Caught the Love Bug? Here are a few Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas to Make Your Partner Feel Special
February, the cure to all New Year blues, is the month of love. Whether you’re currently single, dating up a storm, or all partnered up, chances are you’ve marked February 14 as a day for celebrating love. Although the day of love has long been associated with romantic relationships, times are changing. Today, you can celebrate Valentine’s Day to commemorate all kinds of love. If you’ve caught the love bug and have a significant other, you’d like to make feel special, there are all kinds of things you can do around the city. Whether you plan a romantic date straight out of a rom-com or keep things low-key, a present is a must! If you’re single and ready to mingle, there’s no day quite like Valentine’s Day to go on a first date and meet the love of your life. Or maybe you can ditch it all and simply take yourself out on a solo date or celebrate Galentines with your girls.
No matter how you do it, love is in the air and the right gift is the best way to show the people who love how much you cherish them. Whether you’re doing some last-minute shopping or need a tad bit of help, our handy guide to Valentine’s gift ideas will help you find the perfect present to exemplify all you feel for your special person.
Flowers:
A classic for a reason; a lovely bouquet never gets old. In today’s fast-paced times, many of us miss out on slowing down to smell the flowers, quite literally. Getting a loved one a bunch of fragrant flowers can make their day. Although, word of caution; it’s important to choose the right flowers on Valentine’s Day. If your significant other enjoys grand romantic gestures, then a large bouquet of red roses is the way to go! Red, silky, and aromatic, roses are a symbol of love with good reason. If you’re planning on spending quality time with someone you’re just getting to know, perhaps committing to red roses might be a bit much. Instead, you could pick out an artful arrangement of pink or yellow roses, carnations, lilies, or any other flowers. If you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day with your friends, flowers are a great, and cost-effective, way to show how much you value them. Flower power never fails to impress!Chocolates:
A box of chocolates might seem a bit overdone, but cliches are named so because they work. When you get a box of chocolates from Theobroma, you best believe they’ll make your partner feel the love in the air. Our box of almond rocks is a treat for the taste buds. Crisp high-quality almonds dipped in premium dark chocolate and frozen to perfection, our almond rocks melt in your mouth while providing the perfect crunch. Packaged in an attractive box featuring pastel shades, Theobroma’s almond rocks are the perfect way to sweeten your Valentine’s Day plans.Date Night:
Life is also like a box of chocolates, each experience adding more flavour and sweetness to your journey. If your partner is someone who enjoys going on adventures and trying out new activities, then gifting them with a memorable experience is one of the best presents. As far as date ideas go, the world is your oyster! If you want to go for the tried and tested, buy tickets to a romantic movie or take a walk on the beach while you watch the sunset. However, if you want to push the envelope a bit, you can attend a cooking class, an outdoor screening, a pottery workshop and so much more. If you’re single and not looking to mingle, celebrate Valentine’s with your friend group by throwing a games night or dance party!Stuffed Toys:
A Valentine’s Day idea that never goes out of style is getting your loved one a stuffed toy! While a cute and fluffy teddy bear is a classic, you can also take a bit of a detour and get a toy featuring your partner’s favourite comic book character or animal. Whether they cuddle with it while sleeping or squish it when stressed, they’ll think of you every time they see the stuffed toy. You can also think outside the box and gift your partner an adorable crochet kit for beginners and empower them to learn a new skill and create their own stuffed toy!Thoughtful Note:
If you’ve ever swooned over the idea of someone writing you a romantic love letter, now’s the time to write one yourself! In our era of lightning-fast text messages and video calls, we hardly have tangible proof of how much we mean to the people in our lives. One of the best ways to give your partner a symbol of your feelings they can hold on to is by writing them a love note. You could pen down how you felt when you first met them, how grateful you are to have them in your life and end with a sweet declaration of love. Why stop there, though? You can write love notes for your friends, as well! Often underappreciated, your friends deserve to be told how much you love them and what better way than Valentine’s Day right?Decadent Meal:
It’s often said that the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach. If you want to impress a date or unwind with your partner, a grand meal is the way to go. If you live in Mumbai or any major city in India, you can have your pick of restaurants and cuisines to try. Make sure to book a table in advance and you can indulge in a meal that’s as satisfying as your relationship. If you want to add a personal touch, you can always cook for your significant other! Pull out a recipe and serve up a meal that’ll satiate your partner’s heart as well as their appetite. If you’re worried about dessert, then head straight to Theobroma! From delectable brownies to the most decadent cakes and pastries, at Theobroma, we have everything you need to end your night on a sweet note!Care Package:
If you’re worried about your partner not getting enough downtime, now’s the perfect opportunity to help them relax. All you have to do is assemble a care package that’s chock full of self-care goodies, tailored to your partner’s preferences. If your partner often seems stressed out, get them some skincare products, a candle, and a diffuser, and help them indulge in a spa night. Does your significant other enjoy a particular hobby? Whether they’re into cooking, knitting, painting, or stationery, gift them the essentials they need to pursue their passion and help them find pockets of joy.Collectibles:
From stamps to fridge magnets, collecting items can be a source of pleasure for many. If your partner enjoys curating a collection of objects, then you’ve got a great gift idea right there! Simply add to their collection and you’ll instantly become their favourite person. If your significant other boasts an impressive collection of coins, head to an antique dealer and see if you can score an item that’ll add value to their collection. Maybe your partner enjoys collecting kitschy crockery. If so, you can find decorative plates that’ll bolster their collection. If you’re looking to add to your partner’s mug collection, head to Theobroma and find cups featuring whimsical artwork in an array of colours.Photographs:
A picture speaks a thousand words, and the same goes when it comes to Valentine's Day ideas too. Whether you’re celebrating with your partner or friends, you probably have a ton of cherished memories you’d like to commemorate. Why not get pictures from a fun date, outing, birthday, or anniversary printed and framed? And what’s better? Get a bunch of pictures framed to create a memory wall in a space you share with your partner. A thoughtful picture in an elegant photo frame is not only a great gift but also allows your loved ones to display their favourite moments with you.At the end of the day, it’s not about celebrating the people you love on a specific day, but rather cherishing them daily. At Theobroma, we believe in making every day extra-ordinary and offer an array of desserts, baked treats, and culinary delights that suffuse your life with joy. Celebrate this Valentine’s Day with the people you love and Theobroma to make even the mundane the most special.
