FLOWERS. What sells more during Valentine's Day – flowers or chocolate? According to a florist, "more and more people in love are now giving chocolate in beautiful boxes accompanied with flowers." Before only the "matured gentlemen" gave their lady love chocolate.

CHOCOLATE. The florist said the giving of chocolate used to be "American style." Now it has become "Pinoy style" too. "Thanks to the bakeshops and confectioners who spend big money for advertising," he said.
