag.  Use some colored tissue paper in the bag as well, then pour a package of conversation hearts into the gift bag as cute filler.

 
Giant Hershey's Kiss
A sweet kiss is so romantic on Valentine's Day, but a Giant Hershey's Kiss? An absolute must! Hershey's Kisses are another favorite Valentine's Day candy, and just as we love the little Hershey's Kisses, the giant ones are even more delicious.

Heart Shaped Box of Dunkin' Chocolates
Don't give your sweetie just any box of chocolates this Valentine's Day.  Take their love for Dunkin' and give them a special box of chocolates that come in the flavor of three of the most popular Dunkin' Donuts flavors - Chocolate Creme, Brownie Batter, and Boston Kreme.  Giving this box of chocolates may lead to you being mistaken for Cupid himself.

 
Reese's Giant Peanut Butter Hearts
When the package says, "better than a card" you gotta believe it!  After all, nobody can resist the delicious combination of Reese's peanut butter and milk chocolate.  These giant peanut butter hearts are a whopping 8oz each and since there are two in each pack there's one for you to enjoy as well.

Now that we have shared some of our top pics for Valentine's Day candy this year, be sure to pick some favorites of your own to add to a gift package and give to your sweetheart.  Just remember one thing... don't forget the card!
