In the U.S. alone, 58 million pounds of chocolate are purchased during the week of Valentine's Day. Neilsen research calculates this equating to $345 million dollars in sales. This makes up more than 5% of all chocolate candy sales for the entire year. In just one week!
The Europeans have us beat – by far! They account for nearly half of all the chocolate consumed in the world. The average European eats – are you ready – about 24 POUNDS a year!
I love chocolate and I love any excuse to give it.
Valentine's Day is just a few weeks away and many moms are busy deciding on which Valentine's candy favors their school age children will hand out to classmates.
Today's project is one that the kids can make with you. It's fun, impressive and easy to create. Considering filling these bags with home baked cookies or small toys.
