The research was long and intensive. However, in the end, the results showed that most of the candidates responded to:

Chocolate gifts
Chocolate are one of the oldest traditions of this occasion. However, as times have changed, the chocolate preference has also changed drastically. Nowadays, there is chocolate and then there ’the chocolate’.
There are different kinds of chocolate these days and the research showed that there were brands that were considered more romantic than others. Apart from the chocolate type, the other factor that came into play was the packing in which the chocolate came in. The package was seen to have its own silent words to those that held it. After all, appearances are everything.
In terms of the chocolate brand, the top preferred brand was the Recchiuti Confections Black Box.
The brand received the highest preference ratings from most of the candidates. The conclusion was based on both the appearance and the taste of the chocolate.
The brand comes with a sleek and very presentable box cover. On top of the amazing box cover, the chocolate comes with 16 chocolate pieces that are a mixture of the best chocolate varieties of the Recchiuti Confections. Some of the popular brands included in the box include;
It’s more like tasting all the best flavors in the world in one box. This is surely going to get emotions turning.
As stated before, emotions vary with different people. The chocolate choice does indeed change in case the person you intend to gift is not into grand gestures. In that case, the best brand for those that are not into big gestures, the best chocolate option is the Hachez Cocoa D’Arriba Chocolate Bar.
The amazing bar is quite cheaper, but the taste is worth the occasion. The taste of the chocolate is amazing and smooth. To top it all off, the chocolate is completely preservative free, so the taste will blow your taste buds off. Lastly, whatever the chocolate, it was realized that a good presentation made it just as good. Therefore, you can add on and get the chocolate wrapped in a red ribbon or something romantic.
Champagne glasses
Champagne glassesAn amazing valentine’s day is not perfect without a good toast of champagne. Now, you need to understand that the champagne is not just any kind.
For a special occasion such as you need to get the amazing kind of champagne. The one that costs you an arm and a leg.
Of course, the champagne is worth it, considering the effect it will have on the person you are sharing it with.
However, there is one more thing you need to put into consideration as well; the champagne glasses.
An amazing champagne choice can be easily turned into a normal without the proper glass to accompany it.
If accompanied with a low-level glass, the champagne will be degraded and the ultimate champagne experience won’t be as perfect as it should be. You need to treat your champagne with the respect it deserves. The perfect glass will bring out the elegance that the champagne comes with.
The research carried out, proved that the champagne glass choice levitated the champagne choice.
The best glass for the occasion was found out to be the Riedel Vinum Cuvee glasses. The choice came into being due to the features that the glass comes with. In case you are into champagne, you definitely now how a good glass should let the wine breathe and bubble perfectly.
Believe it or not, the perfect glass constricts the champagne into bubbling slowly and seductively. The Vinum glass is decorated with this feature. It is also preferred due to its sturdy nature and weight. It’s slightly heavier than other designs and it’s said to bring the champagne into perfect status. As per the research, this is definitely the glass to go for your valentines date.
Wine glasses
Wine glasses another tradition that comes into play during this time of year is the occasional wine.
Most people save up a lot for almost months to ensure they get the best wine choice that is available.
As most of the couples save up such amount of money, one of the things that they don’t really know is that the best thing to go for is actually the wine glass option. Just as the champagne glass has an effect, so does the choice of the wine glass too.
Wine is just wine if not accompanied with the right kind of glass. It’s more like a king with no throne to sit on. A good king is deserving of a glamorous throne and so does the wine. It would be wrong in a manner of Shakespearian proportions to bring down vintage wine with a low-grade glass. It’s wrong to the core.
During the research, we realized that most of the candidates responded more to the glass choice that came with the wine. The wine must be good, of course, but the glass choice needs to be perfect. Most of the candidates argued that the glass choice was more evoking of elegance than the wine option. After all, we are not all wine fanatics.
Therefore, the research changed sails and sought to find the perfect wine glass choice for the occasion. The final decision rested on the Riedel Ouverture magnum glass. The glass is a combination of both elegance and perfection.
It’s perfectly short for a stable, but very classy look. With such a glass in hand, any wine can become top notch. However, a combination of vintage wine and this type of glass is irresistible to anyone. Therefore, if you are well within your means, you can have both the fancy wine and the Riedel Ouverture magnum glass.
Wine preserver
Wine preserverGetting expensive wine to make your Valentine’s date special is quite a commendable thing to do.
However, in the event you find that you and your partner aren’t in a position of finishing the wine, then it would be a sad waste to let it get bad.
Therefore, you need to ensure that you get the wine preserved well for a later night. Finding the right preservative for the job is also important. In the research, the candidates opted to go for an option that was both effective and cost efficient. After all, the day only comes once in a year so you don’t need a preservative that could cost you much.
The candidates arrived at a conclusion that the best wine preservative would be the Private Preserve spray. The theory behind the spray is quite simple and commonly used. When the spray is released into the wine, it creates an argon blanket above the wine.
The blanket prevents air from getting into the wine and destroying it. In that simple way, you can have your wine ready and still good at a later point in time. The method is most preferred due to ease of use and it’s also quite cheap.
Vases
VasesThe setting of the date is one of the things that is very important to the date. You need to make the surrounding comfortable and very beautiful.
One of the ways to make the setting appropriate is through the use of flowers. You can place them either on the table or around the table. Either way, you will need a vase that will be perfect to match the flower idea.
In the research, the candidates shared the vase preferences and some of the things that make a vase totally wrong. One the thing to consider is that the color contrast is perfect.
The vase should bring out the brightness of the flower. Therefore, choose a vase that is exactly opposite of the flower color. Another thing to look out for is to ensure that your vase make is appropriate. The need to have flowers is to make the place look beautiful and if the messy stems are visible then attention is shifted to the imperfection.
Therefore, make sure the vase is opaque for better results and also ensure that it’s about the right height as well.
Candles
Am sure by now you are well versed with the importance of candles on a date night. The soft light has been preferred by many and has been said to make the mood of the dinner very romantic and special. However, there are several candle types from different manufacturers. Therefore, a research was necessary to find out the brands and types that most people preferred. Candles come in four types;
Tapers
In taper type, the research pointed to the New white rappers 10-inch candles. Despite coming from different makers from time to time, they proved to last long and dripless messy.
They can light up for about 7 hours, more than enough time for your special date. In pillar type candles, Yummy candles came in first place. They were most preferred due to the fact that they didn’t smoke like other and they also cooled faster.
They average a total of 60 hours of light; very impressive. In votive candles in leading place was the 15 hour white unscented votive candles. Lastly, the tea light candles that were most preferred by many were the Richland tealight candles.
These gave out at about 6 hours and emitted very little smoke. Whatever the candle you choose, you need to ensure that it can last longer than the date and also that it does not produce a lot of smoke and make the date uncomfortable.
Bedroom toys
For couples that have that have reached the sex level, then a good session of making love totally makes the climax of the evening. With all the preparation that is put into this day, this part of the night is meant to be very special.
The way the couples choose to go to this section of the evening is totally dependent on the way their relationship is set. Most seem to go for the simple one on one, but there has been a rise in spontaneous couples that get a little bit higher.
There has been a rise in the number of couples that go for added pleasures that come from the use of sex toys. During Valentine’s Day, most couples decide to get a little bit carried away and seek more pleasure in bed.
With a horde of toys to choose from in the market, there is an untold world of pleasure to be found. However, the couple should ensure they are ready to go to this level and also be aware that most of the toys have a no return policy.
