Surprise your sweetheart with Lady M’s framboise au chocolat, an edible heart layered with velvety chocolate mousse, chocolate sponge and a fruity raspberry compote.

Encased in a pink heart-shaped box are three bon bon flavours, including almonds dipped in an ispahan-inspired raspberry-infused white chocolate; chewy raspberry jellies; and crispy cereal balls coated in a salted caramel-infused milk chocolate shell. Available from February 10 to 14.
