With that in mind, I tend to research using food blogs and other sites which I have found great gifts in the past on.
Luckily this year I was helped by coming across a review of Cake Suzette's Cake O's. Little cakes nicely wrapped sent anywhere in the U.S.
Of course, the shipping will cost you more in farther reaches of the US but I think it will a beautifully packaged surprise for my mom on her Birthday!
I'll let you know her review!
Those cakes looks sooooooo delicious.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the idea about your blog. Choosing the right gift for the right person isn't easy. I like to buy smart and creative gifts for the people who I care about; I don't like to buy expensive and impersonal gifts.
Buying gifts is an art unto itself...and I have to admit...these small cakes look like the perfect item, particularly if you have to mail them...this is a great idea for a blog!...
ReplyDeleteI really like this blog. Your design is perfect and talking about hard-to-find gifts for people we love is great. As our parents age there really isn't anything to "buy" them, as they pretty much have everything they need and want. A thoughtful gift like a cake being delivered would be a welcome and fun gift delivered to them. Now, I am trying to fine the perfect gift for my sister who has and is there for me while I've been going through chemo. I want to find something really special for her. It's not about how much money to spend, but something heartfelt.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I also have a hard time finding gifts for my family, so I will look into this. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a blog! I'm sure the time you spend looking for the perfect gift will be appreciated by others. Is there a particular geographic area you would be focusing your searches on?
ReplyDeleteI agree. Finding gifts for "people who have everything" is tough. My mother-in-law has sent away for some food items for us, and they were really good, but we've never sent her that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Love your blog theme!
Andrea,
ReplyDeleteI am going to try to find gifts that someone could get or send from anywhere in particularly the US. However, I may find something local and I would note that. I live in the Boston area so I may find a great little store that would be difficult for others outside the area to take advantage of their gift offerings.
