Desserts Make Perfect Gifts

“Roses are red.  Violets are blue.  But I’d rather have cookies.  Wouldn’t you, too?”

That might not be the way you remember this little rhyme, but let’s face it — a lot of people feel this way.  Flowers are nice, but are they really worth the money?  A tie lasts a long time – which is part of the problem if you don’t love it.  Perfume?  Headache-inducing.  A gift card? Impersonal.

Which leads us to another literary reference.  Who said the best way to a man’s heart is through his stomach?  Whoever it was, they were a genius, although perhaps it is a bit sexist.  After all, isn’t the best way to anyone’s heartthrough their stomach?  And well, desserts are just the cherry on top – far surpassing any other food.

So where do you go to get gift desserts?  Some people would make a beeline to the candy store, but while there’s no doubt that chocolates are divine, they don’t really count as dessert.

What we’re really taking about is cookies, cakes, pies and puddings.  They’re referred to as “scrumptious desserts” on mostlydesserts.com, a website devoted to the truly delectable.

You could spend hours baking your own, but then you’d still need to package up this fragile surprise and send it off as expediently as possible.  So why not just save one big step and go straight to mostlydesserts.com? Here, all you have to do is find the dessert of your dreams and click.  There you’ll see, for better or worse, the ingredients and calorie count.  (I don’t recommend making that information part of the gift card).

Desserts are the perfect choice for almost anyone – from your grandma to your graduate, Boss’s Day or baby shower, and even your own true love.  Especially your own true love.

Desserts are not just a path to someone else’s heart; they’re a gift straight from yours.  They’re unique.  They’re fun.  They can be shared with family and friends or savored in solitude.  Yum.

They’re truly the perfect gift.  And if the giftee doesn’t like desserts?  Well then, you’ll just have to eat it yourself, won’t you?
