Free Valentine’s Day Chocolate

By Mavis Butterfield on -

Free Valentine’s Day Chocolate

This Giveaway Is Now Closed

For the past two years, the HH has given me a big box of chocolates from Wright Chocolate House for Valentine’s Day. Simply put, these are the BEST chocolates I have ever tasted. So I figured hey, why not share the love and give away some free Valentine’s day chocolate to a few of my favorite people? YOU!

Because seriously, who wouldn’t love a box of handmade chocolate’s from Maine this Valentine’s day? 

free valentine's day chocolateChocolatier Lynn Wright knows a thing or two about chocolate. Over the past 20 years she has developed over forty original recipes in her farmhouse test kitchen. 

Using ethically sourced chocolate and local ingredients from nearby farms and sugarhouses, she creates a unique array of seasonal chocolates and sells them online as well as in her chocolate shop in Limerick, Maine. 

Did I mention these are the best chocolates I have ever tasted? And I’ve tasted a lot of chocolate over the years!

And the packaging? HELLO! 

I love Maine. And because I love small businesses {especially tasty ones!} I love supporting them when I can by purchasing things I love and sharing them with YOU.

Giveaway

Three lucky people will each win a 15 piece Heart Box of Handmade Chocolates which includes both milk and dark chocolates.

All you have to do to enter this giveaway is to use the word “chocolate” in a sentence in the comment section below. If you use the phrase “life is like a box of chocolates” you will be immediately disqualified. 😉 . That’s it. That’s all you have to do.

Life, it’s pretty complicated sometimes, so I like to keep my giveaways pretty simple around here.

    • TC says

      Chocolate just makes the world a better place and brings happiness to all who receive some. Hoping you choose this transplated Brit to send a free box to as I have never won any giveaways ever and this would make my Valentine day
      special.

  22. Tina A says

    Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, any kind of chocolate – you are such a good friend of mine!

    the things you love.

  41. Jennifer says

    I didn’t care much for chocolate until I was pregnant with our first. I have made up for it in spades.

  45. Jacqui says

    Chocolate is my favorite!
    It beats out all the rest.
    And when it’s in a Heart-Shaped box
    It’s definitely the best!

  47. andrea d says

    If you give a mom some chocolate…does she hide it and eat it all herself, or share it with the kids?

  48. Amy Powell says

    We have a small local chocolate shop and growing up my mom and dad would give us a small box of 3 pieces of chocolate for Valentines Day and Easter. Small shops are the best!

    • Barb says

      Nothing is sweeter than chocolate! ♥️♥️ This is so kind of you to do! Happy Valentine’s Day!

  56. Becky S says

    I’m already teaching my almost 2 year old granddaughter that chocolate is SO yummy! She is a fast learner!

  76. Pauline in Upstate NY says

    You had me at chocolate… Would love to try the Wright’s box of love and would enjoy sharing it with the fam! What a great way to support a local business, too! Tell the HH that I say thanks for having such good taste. (Aside from the leg lamp thing )

  79. Brianna says

    I have been hiding my chocolate and sweet snacks in a Hearty Morning Fiber cereal box in the pantry for years.

  80. Ranee says

  83. Kristi says

    Those are the prettiest chocolate candies I’ve ever seen. I would love to taste them thanks for the chance!

  85. JB says

  91. Holly says

    My favorite – dark chocolate and caramel truffles coated with a sprinkling of coarse sea salt

  109. Sarah says

    When you love chocolate, sometimes it’s hard to share, but I couldn’t keep these beauties all to myself.

  111. Dawn Marberry says

    Chocolate is my favorite food group, followed by veggies. Hmm, chocolate covered veggies…

    Thank you for doing this. ☺

  112. Tracey says

    Some of these comments are cracking me up! What a beautiful artist with a delicious medium! Pretty chocolate! Could it get any better? Thanks for sharing your unique finds with us.

  116. Sara N Blanshard says

    I miss my beloved cat, Dewey, he of the lovely chocolate velvet fur, whose contrary ears twitched when I called his name.

  117. JamieH says

    I’m sat at my desk eating a chocolate bar reading your blog post about Valentine’s day chocolate. I think I might need to get up and rack up some steps on the fitbit!

