Is it time to buy that special someone a gift? Are they a chocolate lover? You may think treating them to their favourite bar or box of chocolates is the best way forward but there are a wide range of other options that will impress their sweet tooth! Take a look at our top picks and find the right chocolate themed gift with ease.
A Chocolate Factory Experience
If you are buying for someone who loves to get out and about then why not combine their sense of adventure with their love of chocolate and buy them a chocolate factory experience? You can be sure that the idea of visiting a place that is dedicated to making their favourite treat will get them excited and provide them with a memory they will never forget.
The great thing about chocolate factories that have been opened to the public is that they take you on a tour of how chocolate is made, packaged, flavoured and sold. They will also find out more about the company the makes the chocolate and there is usually lots of free samples for them to enjoy as they make their way around.
Want to make it even more special? Why not include lunch or afternoon tea with the gift to make it a full day of fun?
A Chocolate Tasting Kit
Does the person you are buying for love to host events? Give them a chocolate tasting kit that they can use as the theme of their next night in! There are a number of great tasting kits available to choose from and you can even personalise some to include the types of chocolate that you think they will really love.
To enjoy the kit, each person has a small piece of each chocolate to eat or drink and a tasting card on which they will score each option as they work their way through. At the end of the evening, everyone swaps scores and the champion chocolate is decided! The great thing about tasting kits is that they are a great after dinner experience that will change up the usual routine and leave everyone glad they attended.
A Luxury Hot Chocolate Set
Drinking hot chocolate is a delicious and warming experience that many of us love. Whether you like yours with cream and marshmallows or flavoured with mint, orange or something else – you can be certain that a hot chocolate set will always be appreciated. Plus, hot chocolate is a great gift when you want to package it up and post it as it will give them something to open and enjoy straight away!
The best way to choose the right hot chocolate set is to think about quality and luxury as this will help you to find the right option that suits their taste. Rather than buying cheap powdered hot chocolate, choose chocolate flakes that have been designed to offer a luxurious taste experience.
Combine the hot chocolate with toppings, a mug or even a hot chocolate shaker to help them create the perfect drink every time they have a hot chocolate craving.
Chocolate Themed Clothing
If you are unable to see the person you are buying for on their special day and worry about sending food items in the post then why not use their love of chocolate to inspire a great clothing gift instead? There are plenty of different types of items available to choose from and you can be certain that it will put a smile on their face when they unwrap it.
From socks designed with their favourite chocolate bar to jumpers and t-shirts that proudly display chocolate, there really is a funny and suitable option for everyone. Remember that you will need to know their size if you are going to buy items that are wearable, but if this is an issue then choose chocolate themed accessories instead!
A Chocolate Subscription
What’s better than being gifted a pile of chocolate on your special day? Getting regular deliveries of your favourite chocolate all year round! If you want to show someone that you care and remind them on a regular basis then choosing a subscription gift is a great way forward.
First you pick out the chocolate food and beverages that you know they will love and arrange to have them delivered on a certain date each month. There are a number of subscription services that offer this, but you can also package and send monthly boxes if you have time and are organised enough.
Make sure that the recipient knows that they will be getting monthly treats for however long you have chosen in case they are going away or won’t be around to collect their treats one month!
A Chocolate Hamper
If you are keen to give a gift that has a real sense of wow then a chocolate hamper could be the perfect solution. Many chocolate retailers offer stunning chocolate hampers that are filled with their best-selling chocolate treats, meaning all you need to do is select the brand that your recipient loves the most!
If you’d prefer to create your own hamper then you can either request a bespoke one from a chocolate hamper seller or start collecting your own chocolate products and package them up into a hamper yourself. Doing it yourself does take more time and effort but it gives you complete freedom over what to choose, allowing you to create something personal that will go down a treat!
