Next time a friend or a family member has a special occasion, no matter how small, a chocolate gift box is a perfect way to appreciate them. Anniversaries and Valentine’s Days are popular chocolate-giving occasions, but why not surprise them at a more unconventional milestone? Use these unexpected occasions to celebrate with chocolate to brainstorm your next delicious gift idea.
Half-Birthdays
Give your loved one a little birthday joy when they least expect it! Most people don’t make a big deal out of that halfway point between their birthdays, but you can let them know you care with a box of sweet treats. They’ll anticipate their full birthday even more.
Engagements
The bride or groom in your family will grin from ear to ear when they open a chocolate gift box commemorating their engagement. Before they send everybody their gift registry, why not give them something delectable to enjoy? The happy couple will anticipate a sweet life together as they share your thoughtful gift.
Disappointments
An F on a test or a missed promotion can get a person down in the dumps. Cheer up your loved one and let them know that you’re in their corner by gifting them their favorite chocolates. A friend who’s hurting needs a little extra TLC! Turn their disappointment into a celebration of their perseverance.
Housewarmings
For your friend who bought their first house or the new neighbors who just moved in, a box of sweets is the perfect gesture. Welcome them into the next stage of their life by indulging their sweet tooth. Pick an assortment of different chocolates—peanut butter, cherry, dark chocolate—to add variety.
Thank-Yous
Sure, you could write a note or say “thank you” in person. But what better way to show somebody how grateful you are than by giving them a box of sweetness? Whether they’re your kid’s tutor, your wedding planner, or your favorite client, the gift of chocolate will make them smile. They’ll remember you as a kind and generous person.
Next time you’ve got a special occasion on the calendar, pick up a unique box of chocolates to help that special person celebrate. Let them know you’re thinking of them when they least expect it! Think of these unexpected occasions to celebrate with chocolate next time you want to shower a loved one with sweetness.
