You cannot fail by gifting chocolates on Valentine’s Day—unless your significant other has a chocolate allergy, in which case, we send our condolences. These vegan-friendly chocolatiers have stepped up their game for the special occasion, offering silky smooth and velvety confections in unparalleled flavors from Hazelnut Praline Cream to White Wine Pear and more. Valentine’s Day is fast-approaching, so order a vegan box from one of these 14 chocolate shops today.

Are chocolate truffles vegan?

We call them boxes of chocolate, but the heart-shaped gifts we give each other on Valentine’s Day and other romantic occasions are typically filled with chocolate truffles. Truffles are chocolate candies crafted with a soft filling contained by a hard chocolate shell.

While the shell may be made with dark chocolate, the fillings often contain dairy. Things like caramel, dairy-based ganache, or creams are some of the most common truffle fillings. It’s not difficult to come across accidentally vegan chocolate bars, but accidentally vegan truffles are a rarity.

Fortunately, there are plenty of intentionally vegan truffles on the market. Below you’ll find plenty stuffed with divine confections like salted caramel, rich peanut butter, and fruity ganaches.

Both are a welcome departure from the sickly-sweet nature of the holiday.
