Since V-day is right around the corner, I thought it only appropriate to ask you guys, what’s the most romantic gesture anyone has ever done for you… or you for anyone else?
Obviously the most grand romantic gesture Boy has ever done for me was proposing. We had the entire outdoor courtyard at our favorite sushi restaurant all to ourselves and there were candles and flowers on the table. I thought we were just celebrating our anniversary until a beautiful, big ole’ platter of sushi came out and the words, “Will You Marry Me?” were written in eel sauce. Boy declared his love with the sweetest words anyone has ever said to me, got down on one knee and proposed.
I said yes… duh. 😉
But, as thoughtful, sincere and loving as that moment was, it is honestly the small things he does on a daily basis that warms my heart. Like, how he will ask me every day if I need him to go to the grocery store after work to pick up something blog related. If I say yes, for example, I need a lemon, he will not only go to the store, but he will meticulously pick through the lemons for the best looking one to bring home… because he knows it matters to me.

So what does it for you? What makes your heart go pitter-patter?
Anyways, enough mushy talk. Let’s discuss ridiculously easy sweet treats.
Goji Berry and White Chocolate Bark
When I say ridiculously easy, I mean it. This bark is lazy girl (or boy), stupid easy. It only requires 3 ingredients and about 5 minutes of your time, making it the perfect last minute, small Valentines gift for your honey.
This bark is sweet, creamy, smooth and white chocolatey with pops of slightly tart goji berries. Plus this bark is pretty – hello festively fun red and white… and sprinkles.
If you have never had goji berries before, they taste a bit like a cranberry. They are packed with antioxidants and they have cancer-fighting qualities. Basically they rock. You need to add them to your grocery list and start putting them in all the things… starting with this bark. 🙂Incredibly easy, only 3 ingredients and a breeze to whip together, there is no reason to not to make this bark for your loved one! Besides, when do you get to eat chocolate and fight cancer at the same time? Until next time friends, Cheers – to a beautiful Valentine’s Day!

OK, after 3 minutes of scrolling to comments here (see how many people love you and Boy’s romantic ways!) I must say this is YUM. Loves me all here. White chocolate pieces – check. Gogi berries in pantry – check. No sprinkles in this house, but I’m sure I’ll be fine! Thanks! Pinned and shared.
I love the proposal story – so perfect for you!! I can just picture it!! Such a wonderful memory for Valentine’s Day. Can you BELIEVE I’ve never had a Goji berry? I think that needs to end NOW with this delectable bark, and since the dog ate all my Valentine candy (true! sniffle!) I think I get to make this for my own self. Right? Cheers, my friend!
I love the story how your hubby proposed to you, but the story about how he makes sure he picks the right lemon because it matters to you is even better. He is definitely a keeper!!
ps. I love this bark!!
Cheyanne, that is the most adorable proposal I’ve ever heard of! Happy Valentine’s Day to you and Boy! I just love love, so reading this seriously warms my heat 😀 This recipe also makes me realise that I haven’t eaten goji berries in ages, and I miss their flavour! And it’s so beautifully styled and photographed, as usual 🙂
So sweet!! How romantic!! Also, this looks perfect! Such a great recipe!! So fun and festive!! 🙂 Delicious!
Happy Valentine’s Day, Cheyanne! Hope you and Boy are having a great one! This bark looks so perfect! I love the idea of the tart berries with the rich white chocolate, plus, it’s so pretty!
This looks so delicious and a perfect sweet treat for the holiday! Your proposal story is so adorably romantic! Happy Valentine’s Day!
This looks so delicious and a perfect sweet treat for the holiday! Happy Valentine’s Day!
I love your proposal story! I can’t believe he proposed using eel sauce! He is definitely original! I’m happy you said yes too girl! And I love this white chocolate bark! I’ve always wondered what you do to still get your ‘chocolate fix’ cause you are allergic! This is perfect and I can see how you can definitely survive without normal chocolate!
