In addition to roses, cards, and jewelry, one of the most popular Valentine's Day gifts out there is — without a doubt — chocolate.

We totally have you covered.

New Paltz, New York-based chocolatier, Lagusta's Luscious, is 100 percent vegan and 100 percent delicious — although orders may be backed up until Valentine's Day, peruse its website or Confectionery in NYC to find bars, truffles, and assortments galore.

They come in nine plant-based flavors, including: Pure Dark, Double Dark, Dark Orange, Mint, Espresso, Sea Salt, Peanut Butter, Almond, and Chili.

If your loved one prefers the simple things in life, opt for Theo's 70 Percent Cacao Dark Chocolate Bar — the Seattle, Wash.-based chocolate company makes organic chocolate, including a vegan bar that's just as indulgent as any truffle. A pack of 12 bars goes for $34.12, and since the bars are honestly massive, it would truly be the gift that keeps on giving. Bulk buying at its finest.
