Chocolates to sigh for.(UP FRONT)(Buyers guide)
For anyone who wants to splurge on Valentine's Day, our expert tasters suggest nine excellent boxed chocolates. We also found three very good choices that cost far less.
By "splurge," we mean that those nine fancy candies cost from $44 for a 36-piece box, to $102, for a 72-piece box. (Because most of them are mail-order, you might also incur shipping charges. We paid $20 to $36 for standard overnight or one day.)
By "excellent," we mean that they're almost too pretty to eat, with ultrasmooth chocolate and fresh, unusual fillings. Those and the less expensive assortments we've listed are all better choices than Russell Stover and Whitman's assortments, which cost even less but taste only OK.
Bottom line. The descriptions can narrow your choice. If you choose pricey chocolates, nibble quickly or share: Their shelf life ranges from about one to three weeks.
