As romantic as Valentine’s Day is proposed to be, we’ve all had our fair share of duds on the day. Whether you waited four hours for a table at that “it” restaurant, swapped gifts with a partner only for them to get you dowdy pajamas, or celebrated your singledom and received an epic hangover the next day, the message is clear — Valentine’s Day gifting and celebrating can sometimes be a miss.

Perhaps it’s because there’s just not a foolproof formula for celebrating the occasion as an adult. Do you go for romance? Spring for a four-course dinner? Stick to a bottle of wine? Life as a kid whose only concern was what drugstore Valentine’s Day card set you were going to pick out (and the corresponding candy to go with it) was just so much easier.

Luckily, there’s a totally adult, totally upgraded version of those cards out there and it’s called Sugarwish. The gifting company (which is a sister brand of Apartment Therapy favorite Vinebox) allows shoppers to curate yummy treat boxes in several categories. The company started out with candy, and now they’ve expanded to cookies, popcorn, snacks, coffee and tea, and dog treats(!!) — to create a completely custom gift you know your recipient will love. The sizes range from mini (two treat options) to extra-large, which boasts an epic selection of up to 12 themed goodies. Translation: They’ll no longer have to sift through a bag of mixed candy bars or popcorn tin just to find their favorite flavors.

The best part? Sugarwish packages everything up into a charming box that’s ideal for gifting, so you can just take credit for curating the perfect Valentine’s Day present without any of the stress. You can also choose to text or email your recipient to alert them of their gift, meaning you don’t even need a mailing address to spread the love. Ready to hear what awesome treat combinations await? Warning: You may want to buy yourself a box, too — after all, we’re all for self-love.
