Platonic or romantic, a luxury box of truffles says “I love you.” Ferrero Rocher’s classic 48-count tasting tray will make anyone’s eyes turn. Plus, our favorite chocolatey truffles from top-rated brands like Vosges and La Maison du Chocolat are so enviable that you’ll wind up buying a second gift box for yourself. Looking for something on the unconventional side? Milk Bar’s Chocolate B’Day Cake Truffles are an explosion of gooey cake batter that can beat traditional truffles any day.

Including Raaka to Compartés, every chocolatier on this list has earned the seal of approval from our editors and testing.

The best assorted chocolates feature a little of everything: milk, dark, and white chocolates; caramels and butterscotches; and even nougats, popcorn, and fruit. There’s a delicious treat here for everyone, whether it’s the timeless See’s Candies variety collection or thoughtfully curated gift baskets.

Chocolate and fruit: Your first thought may be chocolate-covered strawberries, a classic pairing we know and love. Chocolate, however, pairs well with many fruits, like citrus, pear, papaya, and cherry. If your gift’s recipient likes a bit of a culinary adventure, look no further than these fruit-packed recommendations.

Coincidentally, our editors have a lot of love for New England-based chocolate cookies, and we’re sure your giftee will, too. From Levain Bakery in New York City to Berger Cookies in Baltimore, the area is home to drool-worthy chocolate cookies. Luckily, these cookies are available for online order and delivery, so your special person can enjoy them no matter what part of the country they’re in.

For extra-special occasions, find the perfect chocolate gift in these desserts, including babka, chocolate truffle cake, and Ina Garten’s show-stopping layer cake. Or kick things up a notch with the Italian rainbow cookies from Zola Bakes, which Senior Commerce Editor Danielle St. Pierre says are “drizzled with thick chocolate, so every bite is the perfect combination of fruity jam, almond cake, and rich chocolate.”

There’s a surprising variety of cacao products on the market, and we’ve found some of the most impressive chocolate condiments one can get their hands on. For the friend who can’t resist pantry favorites, Ghia’s crunchy hazelnut spread with puffed quinoa marries nostalgia with innovation. For the baker in your life, high-end cacao powder or a unique everything-brownie seasoning will surely pique their interest. And for the all-around chocolate connoisseur, we have a variety pack of chocolate sauces they can pour over ice cream, baked goods, and more.

Chocolate can be pricey, and bakers often settle for what’s available at the grocery store. Make their day, nae their year, by giving them something more luxurious. Whether that’s baking sticks to encourage a few batches of pain au chocolat or a cookbook to help improve their tempering skills, these gifts will surely be a pleasant surprise.

Our selection of the best chocolate drinks takes you on an international cacao voyage, from the delicious Honduran hot cocoa mix to Austrian chocolate liqueur. Pair these gifts with a bag of marshmallows and a warming spice like cinnamon or nutmeg, and your giftee will be on their way to chocolate bliss in no time.

Advent calendars are the holiday gift that keeps giving. Made to entice your giftee throughout December, these calendars are packed with smooth, high-end chocolates and confections. Plus, your gift will stand out from the usual box of chocolate, as our picks light up, play holiday songs, stand alone for display, and even become ornaments for the Christmas tree.
