Valentines card for my hubby x

I have made a Valentines card for my hubby ....... I know he does not want a card or a gift .... but he is getting it !!
I will be making a box to go with it, embossed with hearts, & He just loves Dark Chocolate (card is perfect), In the box under the card I  will put a bar of Dark Chocolate with lush wrapping ..... I wonder if he will share it Lol x