  127. J in OH-IO says

    My dear Mother-in-Law used to always say, “You can never have too much chocolate!”
    Our family gave her Goumas Candyland truffles (her childhood favorite) for her birthdays and we still carry on her tradition of Goumas chocolate peanut butter eggs (with names piped on in colored icing) in our Easter baskets. Local small batch chocolates have a special taste all their own because they are hand crafted with love. If I win I will share the Wright Chocolates with my family. Thanks!

  140. Carla says

    I do love a good chocolate! I visit a local amish bulk foods store with the sole purpose of aquiring their Milk Chocolate Sea Salt Truffles.

    I walk out with $100 of other items, but they are the real reason I’m there.

  146. Sue says

    “If you are not feeling well, if you have not slept, chocolate will revive you. But I have no chocolate! I think of that again and again! Oh dear, how will I ever manage?”

    With apologies (but no regret) to the Marquise de Sévigné

    • Laura Brown says

      My daughter wants a box of chocolates, a toy, and flowers as a minimum for Valentine’s Day, and she’s only 13!

  154. Laura Z says

    That chocolate looks amazing! Thanks for your generosity and thanks for reminding us all to support local makers and growers! Happy Valentine’s Day!

  161. Pat says

    Mavis, it’s so generous of you to share your chocolate. I’ve never seen such intricately decorated chocolates – they are amazing!

    • Annie Millett says

      My son and his friend live in Switerland and came to visit me end of Dec to Jan. They brought me chocolate from Switzerland. I wish I had more! My son also used to live in Belgium, and their chocolate is also amazing! I can’t eat cheap American chocolate anymore as a result. I need me some chocolate. Now!

  166. KC says

    YAY for ethically sourced chocolate! (I wish they’d list *how* they ethically source it, though; but just about any attempt at it is going to be at least somewhat better than the behemoth buy-the-cheapest-beans-and-ignore-child-labor chocolate companies, so there’s that.)

  173. Kerah says

    The only thing better than chocolate is chocolate WITH a glass of wine. Thanks for the giveaway!

  177. Linda Sand says

    When young, my brother climbed up on the bathroom sink to reach the medicine cabinet where he found some chocolate. It was Ex-Lax.

  181. Christine says

    “Happiness. Simple as a glass of chocolate or tortuous as the heart. Bitter. Sweet. Alive.”

  186. Cindy Restrepo says

    I would love to celebrate Valentine’s Day with a box of the best chocolate you have ever tasted! Have a great day!

  190. SARAH S. says

    Chocolate and ice cream are the best due for motherhood and teenager daughters! Thankful for both relationships.

  192. Calico says

    In my job, (HR with a healthy dose of customer service) I frequently tell people “I take payment for services rendered in cash, check or chocolate!”

  195. Cathy Ting says

    I’m personally responsible for stocking the candy bucket at work but I’m not sure I could share these delicious looking chocolates! Yum

  196. Ashley Bananas says

    I love milk chocolate, and dark chocolate, but not white chocolate – because it has no cocoa and technically is not chocolate.
    Love,
    Ashley

  199. Sandy says

    I love chocolate and do not have a valentine this year. It would make my day (month/year) to win!

  201. Rachael says

    Who doesn’t love chocolate?

    Have you tried the chocolate sun butter cups at Trader Joe’s? They are delicious! The big ones, not the mini ones in the bag.

  202. Sam says

    Of all the food categories, chocolate truly needs to be on top. It’s our friend when we need one, and our reward for a battle won.

  205. Pamela Sheppard says

    At my last job we had an extensive candy case to create your own box of chocolates. I miss it so much. Great giveaway!

  212. Cam says

    You have never failed me your recommendations. I’m sure these chocolates will be no different!

  214. Lorie A. Hall says

    I have never visited Maine. But I would love to taste Maine through Lynn Wright’s beautiful chocolate creations.

  216. Ashley says

    My favorite chocolate shop decided to pursue something new so I need a new favorite. this is it, because that means it wasn’t hard to find!

    I would love to share these amazing chocolates with my family on Valentine’s Day! Thanks for an awesome giveaway!

