It's Conversation Hearts! The official candy of love! Did you know that Necco
began producing these sentiment-stamped confections around the time of the
Civil War? Me neither! Though most if not all of the sayings have been changed,
conversation hearts remain to be one of the most traditional of Valentine's Day treats.
Check out these creative candy heart creations!