This chocolate bark looks delicious, Cheyanne! Love how easy and quick it is to make! Fantastic treat for Valentine’s Day! 🙂
This is the cutest thing ever! I love a good love story AND Im totally ‘squeeing!’ over those sprinkles (and goji’s!) in the white chocolate bark! This has just been pencilled in on my agenda to make this week!
I love this! The Goji Berries make it “good for you” so no guilt right 🙂 ? Barks are one of the best and simple treats to make. You’re right, he is a keeper! Mine is always attuned to if I am stressed and will ask what he can do to help and sometimes it requires going to the store to :-). Take care!
Three ingredients and 5 minutes? That’s a winner right there! I loved hearing about your proposal….sweet memories about such a special day! Hope you Valentine’s Day is filled with even more sweet things!
Mmmmm, I love chocolate and goji berries together – they are such a magical combination! This chocolate bark is gorgeous Cheyanne, and perfect for valentines day. I definitely need to make some! <3
Wow wow wow! So much wow to these stunning, classic and Valentine-ish barks. I can have them all day! And your boy is so romantic, such a cute proposal! Happy Valentine’s weekend girl! 🙂 <3
Ben isn’t one for the grand gestures, but honestly it’s the daily stuff that gets me. Just small thoughtful things 🙂 Love the looks of this bark! So festive with the red & white!
Your man is so romantic! What a sweet proposal! The white chocolate bark looks amazing! I wouldn’t be able to stop eating it until it was all gone!
Yes, he definitely sounds like a keeper! I’ve never tried goji berries, but after looking at this gorgeous white chocolate bark, I think I need to give them a try! I hope you and Boy have a wonderful Valentine’s Day <3
You definitely have a keeper, your husband sounds sweet and very romantic. I’ve never had goji berries but I keep hearing how healthy they are. With your easy recipe, there is no excuse not to try them.
What an awesome way to propose and this is such a pretty bark for Valentine’s Day! I’ve never even made anything with goji berries before!
Sweet guy you have there! I’m with you on the day-to-day things that matter most. My husband admitted that he gets up every day and one of his first thoughts is what can he do for me that day. If only I was that good. And, I’m a huge fan of white chocolate, so I’m completely on board with this bark. Beautiful. Happy Valentine’s day…
Awhhhh, Chey… I loved reading about you and Boy.. so sweet. Sharing life with your best friend is the best thing. Really. And it all started with his sweet proposal! He knew what would get your attention! FOOD! I’m incredibly grateful for Rob and the life we share together. I can’t imagine how my life would be without him. Rob supports me, no matter what. He goes to great lengths to make sure I have everything I need to do the work I do. The grocery store thing too… he’ll spend so much time, searching then asking store workers where this one tiny ingredient is…. that I NEED. He’ll do this on his way home from work. He even does laundry and cleans the bathroom! 😀 So I know what you mean. It’s the little things. But it feels big to those who receive. After 25 years, I am incredibly grateful. This bark is so festive Chey! From the flavors to the colors.. good stuff here! I just picked up goji berries too! Score! I love how easy this is to whip up too…. thank you for this my dear! Have a beautiful weekend! I hope you eat sushi! xo
That’s the sweetest proposal. I would go nuts for any proposal involving sushi! Your guy got it right.
And this is some fantastic Chey bark. Chocolate allergy? No problem! It’s gorgeous!
Awww- Boy’s proposal was so well thought of! And he did it with food – I mean “Will You Marry Me?” were written in eel sauce is pretty dang brilliant don’t ya think! Speaking of brilliant – so is this – it might only be 3 ingredients – but I adore your combination of them! A lovely balance of sweet and tart! Delicious!
Hope you and Boy have a lovely weekend! xoxo
What a great way to propose, love it! And glad he shows his love every day <3 This bark looks perfect! I have some goji berries and will definitely try it!
Actually, as for you, it’s the small things that my husband does that really send me. Cleaning up when I am tired, or going to the market if i am wrung out – maybe making sure that all of the cats are taken care of. Indeed, the little things matter. Also I will add that your Goji Berry Baark does make my heart go pitter patter. Itl ooks great, and your photos are lovely.