  223. Nancy W says

    A giveaway involving chocolate is just about the best giveaway ever! Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy a delicious box of chocolates!

    So sweet of you Mavis 😉 I would love to compare your local Maine chocolates to our LA chocolates! Happy Valentine’s Day!

  227. Sue S. says

    They look like little chocolate petit-fours! Did you know that chocolate is actually good for you? Thank you Mavis and Wright’s Chocolates. Happy Valentines Day everyone❤️

  230. Mimi says

    We rarely eat desserts anymore but we do indulge in 1 small piece of chocolate every evening. It’s an essential vitamin.

  232. Linda G says

    My 49th anniversary is on Valentine’s Day and a box of chocolate would make the day extraordinary

  237. Dianne Labadie says

    Oh, this is wonderful looking chocolate. Very artistic.
    Thank you for giving us a chance to sample them. They look very good.

  238. Jim D says

    Chocolate. It’s the answer to any question that starts with who, what, why, and how (I couldn’t think of one starting with “Where”).

  240. Christy L says

    I would love to give these beautiful chocolates to my single-mom sister. She could use an encouragement right now.

  266. Marti says

    I would love to share some chocolates with my daughter who is going through cancer treatments.

  267. Jean C says

    I am a person who believes everyone should have some emergency chocolate stashed away for “emergencies”. My daughter and I visited Portland, Maine a couple years ago and had some of the best chocolate ever. Thanks for supporting small businesses.

  268. Sharon L Thompson says

    That is so kind of you! Sometimes it just takes one piece of good chocolate to make someone’s day.

  269. Sylvia Draughn says

    As an only child, chocolate became my only friend when I thought I had none. And was so easy to share when I had a friend.

  270. Amy Pinson says

    Thank you for an ethically sourced chocolate resource! So important! Look forward to trying them…

  272. ANGELA CHURCHILL says

    “What you see before you, my friend, is the result of a lifetime of chocolate.”

    ( I could not agree more 😉 )

  273. Arbie Goodfellow says

    And ode to Chocolate…
    In France they call you Chocolat
    In Sweden Choklad
    In Wales Siocled
    That brown melty mess in any language is the best!

  275. Jill Hamilton says

    “There’s nothing better than a good friend, except a good friend with chocolate,”

  278. Ca says

    I love, love, love 90% dark chocolate but of course I’d be very happy with a box from Wright’s Chocolate House! Thank you!

  284. Sherry says

    Went on a cruise one year with my sister, and one of the islands we visited was Domonica. We did an excursion to a chocolate plantation. They showed us the process from picking the pod of the tree to becoming chocolate. It was amazing. Never knew chocolate came from a pod growing on a tree.

  290. Teckla says

    Chocolate is like sunshine; it makes us happy! And a very happy, chocolatey Valentine’s day to you.

  293. Angela W. says

    Luxuriating in the true smoothness of chocolate on your toungue is certainly very delectable!

  307. Jennifer Caldwell says

    Oh my! A giveaway right up my alley. We are trying not to eat too much sugar, so I have to limit my chocolate but I can not resist that beautiful display at all.

    While we are on the subject of chocolate, our family just went to Puerto Vallarta where we took a two hour bean to bar chocolate workshop. We learned about the cacao bean and it’s history and made difference historical recipes. We roasted and peeled the beans, and she used the peels to make chocolate tea. Um, yuck. We then made the first hot chocolate recipe. Um, yuck. We followed the path until we had the melted chocolate that we are used to today and got to make our own chocolate molds to take home. It was super fun. Highly recommended if you ever go to PV.

    Thanks, Mavis, long time reader.

  308. Joan M Richard says

    I do love chocolate. It is the most versatile ingredient. I never understood how anyone could not love it lol BTW, thank you for your generosity.

  310. Nancy says

    Oh! Chocolate, my love! All of these people are pining for you, but, you and I both know that we are each other’s one truth. Make your way to me, you delightful dream. Let us melt away and become as one!

    Lol. Can you tell I love chocolate?

  315. Melinda says

    If you “eat first with your eyes,” this chocolate is all the more delicious. Robert Morris/Mod/Victorian!

  317. Vicki McTague says

    This box of chocolate would be lovely with a tall glass of milk and a good book. Happy Valentines Day!

