Why Give CBD Chocolate for Valentine’s Day?

Nothing means more to gift receivers than a present that comes from the heart. Spend some time this holiday season making some delicious CBD chocolate treats for your sweetie. Here’s why CBD chocolate is the ultimate Valentine’s Day gift.

Benefits of Chocolate for Valentine’s Day

Americans gift 58 million pounds of chocolate each Valentine’s Day. That’s billions of dollars spent on candy in just one month. In a holiday known for conversation hearts and other sugary treats, chocolate is one of the better options for your health-conscious valentine.

Cacao beans are an excellent source of antioxidants. These potent compounds help fight off oxidative stress that can compromise your valentine’s glowing skin, mood and health.

In particular, dark chocolate is a nutrient-dense treat. It contains polyphenols, catechins and flavonols that support optimal health. As a matter of fact, dark chocolate that ranges from 72% to 85% dark cacao has more antioxidants than acai or blueberries!

Benefits of CBD for Valentine’s Day

The average person spent $143.56 on Valentine’s Day last year. Finances can put a strain on relationships, and Valentine’s Day is no exception. A gift from the heart, like a batch of homemade CBD chocolate, is more thoughtful than buying an expensive item. It takes more effort and time to make CBD chocolate than to buy another set of earrings — you’ll score points for putting in time and effort. These sorts of gestures don’t go unnoticed.

Giving CBD chocolate this holiday can actually support your partner in managing stress. It’s one of the main reasons people love CBD. Perhaps the best part about CBD chocolates is that they’re something you can share together. Isn’t that what Valentine’s Day is all about? Let’s take a look at some CBD chocolate recipes!
