Ditch the Chocolate! Valentines Goodies That Won’t Ruin Your Teeth

Valentine's Day is fast approaching, and it is time to come up with ways to show loved ones how much you care. When Valentine's Day comes to mind, many think of heart shaped boxes with an assortment of chocolates, each one unique and delicious, and each one packed with sugar. Sugar, although delicious, can cause significant damage to your teeth. Here at White Glo, we want to make sure you have a Valentine's Day filled with love, without putting your smile at risk. We have compiled a few ways to show your loved ones you care about them AND their teeth.

Fruit Bouquet

Fruit bouquets are a tasty and healthy alternative to chocolate, and are a great way of showing appreciation towards your significant other. You can pick from an assortment of fruits, from strawberries to pineapple, and some assortments shape the fruit into hearts.

Even better?

Most places allow you to choose to opt for some chocolate dipped fruits, a perfect balance of sweet without the risk of increased cavities!

Assorted Nuts

These days they have companies that will make beautiful mixed nut assortments for your loved ones. This may sound unusual, however, there are many companies that specialise in said assortments, and make the nuts so flavourful you’ll forget all about the chocolates! Instead of a box of chocolate, try getting a box of macadamia or brazil nuts, both on the softer side, and both make a tasty and visually appealing gift!

Flower Boquet

Sticking to the basics never hurt anyone, and getting your loved one a bouquet of flowers is sure to brighten their day. Instead of getting flowers AND chocolate, as many usually do, put the chocolate funds towards the flowers, and get your significant other the bouquet of their dreams. Paired with a heartfelt card, this gift is sure to help you win this Valentine’s Day. 

These are just a few chocolate swap ideas to utilise this Valentines Day, but with the right amount of creativity, the ideas are endless. At White Glo, we want you to feel your most confident self everyday, especially on the day of love!
