as addition to @vulpiximisa’s post I want to point out that the subtitles switched Otae’s and Tsukuyo’s messages (accidentally I hope)
SARUTOBI - Purple Square Box, top center
TEXT: Gin-san Megane he - Sa Kagura
TRANSLATION: “To Gin-san and Glasses from Sa Kagura”
store bought, personalized decoration
TSUKUYO - Red Square box, bottom right
TEXT: Kagura yori Ai wo komete Gintoki Shinpachi he
TRANSLATION: “From Kagura with love, to Gintoki and Shinpachi”
store bought, personalized decoration
OTAE - Pink Pouch with paper rose bottom left
TEXT: Gin-chan Shinpachi Daisuki ♡ Kagura
TRANSLATION: “I love Gin-chan and Shipachi ♡ -Kagura”
handmade
Meanwhile KAGURA’s original chocolate
TEXT: Gin-chan Shinpachi he -Kagura
TRANSLATION: “To Gin-chan and Shipachi -Kagura”
Store bought, pink heart box
Both Sarutobi and Tsukuyo used the Kanji for “Kagura.”
As vulpiximisa pointed out, Otae captured Kagura’s tone and speaking style the best since they were the closest. Otae got Kagura’s habits down including writing her name in Hiragana. Otae even got Kagura’s penchant of putting a heart ♡ on the message. As an example see below the choco kagura had made for tsukuyo to give. xD
^^Also notice that Tsukuyo copied what Kagura had ordered to be written on the former’s chocolate above. I also think that Sarutobi followed Kagura’s greeting card on the outside of the heart box for her own choco too.
I like to believe that Sarutobi’s and Tsukuyo are heartfelt (honmei) choco even though they were store bought and even if their messages were a copy (i think) of Kagura’s.
Another thing
Otae said that she was giving the dark matter chocolate out of “obligation” (giri choco) but hers is most definitely “truth choco” (honmei choco) because it’s obviously made by her (only she could make dark matter chocolate)!! Home-made and Store-bought is traditionally what sets honmei choco apart from the obligatory (giri) ones.
Though now I’m wondering if she also gave black matter to Kagura at the start of the chapter. I’m saying this because Otae had bought store-made giri choco for the club patrons at the opening of episode/chapter, meanwhile Yorozuya family got the black matter XD. I am betting that after teaching Kagura about Valentines, Otae had been at home trying to make chocolate by herself the whole day for them. OH OTAE.
also.. ahhh. The anime didn’t adapt Kagura destroying an entire line of valechoco shoppers so that Otae can get in line first :(

Amane Hikaru ranked no.1 in most valentine chocolates received in 2017. The top 50 winners of valechoco got their own character badges in full color art by Takeshi Konomi.
Then in a bizarre turn of events, Konomi Takeshi & Co. turned the Valechoco Top 50 Character Badges into a surprise ranking contest! :DDDDDD
The results were Announced during Konomi Takeshi’s Talkshow last December 24, 2017
What really concerns me is Kaneda fifth place. How this happened. What are the reasons. I needed to google him to realize what team he was even in. Explain please.
