In Japan, Valentine's Day is usually marked by the giving of chocolates. In the past, it was common for women to give chocolate to men, but these days, gender is no longer a factor. The old custom of giving chocolate from men to women, between friends, or to colleagues as a token of appreciation is gradually changing.

Candy and cookies are usually given rather than chocolates.
