Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts
1) DIY Chocolate Truffle Kit
This DIY Baking Kit for Chocolate Truffles provides all the pre-measured ingredients and a detailed recipe card so you can make gourmet truffles at home. The kit is hand-packed from start to finish by the Red Velvet team in Brooklyn, NY. The ingredients—including cocoa and sugar—are gluten free. This is the easiest way to bake at home, and a memorable activity for the whole family.
2) Custom Hometown Map Puzzle
Hometown puzzles are a charming way to celebrate a special place. Made to order and hand-finished in the English countryside, each puzzle features your address and a house-shaped novelty piece (known as a “whimsy”) in the center. Crafted of traditional millboard or wood, every map is a personal puzzle to treasure.
