The modern holiday gift guide – make it a thoughtful stand out!

The modern holiday gift guide – make it a thoughtful stand out!

There is an art to selecting and sending the perfect corporate gift. Making sure important recipients feel like you took the time to choose something made especially for them pays back in more ways than one. No one wants to send or receive a gift that gets tossed aside and forgotten faster than the time it took to open it. From delivery to unboxing to sampling the delicious artisan items, Totally Chocolate gifts are sure to be an unforgettable experience.

Bulleted out below are the three most important things to remember as you go about your gift search. We have also sorted through our best selling gift options to outline incredible ideas for all budgets and corporate relationships. The holidays can be stressful and are always busy, so let us help you check one major item off of your list!

1. Personalize:

Something that was clearly well thought out and made specific to an individual or a company is always a hit. Personalizing can mean everything from adding a card with a note written specifically for the business gift recipient to adding your logo or customized artwork in non-traditional ways. Totally Chocolate’s online customizer makes personalization easy. Simply go online and pick your product, select your packaging, flavors and designs, then personalize your chocolate by uploading art directly to https://totallychocolate.com/create-a-personalized-gift/ Whether it’s an indulgent two-pound bar, an ensemble of shareable chocolate or a set of European-style cookies topped with rich, creamy Belgian Chocolate, there are options for virtually every design – and budget.

2. Customize:

Make generic gifting a thing of the past. For your gift to really stand out, it needs to be extra special from start to finish. Create the ultimate branded gift or elegant self-promotion using our extensive collection of fully customizable chocolate gifts and promo pieces. Make a lasting impression and go way beyond business as usual by working with our team of chocolate specialists to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece that every client, customer and friend will truly appreciate – and brag about for months to come!

3. Create an experience:

Presentation is everything and the unboxing experience has become a social sensation for a reason! Expectations have changed. With the rise of unboxing as an essential element to gift giving, more and more companies are finding ways to improve how their gifts are packaged. The experience should start at their doorstep and continue with every detail and step:

-Receiving the shipment—Gone are the days where a plain brown shipper box is acceptable. It says “generic” from the moment it arrives. Instead, your gift should arrive in a shipper box that immediately communicates the specialness of what’s inside. Colorful, branded and made with the finest materials makes all the difference – and it makes everyone in the office envious too.

– Opening the box—Once the shipper box is opened, the magic continues. Imagine a package with a fully customized lid or one of eight beautiful, hand-drawn sleeves enveloping a silver, gold, red, black or Signature blue box. We have every taste and possible preference covered in our in-house-designed prints. From stunning poinsettias to modern, shimmering trees to playful candy canes, whichever you choose is sure to delight. And don’t forget to add a personalized note via a gift card or custom folded card!

• Discovering what’s inside—Opening the box lid reveals custom engraving with unparalleled precision detail, made of the purest, most decadent chocolate with a smooth, velvety texture and flavor on par with the great chocolatiers of the world. Your clients and friends will marvel at the creaminess and rich flavor of any of our chocolate gifts!
• Disposing of the empty box— Our beautiful packaging is recyclable. We want the gift to leave a lasting impression on the recipient, not the environment.
