    MarieBelle New York Ganache Collection

    16-Piece, $50.00

    Flavors include, Passion Fruit, Milk Chocolate, Dark Chocolate, Espresso, Caramel Salt, Pistachio, Wild Berry, Toffee and Dulce Leche.

    New York Caramel Collection

    9-Piece, $28.00

    Take a bite out of the Big Apple with our newest collection of chocolate caramels! Packaged inside a whimsical inspired, New York-themed box, take in the aroma of dark chocolate while tasting the creamy smoothness of caramel through three, all natural flavors: Fluer de Sel, Italian Espresso and Chocolate Caramel.

    Featuring iconic images of distinct neighborhoods across New York and Brooklyn, they’re the perfect New York souvenir to transport you to the City That Never Sleeps in every bite.

    MarieBelle Chocolates choose only the finest selection of Criollo cacao beans from all over the world. What the fine Arabica bean is to coffee, the even finer and rarer Criollo bean is to chocolate. Criollo cacao makes up less than 10% of worldwide chocolate production, and as such, is highly sought after by connoisseurs. Chocolate made from Criollo beans has a distinct reddish color, and an equally distinctive complex taste, which can include flavors of caramel, nuts, vanilla and tobacco.

    Only the finest, seasonal and natural ingredients are selected to make our chocolates. MarieBelle Chocolates source local ingredients such as fresh berries and fruits, and travel the world to find the best exotic ingredients each culture has to offer. This includes European butter, English lavender, Tahitian vanilla, Florida lemons, Japanese matcha tea and Puerto Rican rum. These ingredients are slowly infused into MarieBelle chocolates as their freshness is essential to the complexity of their flavor.

    MarieBelle chocolates are all hand-made by passionate chocolate artisans. Their startling creativity and gift for harmonizing flavors have been the source of continuous innovation in MarieBelle chocolate-making process and techniques.

    The chocolate and natural ingredients are combined into ganache and tempered to remove air and ensure maximum freshness. The ganache is then settled overnight before being cut into bite-sized pieces. Each ganache is then coated in pure dark chocolate before each piece receives its signature cocoa-based design. MarieBelle designs are all paintings created by artisanal, culinary artists. Each design tells its own story.

    This Valentine’s season, choosing a sweet gift from MarieBelle chocolates, and sending the deepest love to the person in your heart!

    So you forgot tomorrow’s Valentine’s Day…here are some tips

    [ENCLOSED] –  the world’s only gift service, focused on helping gentlemen find romantic lingerie gifts for the women they love. Antonia Townsend, the founder of [ENCLOSED] has selected more than 57,479 gifts, almost all from men to women. This makes her a bit of an expert in one thing; Valentine’s Day gifts!

     5 mistakes the Valentine-Shopping Man Should Avoid in 2019:

    1.   It’s Not All About You:

    Just because you have a passion for green underwear that relates back to your 3rd grade science teacher does not mean you should buy her the forest green bra, stockings and panties. Listen to what she likes and what she feels comfortable with. Perhaps she hates her belly. Even if you honestly adore that tummy, choose items that minimize the focus on that area. Bodysuits, nighties and robes are wonderful Valentine’s Day gifts that don’t highlight the middle. Similarly, if you know she does like something about herself-perhaps she’s got those buff mom arms-then select accordingly. A bralette set is perfect for the woman with awesome guns.

    2.   But It Is About The Two Of You:

    It is Valentine’s Day after all, the day of love and romance. If you are a couple, think about what reflects the two of you. Perhaps your wedding colors were blue and white; buck the red and pink tradition and get her blue and white lingerie. Or you are dating and want to show her you are listening; select a lingerie set in her favorite color.

    3.   Size:

    This is the one that makes men SO NERVOUS. Like high-school dance with acne nervous. My number one piece of advice here is do not try to buy her a bra in a cup size. (e.g. those confusing algorithm-like 32B, 36DD number letter combos.) Even if you “know” her bra size, every brand is different and bras really do need to be tried on, therefore stick with the small-medium-large items that are much more forgiving. To avoid this use services such as [Enclosed] with basic information on the recipient, the experts at [ENCLOSED] hand-pick a personalized lingerie item for each recipient from the finest luxury designers worldwide.  The gift arrives in a signature purple box surrounded by dried rose pedals. No need to plan ahead with [ENCLOSED] as they offer overnight shipping. From size, style, quality to fit and beautiful packaging, you can be sure the gift you pick will fit your date.

    4.   Quality Over Quantity

    No, you don’t have to spend over $500 (although you can.) But whatever you do, don’t go cheap. The point of giving her lingerie is to give her a fine, feminine treat that she wouldn’t buy for herself. Better to give her one pair of ultra-high-quality panties than a low-quality 4-piece set. To be explicit, do not go to Victoria’s Secret for a gift. It’s an awesome brand for women for many reasons, but it’s not designed to help gents find really extraordinary gifts for the women they love.

    5.   Do Not Go It Alone; Enlist Experts:

    Picking out lingerie that makes a woman feel classy, sexy and sensual (not trashy) is hard! Enlist female experts who do this for a living and you will look like a hero. When she receives her luxe Valentine’s Day gift in an elegant purple box surrounded by dried rose pedals, you will be “the man” whose stock and allure just went through the roof. The [ENCLOSED] motto is tried and true in 20 countries: We do the work, he gets the credit.

    About Antonia Townsend:

    Antonia Townsend is the Founder and “Chief Knicker Officer” of [ENCLOSED] — the first lingerie gift-giving service specifically designed to empower men to create high-end, romantic gift experiences for the women they love.

    Since launching in 2013, the San Francisco-based e-commerce lingerie subscription company has generated multimillion-dollars in revenue while servicing 30,000 customers in 20 countries. Prior to launching [ENCLOSED], Townsend spent nearly 25 years working as a CEO, CMO and c-suite executive for companies including Clear and Edit.com.

    She earned her BA from Wesleyan University and her MBA from Columbia University. She resides in San Francisco with her husband and baby. Headshot available upon request.
