Valentine’s Day Candy Mix

It’s the sweetest time of year! I’m a sucker for festive Valentine’s Day candy. No, I’m not one of those people who can wait to buy it until it goes on sale after Valentine’s Day, but those people have impressive willpower. I’m the type of person who buys Valentine’s Day candy a month before Valentine’s Day, even before February, oops. This Valentine’s Day candy mix is truly foolproof and dangerously addicting! This treat is perfect to make with kids, for a Valentine’s Day party, to add to a dessert board, or to gift to loved ones.

Notes:

Fondue - This recipe can make for the perfect base for any chocolate fondue. If you want to spice up your fondue, feel free to add flavors like peanut butter, amaretto, coconut milk, peppermint extra, etc.

Accompaniments - Include any dippers you like to pair with chocolate. We tried to keep with a pink, red, and white theme for Valentine’s Day.
