SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - February 4, 2010) - Chocolate gifts for Valentine's Day are a traditional sign of love and affection, and this year Bittersweet Café, the Bay Area's bean-to-bar Bittersweet Origins chocolate maker and chocolate cafés, has a full array of its own chocolate collections and special gift packaging ready for your special Valentine sweetheart.
Bittersweet's three Bay Area locations are a Valentine gift central with delicious, high quality chocolate gifts ranging from $4.95 to $34.95.
Valentine tins, Share the Love tins and Big Love Pails are popular Bittersweet signature gifts. The Mint Tin includes Dark Chocolate Mints and Peppermint Shortbreads while the Fruit and Nut Tin features Dark Chocolate Dried Strawberries, Dark Chocolate Cherries and Dark Chocolate Pistachios.
