Is it normal that my mom did this?

Since a few weeks ago I was planning on making chocolate treats for my boyfriend of 1 year and 2 months for Valentine's day. So, my mom, knowing that I've done this for my previous boyfriends, bought a red, heart shaped box and some of those mini paper cupcake holders for me to use. She set it on the table and told me about them, so I said thanks.
Then, on Tuesday night while I was't home (3 days before Valentine's), she had taken the ingredients and slopped together some carelessly made chocolate, used all the paper cups, and put them in the red box. I did not know about this until the next day when my boyfriend came over and she presented the box of chocolates to him (2 DAYS EARLY) in front of me, saying "look! I made chocolate for you!" He reacted by being surprised, smiled and said "awww", and thanked her a lot before giving her a big hug. Meanwhile I just stood there in disbelief. My mom even had the nerve to ask me what I think of the chocolate by giving me one that didn't fit. It tasted awful. Now I don't have a gift for my boyfriend and it's the morning of Valentine's day. We are supposed go on a date and I know he is going to give me a nice gift. He is such a nice guy and is also my best friend. I was really looking forward to giving him something special that I put effort into and this is just wrong. I am so insulted and hurt by this that I don't even know what to do. How would you react if you were in this situation?

        One gets attacked by dogs alot if they sense that you are either a weak/bad person.

          True, my dog starts barking like crazy when "bad people" get at my door. And I'm like; Nah, motherfucker. Not today, you gonna die first!

          It has happened since I have been a kid. I usually get attacked by birds too.

    So I did tell her after she repeatedly and aggressively asked why I was mad, and her response was the following:
    -That is a stupid reason
    -You're just mad because you're too lazy to make chocolate for him
    -You're just mad because you didn't feel like making it before you went to bed or this morning and therefore you didn't plan
    -You spend your whole life being mad
    -Don't blame things on others just because you messed up
    -Don't take it out on others when you are in a shit mood
    I could point out how none of those arguments make actual sense, but I'd rather not talk to her again anytime soon.

      She is jealous of him, she fears you might marry him and leave her...

      Wow :( I would move out as soon as possible. That's ridiculous behavior.

    She is obviously competing with you for his affections. Tell your man and/or you could try to confront the problem at its source.

    She has no boundaries and might not even be aware of it. Sounds like she's vicariously having a Valentine's Day of her own. Talk to her.

    That vicarious cougar stuff probably means she needs sex. Time to look for an apartment.

    Your mom is trying to sabatoge your relationship. Not acceptable! Tell your man what she did and tell off your mom

    When shit like this happens you know it's time to think about moving out. Your mother had absolutely no right to do that, but perhaps it was a slightly less than subtle hint that she wants to get rid of you. I'd suggest explaining things to your boyfriend. I'm sure he'll understand.

    Mom's are super weird. Call her out on it. Mid life crisis or something. How old is she/you?

    Well your mom is a creep for trying to steal her daughters boyfriend. Tell her shes an old hag and date some dudes her own age.
