Need a Splashy Last Minute Valentine’s Day Gift? Try This Dessert Box

Everything was at least good, and many treats were downright spectacular—the toffee with rose petals, for instance, and the strawberry cheesecake bark with striations of “crust.” The 10 different-flavored macarons were all fresh, and I appreciated the breadth of truffle varieties, which included key lime, piña colada, and carrot spice, among the traditional chocolate. The sea salt caramel popcorn was not as crispy as if it were stored by itself, but it still had some crunch. That’s the only nit I have after trying at least one bite of all 47 items.

In all, this is a very well-curated board with high-end sourcing (the caramels, for instance, are from Portland, Oregon-based confectioner Wildwood) that I wouldn’t hesitate to send as a gift, especially given Boarderie’s reliable overnight shipping. (Though my box arrived within 24 hours, it’s still safest to order a day or two ahead if possible, to account for any unforeseen delays.) Just be sure to know your valentine’s diet status before sending it, and ensure they have plenty of friends or family to share it with.