Proposal stories are my absolute favorite That is the first story I have heard incorporating sushi.. so amazing! I got butterflies just reading about it <3 I think this is my favorite Valentine's Day dessert I've seen this year. Goji berries are my favorite and I have never thought to incorporate them into a dessert- beyond genius and looks so beautiful!
Your marriage proposal sounded very romantic….truly. It really is the day to day things that matter the most, though. This white chocolate bark looks delicious with those beautiful goji berries — this sounds like a great combination! Perfect colors for Valentine’s Day whether you celebrate it or not. 🙂
That was one romantic, well planned proposal! Boy set the bar pretty high! My hubby tries to do little things I would appreciate like making a side trip on the way home from work to get turnip greens from Cracker Barrel to surprise me because he knows it’s my favorite thing from them. First of all, I’m glad that you are able to eat white chocolate! I love that this candy could’t get much easier to make and it’s so pretty! Plus the goji berries are an awesome idea…I can get me little sweet pick me up and stay fit as a fiddle! 🙂
Aww, it sounds like you have the sweetest husband Cheyanne! I loved reading that story and I love the way he proposed too! I bet it was so exciting 🙂 I definitely appreciate the little things too like visits to the grocery store and cleaning, especially 🙂 Love this bark — goji berries are an awesome combo with white chocolate!
What a sweet proposal story! One of my favorite romantic things that Kyle does is when he opens the car door for me. It’s such a simple gesture, but always makes me melt. Another that really sticks out to me was when we were in college and my childhood dog passed away – I was a MESS. I came home from class and there was a big bouquet of lilies waiting for me with a card. That totally warmed my heart. Ok enough mush and onto this beautiful bark! I want some right now!! It’s so pretty and festive 🙂
This bark looks so gorgeous! Perfect Valentine treat
Love this bark and love that he picks through all the lemons to bring home the best one 🙂 He’s a keeper!
Thank you so much, Jennifer! Cheers, friend!
Awww that’s such a cute way to propose and so so romantic!! He’s a keeper girl!!
And I love the shot where white chocolate is falling over goji berries!! Yummy!
Thank you so much, Ami!! Cheers, dear!
What a beautiful, healthy Vday treat!! I love that you paired sweet white chocolate with the tart goji berries! Awesome choice, deary!!
Thank you Beeta! Cheers, sweets!
Where’s the dark chocolate??? lol! Seriously, this looks pretty damn delicious and it’s healthy with the goji berries so I can eat it every day! Boy was too cute with the eel sauce proposal. I would have said yes to that in a heartbeat. My J did the romantic thing and took me to the Don CeSar in Tampa for the weekend. He proposed on Valentine’s Day so each year this day is a little more special than normal. Reminds me of the good times. hahahaha!!
Wow Cheyanne, you sure got a keeper. Me too. My Jon has picked through more piles of citrus fruit to bring me the perfect one….it is indeed the little things. And I’m so appreciative too. I think the most romantic thing Jon ever did BESIDES proposing, was commissioning a water color of the place where he proposed to me: the beautiful brick clock tower at Furman University on the lake. I wish I could send you a picture. (Of the painting.) He gave it to me the Christmas after Hudson was born, with a beautiful poem he wrote catalogging our last 20 years of married ups and downs. Yup. 20. I think I cried all Christmas morning. Happy tears of course. Speaking of happy, this bark is amazing and beautiful too. I’ve never tasted Goji berries before, so that’s gotta change. Thanks for this easy, pretty recipe, just in time for Valentine’s Day. Have a wonderful romantic weekend with Boy!!! XOXO
Your hubby sounds wonderful, Allie… but of course he better be, because he has one heck of wife! 🙂 You should post about that water color so I can see it! Love that you guys have been married 20 years, that’s something worth celebrating! I hope you two have a wonderful Valentine’s Day my dear! Cheers! XOXO
Oh these are so pretty! I want to eat the entire stack!!
Thank you so much, Manali! Cheers, girlfriend!
