Chocolate Mouth, the innovative artisan chocolatier based in Austin, is proud to announce the release of its highly anticipated I Love Me Box, a playful yet meaningful alternative to traditional Valentine’s Day gifts. This 12-piece artisan chocolate box is designed for individuals who want to celebrate self-love, embrace singlehood, and indulge in high-quality, handcrafted chocolate.
With a bold, rebellious spirit, Chocolate Mouth is challenging the conventional approach to Valentine’s Day by offering a product that invites people to treat themselves with kindness and care. While many chocolatiers focus on romantic gestures, Chocolate Mouth’s new offering celebrates the joy of being single and empowers individuals to prioritize self-compassion.
“We’re excited to give people the chance to celebrate themselves this Valentine’s Day,” says Gina Lujan, Founder of Chocolate Mouth. “The I Love Me Box is all about saying ‘I love me’ with humor and a bit of rebellion. It’s a perfect way to indulge in something sweet while also promoting self-care and self-acceptance.”
A Sweet Act of Rebellion: Redefining Valentine’s Day
The I Love Me Box is more than just a box of chocolate; it’s a statement. In a market flooded with traditional heart-shaped candies and flowers, Chocolate Mouth offers a fresh, bold take that reflects a growing cultural shift towards embracing one’s individuality and prioritizing personal well-being. The chocolates inside are crafted with playful designs and approachable flavors, ensuring that the experience is fun and not overly formal or intimidating.
Chocolate Mouth is known for its creative and light-hearted approach to chocolate-making, and this new product is no exception. The I Love Me Box has quickly become a cult favorite, offering a perfect antidote to the conventional Valentine’s Day gifts that dominate the market each year. It’s a box for anyone who wants to take a stand against the pressure of romantic expectations and instead celebrate their own worth.
Giving Back to the Community: Chocolate Mouth’s Commitment to Animal Rescue
In addition to promoting self-care, Chocolate Mouth’s I Love Me Box is also about giving back. A portion of the proceeds from every box sold goes directly to animal rescue efforts in Central Texas, supporting shelter and street dogs through trusted rescue partners. This commitment to animal welfare has been a cornerstone of the company’s mission from the start, making each purchase not only a treat for the customer but also a step toward helping animals in need.
“It’s important to us that our customers know they are making a difference with every purchase,” Lujan says. “Every box sold contributes to a cause we deeply care about, and that’s part of what makes Chocolate Mouth special. We’re a brand with heart—both literally and figuratively.”

A Brand Rooted in Creativity and Playfulness
Founded by Gina Lujan, Chocolate Mouth was born out of a creative project between Lujan and her child, who sought to move beyond the digital world and into something tactile, artistic, and generous. That energy of creativity and fun is still evident in every product the brand creates. With a focus on humor, accessibility, and creativity, Chocolate Mouth is redefining the chocolatier experience by making chocolate both fun and approachable.