  318. Chris M says

    Would chocolate taste just as lovely if it were another name?

    Fingers crossed … I’m having surgery tomorrow, so this would be a lovely get well gift.

  328. Loy Moore says

    Thank you for offering free chocolate. My HH birthday is 2/15 so what a gift that would be

  338. Holly Sieger says

    I would love to try this box of chocolate! My son and I are planning to visit Maine for the first time later this year. I think this would be the perfect introduction!

    Wow! There’s a lot of chocolate lovers who read your blog! We’d love to try these. Thank you!

  345. Leslie Polokonis says

    I think chocolate should be it’s own food group, but that will never happen. I would love to win this generous giveaway. Happy Valentine’s Day!

  353. Jenny Young says

    Money might not buy happiness, but it does buy chocolate. That’s pretty much the same thing.

    If you truly love someone, you’ll share your chocolate. Maybe.

    I love chocolate when I’m stressed, I love chocolate on days that end in Y, I love chocolates when I’m happy; oh and I love chocolate in beautiful boxes too!

  359. Tiffany F says

    My house smells heavenly right now! My daughter is trying out a new recipe for chocolate cookies. She chose a new baking cookbook by Duff Goldman at the library last week. She has tried a different recipe every other day since. Oh, the joys of having a daughter who also loves to bake! I’m off to enjoy a chocolate cookie and a cup of tea.

  364. Lori says

    You can never go wrong with chocolate. No matter the flavor.
    Chocolate is my favorite food group!

  366. Maddie Milton says

    Hi! I would love to give these to a special someone but don’t have the money! I LOVE CHOCOLATE!! Thank you for offering this!

  371. Barbara J Miller says

    Chocolate is like a best friend because it lifts you up when you’re feeling down.

  379. Lucy Ruple says

    I LOVE chocolate, any kind of chocolate. I love homemade creations, especially when it comes to chocolate. One of my favorite things that my husband and I used to do was go to The Melting Pot. For dessert, we would have the chocolate fondue. I would be honored to receive chocolates from Maine!

  380. Christy Rose says

    Chocolate should be one of the basic food groups as I for one can’t imagine not indulging in a piece every day!

  385. Jamie N. says

    Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. I like chocolate!!!! . Thanks for the giveaway. They look delicious!

  386. Judy T says

    We are supposed to have 5 servings of vegetables daily. If chocolate comes from cacoa and cacoa is a bean, is chocolate a vegetable?

  387. Linda says

    Chocolate, a glass of wine and a long warm bath fixes a bad day like nothing else. Indulgence at its best. Thanks Mavis for a fun and delicious giveaway!

  394. Daisy says

    Thanks for the introduction to this lovely chocolate. As an aside, have you ever tried Aldi chocolates? Start with the milk chocolate peanut butter cups. Thanks for the giveaway!

  397. Tonya says

    The best part of my day is making hot chocolate. Thanks for the giveaway and sharing some of your favorite things and chocolate with us.

  407. Anne Wiebe says

    Chocolate is my spirit animal. Chocolate is what I use to get going when I have to. Chocolate is how I reward myself. I just love chocolate!

  414. Carol Davis says

    One of my favorite childhood memories is my dad giving my mom a giant box of chocolate each Christmas. They are both gone now. I miss those Christmas morns.

  416. Kim says

    There is nothing quite like a good cup of coffee and a piece of chocolate as a wonderful way to start my day! (Don’t tell my kids!).

  417. Carolyn says

    My hubby always gave heart-shaped boxes of chocolate to our twin girls on Feb 14. Last week, he quietly mailed them to the girls at college. Sniff… where did the years go?

  419. Sherry in Sumner says

    Chocolate things I love: Chocolate candy, hot chocolate, chocolate people (per Eric Adams), chocolate labs…..well, you get the idea….

  420. Cindy Howard says

    I think chocolate is totally a dietary necessity. An essential nutrient. I know I get a little wonky when I’m deficient!
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  422. Sharon Sorrels says

    I grew up in a family where chocolate cured everything! A bad grade, boyfriend breakup, missing both proms–Mama’s chocolate frosted cream puffs could make those problems shrink to nearly a chocolate chip!