Awww… who knew eel sauce could be that romantic? 🙂 Love the story of your proposal and this recipe! Goji berries are such an unexpected treat in this bark. I’ll have to try this sometime! 🙂
Lol, I must say I never looked at eel sauce as romantic before that moment! 😉 Thanks so much for the kind comment, Demeter! Cheers to a beautiful weekend!
What a lovely proposal – so clever and sweet, Cheyanne – you’ve found yourself a good one! As for this bark – I love how pretty and festive it is – perfect for V day. Haven’t tried goji berries but will be on the lookout for them.
Geraldine, you must try goji berries, I think you will like them! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, friend! Cheers to a wonderful weekend!
Aaw, I loved your proposal – so sweet 🙂 It’s definitely the little things that do it for me and how the hubs still looks at me with love and adoration even after so many years & two kids later. Love this gorgeous bark! The goji berries and white chocolate are such a magical combo – perfect for Valentine’s Day!
You have the cutest family, Kelly! Your hubs sounds like a total keeper as well! Thanks for the sweet comment, my dear! I hope you guys have a beautiful Valentine’s Day! <3
I love bark, it’s just such a quick, simple recipe. This white chocolate bark looks so scrumptious and pretty with the added berries!
Thanks, Marsha! Cheers to a fabulous weekend!
I love small details, this is such a lovely proposal story! It just melted my heart! Great recipe! Happy Valentine’s day!
Thank you, G! Hope you guys have a wonderful Valentine’s day! Cheers, dear!
Such a sweet proposal story! I love that sushi was involved, it makes everything better. And completely agree that it’s all about the little things they do daily, that’s what gets me every time. I love goji berries and chocolate! One of my favorite combinations, and such a great idea to make bark with it! So satisfying and simple, which is the best.
I couldn’t agree more – sushi totally makes everything better. 😉 Thanks so much for the kind comment, Michelle! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
Sounds like you have a wonderful husband! Great bark, I love it that it is made with white chocolate, white chocolate is my favorite, I like it way more than the normal one.
White chocolate is my favorite too! #GreatTaste! Cheers, Adina – to a fabulous weekend!
Oh my! I would have never associated eel sauce with romance before your story! I also wouldn’t have thought to put goji berries in white chocolate bark. Probably because I’ve never had a goji berry. If they taste like cranberries and fight cancer, I’m totally putting them on my list and throwing them in everything! This white chocolate bark is so pretty and easy I believe I should start here! Happy Valentines Day! XO
Hahaha. You will never look at eel sauce the same, Rachelle! 😉 You need to get some goji berries, girlfriend, they are delicious little morsels. Thanks for the comment love, my sweets! Hope you and the Mr. have a fabulous Valentine’s! XO
Such a beautiful proposal…I love that it was food-related! And I agree, it’s the little things we do everyday that matter most! Boy’s definitely a keeper! I think the very first romantic gesture I recall from Dom was our second dinner date, he asked me to look in the glove compartment of his car for something he needed and low and behold there was a beautiful bottle of perfume…that stole my heart and then one other time he lifted me over a puddle (unexpectedly) and I thought – wow – this guys strong! He’s definitely a keeper! 😉 I love these bars, Chey! And not just because they’re simple but because they look so darn delicious! xo
I love all your Dom stories, Annie!! He sounds so sweet, perfect for one of the sweetest ladies I know! 😉 I hope you guys have a wonderful Valentine’s day, my dear!! xoxo
That is such a cute proposal! This bark sounds amazing. I love that it only has three ingredients, and I’m really excited that one of them is goji berries! They’re the bomb!
Thank so much Amanda! Hope you have a fabulous weekend! Cheers, girlie!
Can you believe I’ve never had goji berries? I know it’s like a total food blogging crime! I can only imagine how amazinggggg this chocolate bark tastes. Love it! Hmm … aside from proposing one of the most romantic things my man ever did from me happened only a few months after we’d been dating. We lived in the same town but went to separate high schools, and one day I called him from school crying because I was having a really bad day. A few hours later, after I finished swim practice, I went out to my car to see someone had left a pink rose underneath my windshield wiper blade. It had been dipped in glitter and smelled simply amazing. It’s the little things that truly warm my heart!
