Money Magazine put together a panel of women ages 20 to 70 to sample 5 popular Valentine's Day chocolates. Taste and presentation were considered, along with value.
Vosges Haut-Chocolat: Exotic Truffle Collection, $73
Vosges Haut-Chocolat: Exotic Truffle Collection, $73
Grade: B
What it includes: A one-pound, 32 piece collection of "truffles infused with exotic spices," from paprika to Mexican vanilla
Price per piece: $2.28
Signature piece: The black pearl, an Asian-inspired chocolate flavored with ginger and wasabi
Taste: Chocolate on the cutting edge. It helps to have an adventuresome palate.
Presentation: The purple box tied with purple satin ribbon speaks to the chocolate's high-end appeal.
The bottom line: Great chocolate. It's made with organic ingredients "whenever possible" and has great packaging. But this box has less universal appeal.
