Everything is more expensive this year, so people don’t have the money to buy expensive candies for their loved ones, who share the cost of everything.
Sweethearts understands that. So they have created, reasonably priced candies, that are fitting for 2026’s Valentine’s Day.
The Love In This Economy hearts have phrases like, “SPLIT RENT, SHARE LOGN, CAR POOL, BUY N BULK, and COOK FOR 2.”
“Sweethearts has always evolved with the times by staying aware of current dating trends and relationships — and being practical is having a moment,” said Evan Brock, vice president of marketing for Spangler Candy Company, the maker of Sweethearts. “That’s why some of the messages on our Sweethearts candies aren’t just about finding love the old-fashioned way this year.”
Therefore, there are still hearts that read things such as “CUTIE PIE, LOVE BUG, and MARRY ME.”
