GODIVA Valentine’s Day chocolates celebrate every expression of love with iconic gifts, playful romance, and irresistible flavor.
A season of love that tastes like something more
Valentine’s Day can feel predictable.
Flowers wilt. Cards repeat themselves. Yet every year, people still want to say something real. This season, GODIVA Valentine’s Day chocolates offer a richer language for love. The legendary Belgian house, founded in 1926, launches with a clear idea: love is layered, playful, imperfect, and deeply human.
“Say it With GODIVA,” invites people to move beyond scripted romance. Each chocolate becomes a small act of connection, a wink across the table, a shared laugh after dinner. Whether you are celebrating a longtime partner, a new spark, or yourself, the message lands with warmth and just enough indulgence to feel earned.
Love, after all, should be fun-loving, flavorful, and never boring.
Saying it with chocolate feels surprisingly personal
Actress and singer Leighton Meester returns as Lady Godiva, now portrayed through a softer, more intimate lens. She embodies closeness rather than spectacle. The effect feels relatable in a way luxury brands rarely achieve without trying too hard.
Her presence appears across social and digital platforms, crowned by a bold Times Square moment that stops passersby mid-scroll, mid-thought, mid-walk. It is elegant but playful, romantic without being stiff. Think Parisian confidence with New York humor. Yes, it knows it is chocolate. And yes, it enjoys that fact.
“I’m so excited to be partnering with GODIVA again, and this time for my favorite season, Valentine’s Day,”
Leighton Meester
“There’s something magical about celebrating love in all its forms, and working with GODIVA lets me bring that playful, indulgent spirit to life. From creating moments to share with someone special, to celebrating self-love, this campaign captures everything I adore about this time of year.”
A modern romance rooted in old-world craft
At its core, GODIVA Valentine’s Day chocolates balance heritage and modern taste. The brand’s Global President, Steve Lesnard, underscores that balance clearly.
“At GODIVA, we believe love should be celebrated in all its forms — and with joy,” he said. “This year’s campaign captures a playful, modern expression of romance while reminding the world that a moment of indulgence can itself be an act of love. From the very beginning, our founder Pierre Draps and his wife, Eugénie, envisioned GODIVA as more than chocolate — they set out to express an authentic, passionate love in every piece. Today, that legacy lives on through connection, creativity, and a touch of magic in every bite.”
That history matters.
Chocolate has always carried emotional weight, from European salons to today’s kitchen tables. The Smithsonian’s exploration of chocolate’s cultural roots explains why it remains such a powerful symbol of pleasure and celebration: https://www.si.edu/spotlight/food-history/chocolate
GODIVA Valentine’s Day chocolates: The gifts that do the talking
The 2026 Valentine’s Day Collection leans into classic shapes with elevated execution. Each piece delivers flavor-forward joy with a sense of occasion. This is where the fun-loving side truly shows up.
The Valentine’s Day Heart-Shaped Gift Box comes in 9-piece and 14-piece assortments designed for sharing. The Assorted Masterpiece Heart Tin offers individually wrapped chocolates that feel almost ceremonial when opened. There is also the Goldmark Dark Chocolate Heart-Shaped Tin for those who prefer bold cocoa notes over sweetness, plus the Goldmark Assorted Chocolate Heart-Shaped Tin with flavors like Milk Chocolate Hazelnut and Dark Chocolate Coconut.
These are not shy flavors. They are confident, layered, and playful. They invite a smile, maybe even a laugh, when the lid comes off. And yes, they taste as good as they look, which still matters no matter how upscale your dinner party might be.
Where luxury meets everyday access
One of the smartest moves in this campaign is accessibility. GODIVA products are available not only at GODIVA.com, but also through retailers like Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s, Amazon, and everyday grocery aisles. That range makes luxury feel approachable without diluting its charm.
For collectors, chefs, and cocktail enthusiasts, these chocolates fit easily into curated moments. A box on a marble counter. A few pieces paired with aged port. A late-night bite after service. Relatable luxury works because it understands real life, not just fantasy.
