Fifty-eight million pounds worth of chocolate is bought in the United States in the lead-up to Valentine’s Day. Here is how the box of chocolates became the go-to Valentine’s delight. Tokens of appreciation for Valentine’s Day began sometime during the 19th century.

Ahead of Valentine’s Day, Vogue photographed our favorite (and most unusual) chocolates on the market that would make Cadbury proud. Order one—or, hell, order all. To borrow a line from another famous moment in the confectionary canon: “Life is like a box of chocolates: You never know what you’re going to get.”

Valentine's Day is, without a doubt, the sweetest holiday of the year, and there are plenty of sugar-filled treats to show for it. While some people take the homemade route, most of us pick up a box of Valentine's Day chocolates for our sweetie and call it a day. And can you blame us? There are so many options to swoon over.
