YumSugar Gift Guide: The Fiendish Chocoholics

If you tell me that there's not a single chocoholic on your holiday shopping list, I'm going to have to call you a liar.

If you tell me that there's not a single chocoholic on your holiday shopping list, I'm going to have to call you a liar. Everyone knows at least one — they may be a closet fiend, but they're on your list — and luckily, they're easy to shop for. You could rush out and buy them a box of generic sweets, but why stop there? Why not put a little thought behind your gift? No time? Well, no worries, I've rounded up a bunch of gifts that would be perfect for the chocoholic in your life. You could test their knowledge with Chocolate Smarts, a set of 60 cards with facts, tips, and chocolate techniques. Or, if you'd rather satiate their sweet tooth, surprise them with Hotel Chocolat's Cool Yule Goody Bag or a set of Theo's 3400 Phinney Bars. Looking for more? Scroll through for several other chocoholic gift options.

Why Settle For Ordinary S'Mores?

Today is National S'mores Day and while you could easily whip up a batch by going for the standard graham crackers, Hershey's bar and jet-puff marshmallows, why not treat yourself to something a little more decadent?

Today is National S'mores Day and while you could easily whip up a batch by going for the standard graham crackers, Hershey's bar and jet-puff marshmallows, why not treat yourself to something a little more decadent? Recchiuti Chocolates of San Francisco is offering a deluxe S'more's Kit for you to savor. The eight serving kit comes complete with handmade vanilla bean marshmallows, delicious Recchiuti Grahams and a wonderfully bittersweet (85%) chocolate bar. The kit will cost you $22, but National S'mores Day only comes once a year, and besides you're worth it, right?
