When it comes to Valentine’s Day, the perfect gift is ideally practical, Instagrammable, and hopefully edible, right? Despite what you might think, it’s not impossible to find. These days you can get just about everything delivered, so if your giftee has a sweet tooth, you’ve come to the right place. In fact, the best places to buy desserts online are actually pretty affordable. Unlike flower deliveries, it won’t cost you a hundred dollars or more to give someone the gift of sugary confections.
You also don’t need to be celebrating a birthday or Valentine’s Day to send these gifts. Many of the options below are customizable, so you can really make any occasion a holiday by sending them. If your long-distance friend, family member, or partner recently got a new job, new apartment, or has a birthday coming up, of course those are all great reasons to send something. But if someone you know is going through something tough like a breakup, job loss, or anything going on in their life, sending a sweet treat is a great way to let them know you’re thinking of them. I love sending gifts to friends when they least expect it, so deliveries don’t have to be limited to birthdays.
Keep scrolling for a list of the best desserts you can buy online for Valentine’s Day and beyond. And don’t worry, this list is so much more than cookies — did you know you can actually ship someone a whole pie? Happy shopping!
