On the eve of the main holiday of the year, adults frantically go through options for gifts that they could please their children, colleagues and loved ones. But most kids today already have everything their parents could have dreamed of at their age. And we cannot predict the desires of our work colleagues at all. The question arises: “What should you give to express your gratitude and indicate the person’s value to you?” There is a universal solution that will definitely appeal to both a restless young person and a friend at work – this is a holiday box of sweets.
Sweet gifts for New Year 2024
The undoubted advantages of sweet gifts include:
- versatility. Suitable for both adults and children;
- relevance. Such a gift is timeless, out of fashion, appropriate always and everywhere;
- solemnity. Creates a festive atmosphere. Especially if the packaging is made in New Year’s style;
- availability. You can choose and purchase sweet sets wherever you are.
And, of course, such a gift brings a lot of positive emotions, good mood and gratitude from the recipient.
The main thing you should focus on when choosing a gift for a sweet tooth for the New Year 2024 is not the quantity of sweets inside, but their quality. Receive a huge box with dubious contents that will lie on the back shelf until next year? Or a miniature sweet gift, the delicacy from which will be eaten with pleasure on the same day? Which option is preferable? We think it’s the last one.
And what treasures should be in such a chest, we will describe in detail in this article.
Wafer rolls
Miniature straws are comfortable to hold in your hand, they hardly crumble, and therefore are ideal as one of the components of an exclusive New Year’s gift. Moreover, you can put not just one flavor, but a whole assortment into a sweet gift, for example, carefully tying the tubes with a red ribbon. Gourmets in the world of sweets will appreciate options with vanilla, nut and creamy chocolate filling. And what a divine crunch the wafer rolls make! The entire household will definitely come running to this alluring sound and offer help in tasting.
Raw sweets
Raw treats are desserts made from whole, unprocessed plant ingredients that retain their beneficial properties. You will not find sugar, lactose or gluten in such sweets. Confectioners use nuts, dried fruits, seeds, cocoa, milk, and vegetable oils (coconut, almond, rice) as the basis for healthy Raw recipes. Natural syrups replace sugar here.
Despite the organic composition, Raw sweets are stored for quite a long time and do not spoil. Jams, dried fruits, craft eco-chocolate, dragees, chocolate-covered fruits, Rawcake, cakes, chiapuddings, cakes, sweets: the variety of flavor combinations and the number of variations of healthy Raw desserts will be the envy of large industrial production.
Giving Raw sweets as a New Year’s gift or as an addition to it means taking care of the health of the recipient, and perhaps opening the door to the world of proper nutrition. And, of course, Raw desserts are incredibly tasty and aesthetically pleasing. Children or adults with allergies, lactose or gluten intolerance will be especially happy with this gift.
Candies with marzipan
This sophisticated delicacy is called truly Christmas. And the reason for this is the famous Nutcracker. Remember what it was like there: tea and coffee, chocolate and caramel, and also marzipan. Chocolate almond-sugar candies come with dried apricots, prunes, orange, nougat, cream, cherries and even rum: there is plenty to choose from to form a sweet gift for the New Year.
Did you know that marzipan contains a large amount of vitamin E and increases the body’s resistance to stress? For fans of the filling of floured almonds with sugar syrup, it’s time to rejoice, because their favorite dessert is not only tasty, but also supports the functioning of the nervous system.
Chocolate candies
Would you say it’s a banality? We will say – an eternal classic. High-quality sweets are an integral part of any New Year’s gift and its main decoration, if you may, the cherry on the cake. Gone are the days when chocolate was a cross between caramel and marmalade. Today, workers in the chocolate industry pamper consumers with real masterpieces that are worthy of the proud title of “Main Dessert of the Year.”