Whaaa? You must get some goji berries in your life immediately, Lauren! So good! Your hubs sounds so sweet! Love that he cheered you up after a bad day! And I loooove that the rose had been dipped in glitter! Swoon! Hope you two have a beautiful Valentine’s Day my dear! xo
I love this bark!!! goji berries?!!! yummm!!! The most romantic gesture anyone has ever done for me? My husband, when he proposed .. he wrote a poem, typed it on paper, burned the edges of the paper, rolled it up and put it in a bottle and had his friend “plant it”. while we were walking along the beach, I found the bottle, opened it, read it and looked up and Paul was on one knee and proposed to me! 🙂
OMG, I LOVE how your husband proposed, Alice!! So sweet!!!! Hope you guys have a beautiful Valentine’s day, friend! Cheers! 🙂
Back when I thought I was a kale smoothie girl (turns out I am so not) I bought a bunch of goji berries to add to the mix. They’ve sat lonely in my cabinet until now. Perfect way for me to use them and I much prefer them mixed with white chocolate instead of kale! Most romantic gesture from my husband? Hmmm…having a bottle of champagne sent to the table at a restaurant when I was on a girls’ trip. He said to enjoy the weekend and he had it covered at home. I love that he knows a little “me” time often makes me appreciate him more. love the eel sauce proposal btw!! a keeper for sure.
Lol, I haven’t tried putting kale in my smoothies yet… I love kale, but i’m a little reserved about drinking it. I’m thinking I won’t be a kale smoothie girl either. 😉 Hope you do use those goji berries, Cathy, even if it isn’t in this bark! Or you could always send ’em to me! Wink Wink! Your husband sounds sweet and I love that he give you “me time”! Thanks for the comment, friend! Cheers to a beautiful weekend and Valentine’s Day!
This is so beautiful! And lucky for me, I have a whole bag of goji berries in my pantry.
And oh my gosh, I LOVE that your husband proposed with eel sauce. How cool is that?!?!
Yay to a supply of Goji berries! Thanks so much for the kind comment, Sues! Cheers, girl!
OMG! Boy sounds adorable! Your proposal story is awesome! The little things that Tom does for me are the things that matter most to me. On to the bark…so totally yummy AND easy to make! Love it! I have tried several additions to homemade bark, but never goji berries. So perfect for Valentine’s Day! Hope you and Boy have a great weekend!
Well I think Boy is pretty adorable… most of the time. 😉 Thanks so much for the comment love, Mary Ann! Hope you and Tom have a beautiful Valentine’s Day! Cheers!
Love your proposal story, Cheyanne! I have to agree with you on both counts…my husband proposing to me was a top romantic moment, but it’s also the little things, too. I notice all of those small things and it just melts my heart. This white chocolate bark looks SO good! Love that you used goji berries! Such an easy and delicious treat! Pinned, of course!
Seems like we all appreciate the smalls things, as nice as the grand gestures are. Thanks for the kind comment and pin, Gayle! Cheers to a wonderful Valentine’s day for you and the hubby! 🙂
Awwwh, that’s so sweet 🙂
I tried making bark a few years ago, but it was a total fail! I am not sure what I did, but it didn’t look anything like this. I am going to give your recipe a go and hope that I am more successful this time.
You definitely need to try making bark again, Dannii, because it is so easy! Hopefully next time goes smoother for you! Thanks for the comment, girl! Cheers! 🙂
Aww, what a sweet proposal! Especially since it involved food 😉 Funny, our first date was at a sushi restaurant too! And my hubby’s proposal a couple of years later would definitely have to be the most romantic moment of my life 🙂 I’m with you though – it’s the little everyday moments now that mean so much to me.
Like sharing some chocolate bark. Oh my goodness. I am loving how fun and festive this is! And easy? And fast? You know that’s right up my alley – I can make this in no time while the kids are napping and have a fun treat for all of us 🙂 Cheers and happy Valentine’s Day friend!
Love that you and your husbands first date was at a sushi restaurant as well! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, as always, Kathryn! Cheers to a fabulous weekend and a happy Valentine’s Day! 🙂
