While truffles and roses are known as classic gifts to sum up a holiday for lovers they’re not exactly breaking the mold. If your love language involves unique twists on food and drinks then the below are sure to spark affection. Read on for a starter guide on gifts that are outside that heart shaped-box.
If mochi is your passion, this 24-piece Vegan Collection box from Mochidoki is the way to go. With coconut-based flavor bombs filled with chocolate hazelnut, lychee, passion fruit, mango, matcha coconut, and classic Coconut everyone will be pleased. A limited edition cherry chocolate, non-vegan, for the holiday of love is also available as well as the standard tray with all hits and no misses.
“After learning alongside Japanese pastry chefs, dairy scientists and food technologists, and diligently researching the science and history of the hand-held treat, founder Ken Gordon launched Mochidoki in 2015 as a wholesale brand serving the foodservice industry.”
A New York based company, Mochidoki is known for quality. Their mostly gluten-free and always non-GMO mochi use only real fruit purées. Classics like red bean with chopped adzuki, ube (with purple potato), and espresso can all be ordered up at your discretion. Giftable across the country and packed to stay freezer ready.