  429. Judith Anderson says

    Nothing says I love you like chocolate, even if it’s to yourself. I lost my husband in May. This will be my first Valentine’s Day without him. I am going to love myself this year and that’s OK.

  431. Joy B says

    It was fun to read all the creative comments on one of my favorite subjects~~CHOCOLATE!!
    Your giveaways are the best, Thanks Mavis!

  433. randi says

    a box of chocolates is like rug hooking, you have a plan on how to complete the task but then that plan goes out the window and there you are. An empty box and a beautifully creative rug.

  443. Peggy says

    My family, my husband especially, will sometimes walk up to me and say he knows I have chocolate hidden in the house somewhere, and where is it.

  446. Rosaleen says

    Chocolate is so wonderful that we should have a chocolate-themed holiday multiple times each year.

    • Lindie says

      Chocolate are loved by me and the entire country it brings sweetness and love and joy into our life and most of all it brings people together.❤

  449. Jules says

    If you say the word Chocolate 423 times (by reading thru the comments) it starts to sound funny. But in sure this chocolate tastes amazing

  453. Angela Carpenter says

    Chocolate is one of the food pyramid categories, right? If not it should be. Don’t like Chocolate? Don’t trust them.

  458. E flo says

    I adore chocolate AND Maine. Trying to get my kid to pick a college there so I have an excuse to go up and visit….maybe sharing local chocolates could sway him?

  460. Rachel says

    Chocolate enriches life…and is best shared with a special someone <3

    Thank you for this fun giveaway!

    My husband is suffering from terminal kidney cancer, but he loves chocolate in any form. This would make a great gift to lift his spirit, mine as well.

  472. Suzanne Simpkins says

    I love chocolate and I love Maine, it couldn’t get any better. The tough part will be sharing it with my family. 🙂 On a side note, I have almost finished my rug hook project, it is my first one–a fox–how do I share a picture??

  482. Valerie C. says

    A fond memory of mine – When I was in high school, a boy gave me a red carnation and a box of chocolate for Valentine’s day. I excitedly showed them to my dad when he got home from work (before my mom) and his face went pale…he. had. forgotten! He tried to buy them from me to give to my mother! LOL

    Thanks for a fun giveaway!

  487. Cheryl McDonald says

    These chocolates are almost too pretty to eat but I would not let that stop me! Thank you for the opportunity.

  489. Sue says

    I need chocolate! I love chocolate! Chocolate is life! Chocolate is what’s for dinner! Chocolate is my best friend!
    Did I mention that I like chocolate??

  490. Marlinda says

    Thanks for sharing your favorite chocolates with three lucky winners! Hopefully one of them is me!

  491. Patty L says

    These chocolates are a work of art! Since chocolate is my live language, I’m hoping to try them. Thank you Mavis! ❤️

  495. Mary Keen says

    If politicians, used the word “chocolate” at the beginning of each speech we would have world peace.

  497. Charlene Woods says

    I love chocolate. Especially pretty, fancy chocolates. I could eat chocolate for breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday! Thank you!

  500. Staci W says

    Well, we’re hoping to get to your neck of the woods this summer/fall. So, if I don’t win the chocolate, I guess I’ll have to add the shop to my list of must dos!
    Thanks for the chance!

  505. Jeri says

    I’m actually having a hysterectomy on Valentine’s Day! Yea, Happy Valentines Day to me, lol. I think having a lovely box full of chocolate would speed up the healing process

    Thank you for your fun giveaways, love your blog!

  518. Annette says

    Years ago when I was young, My friend would poke her fingernail in the bottom of a piece of boxed chocolate candy to figure out what it was filled with. Such a sneak!

  520. Monica B says

    Chocolate is yummy any day and any time. 🙂

    P.S. – Mavis, have you ever heard of chocolate gravy? My grandma and great grandma made it. I do not have a recipe, but wish I did. I have found some online but they are too fancy to be the real deal.

  523. Samantha Green says

    I’d love to win this chocolate assortment. It looks beautifully crafted and I’d share them with my teenage daughter.

  525. Gerri Gerling says

    Chocolate, chocolate, I love you bunches,
