A warehouse club is probably not the first place that comes to mind when shopping for romantic treats. If you are a Costco member, however, you should know that America’s third-largest retailer is primed to capitalize on any given holiday. Valentine’s Day is no exception.
In addition to jewelry and Forever Roses, your local warehouse offers a number of snack and meal ideas to incorporate into your holiday plans, too. Candy and chocolates are plentiful, yes, but there are also some unique Valentine-themed food items to shop for as well.
Whether you’re going all out for a loved one this year, or you want to celebrate Galentine’s Day with your B.F.F.s, or you simply want to show yourself some self-love this February, Costco is once again your one-stop destination for all of your Valentine’s Day needs.
1. Mrs. Fields Happy Valentine’s Day Crate
If your special someone is all about the sweets, then they will fall head over heels for the Mrs. Fields Happy Valentine’s Day Crate at Costco. It comes with 24 bite-sized cookies, 24 brownie bites, and two frosted heart-shaped cookies, perfect for sharing (or enjoying all by yourself, we won’t judge). It all comes packaged in a festive heart-decorated box, priced at $39.99 online.
2. Valentine’s Day Belgian 6 Chocolate Covered Strawberries and 6 Mini Cheesecake Pops
The only thing that could make a fresh strawberry better is to dip it in chocolate. Fortunately, Costco is selling a package of Belgian 6 Chocolate Covered Strawberries and 6 Mini Cheesecake Pops, priced at $49.99 online through Feb. 8. Both the strawberries and the cheesecake pops come with white, milk, and dark chocolate varieties.
3. Costco Dee Amore Potato Skins
Potato skins are a popular snack food or appetizer that are made of hollow potato halves topped with bacon, cheddar cheese and green onion. Costco is carrying these Dee Amore Potato Skins that are “loaded with cheddar” and use Idaho potatoes.
The one kilogram box comes with 21 to 23 potato skins and costs $18.99 Canadian. The skins aren’t super small
4. Allie & Sara’s Kitchen Portuguese Custard Tarts
Portuguese tarts are a combination of a flaky pastry shell with a sweet egg custard in the middle. These Allie & Sara’s Kitchen Portuguese Custard Tarts from Costco caught my eye because they look delicious on the box and they’re actually made in Portugal!
The 720-gram box contains 12 tarts and costs $13.99 Canadian at Costco. The cost per tart is similar to what I pay at my local bakery that sells Portuguese tarts.
5. Italian Four Cheese Heart-shaped Ravioli
Valentine’s Day treats do not have to be sweet to get the point across. There are some savory options at Costco, too. An easy Valentine’s Day dinner at home idea could be the Italian Four Cheese Heart-shaped Ravioli shared by @costcobuys on Instagram. Filled with ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, and aged asiago, these red and white ravioli come in packs of two and cost $9.99.
7. Red Velvet Mini Cakes
Last month, @costcodeals and @costcodealsonline on Instagram spotted the return of Costco’s Red Velvet Mini Cakes. The six pack of cakes costs $9.99 and comes with a cream cheese icing. You definitely won’t need to come up with dessert ideas for the week after you pick up a pack.
