The Sweetest Romances Bloom with Gifts from FTD

It’s that time of year when romance is in the air and sweethearts everywhere are inspired to find new and original ways to tell each other, “I love you!” At FTD, we’ve been making Valentine dreams come true for more than 100 years, and for 2014, we offer an exciting array of luxurious gifts that go beyond the expected, and into the exceptional, at a range of prices.

Flowers, and especially roses, are an iconic choice. While red is a familiar favorite, consider surprising your sweetie with roses in the year’s trendiest hues – like lavender, or in a fun and vibrant mix of several bright and beautiful colors.

This year, we’re finding, more and more people are accompanying their bouquets with a sweet treat to create a loving, multi-sensory Valentine experience. Among the top choices are FTD’s new and exclusive collection of Chocolate Dip Deligh ts. Artisan chocolatiers start with big, ripe, juicy natural fruits and berries, along with scrumptious cakes and cookies, and make them even more delectable with generous hand-dipping in luxurious 100% real, premium chocolate. They’re the perfect gourmet goodie for all your sweeties, whether they’re women, men or children.

What better way to kick off a night of romance than with Chocolate Dip Delights™ Valentine Real Chocolate Covered Strawberries? Each plump, vine-ripened strawberry, specially selected for its size, sweetness and juiciness, is hand-dipped in velvety 100% real chocolate – dark, milk or white – and striped with ruby red drizzles. Yum!

Or, choose from one of these great ways to say “Be Mine!”

Belgian Chocolate Covered Oreo® Cookies… the world’s favorite cookie made more wonderful with a delightful dunk in our premium, 100% real chocolate.
Happy Valentine Cake Pops are one of the trendiest treats and an inspired way to send “hugs and kisses” to all the loves in your life.
Valentine’s Day Cupcakes hand-dipped in Chocolate Dip Delights signature 100% real Belgian chocolate−dark, milk or white−and decorated for Valentine’s Day.
S’more Hugs & Kisses reinvents the classic campfire treat with a fun and festive look just right for Valentine’s Day gifting.
And Red Hot Love Valentine’s Day Chocolate Covered Jalapenos to help you bring a delicious, exciting and spicy touch to a special relationship.

Here’s an idea! Make the love you share this Valentine’s Day, last though the year. Choose from our Chocolate Dip Delights Belgian Chocolate Covered Dessert or Fruit Club and keep the sweetness flowing for your choice of 3 months, 6 months or a full year!

Don’t forget to check out the bouquets for which FTD is world famous. You’ll find roses with stems up to 5-feet long, long-stem roses in fun, fresh and colorful mixed bouquets, and arrangements ready to display in exclusive, sparkling, heavy-glass keepsake vases they’ll cherish for years. And one of the great things about ordering roses from FTD is your assurance that no matter which bouquet you choose, the blossoms will be hand-chosen and meet our strict standards for excellent bloom formation, color and freshness.

Finally, one bit of advice we always share−order early to get the best selection and price. Order your Valentine’s Day gifts now and schedule delivery for Valentine’s Day, or better yet, have your gift delivered early that week (Valentine’s Day is on Friday), so your sweetheart can be the envy of the office from Monday through Friday.
