But do you REALLY want to show your love?

The Ritz-Carlton uptown's 14-Carat Chocolate Package should do. You get:

* Five-course, all-dessert Champagne and chocolate dinner for two, including pairings such as Chocolate Pistachio and Raspberry Macaron with Moët & Chandon Nectar Rosé Imperial.

* Two nights in The Ritz-Carlton Suite, which has "floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of Charlotte."

* A private dessert cooking class for two at Bar Cocoa’s Cocoa Lab Kitchen.

* A Le Vian 14K White Gold and Chocolate Diamond Pendant Necklace.

* A Montblanc Chocolate Brown Bohème Fountain Pen.

* Weekend brunch for two at Bar Cocoa.

* The Honey Detox and Chocolate Truffle Body Treatment and Massage for two at the hotel's spa.

* A dedicated private car and driver throughout your stay.

* Limousine service to and from the hotel and a local address or to and from the hotel to the Charlotte airport.

The price tag is $14,000 -- and yes, that includes tax and tip. Interested? You can get "personalized reservations assistance" (I should think so) from the hotel's Ashley Branch at 704-549-4735. Note: You do need to call seven days in advance.
