Chocolates have been a classic Valentine’s gift for years, and Australians love their sweet treats just as much as anyone else.

Plus, without a sturdy container, chocolate bars can easily break—especially if you’re planning a picnic under the Aussie sun. Time for a fresh take!

This wooden chocolate bar box is the perfect solution, featuring a pull-out inner box that adds both style and protection. The hollow heart design is cleverly placed by the original designer to align with the letter "U" on the chocolate package, completing the phrase "are in my heart" on the box cover. To make it your own, you can customise the heart’s location or adjust the words on the cover—perfect for creating a unique Valentine’s Day gift that reflects Australia’s creative and personal touch.
