Need a last-minute gift idea for Mother's Day? Here are a few to please our mothers if we can't get them the moon.
The last Sunday in May is not a day like any other. It is the day of the year when we honor those who gave us life: our mothers. The perfect opportunity to show them all our affection and gratitude, as a sign of this very special bond that unites us to them. Unfortunately, as full of love as our intentions may be, inspiration is not always there when it comes to finding what to offer them as the big day approaches.
If this is your case, don't worry: here are 5 ideas for original and delicious last-minute gifts for Mother's Day, which will not fail to put a lovely smile on the face of their lucky recipient.
A gourmet box for Mother's Day
There is no doubt that our mothers deserve the best. If, like many of us, yours is a gourmet, why limit yourself to just one culinary delicacy for Mother's Day? To offer your mother an explosion of flavors without compromise, opt for a gourmet gift box! More than a simple selection of products, it is an assortment of refined dishes housed in an elegantly designed box that will wonderfully reflect all the esteem you have for the one who brought you into the world.
Is Madame more of a fan of sweet treats? Or, on the contrary, is a savory farandole what will make her happy? You don't have the answer? Rest assured, the Paris Gourmand sweet and savory box also plays the role of a last-minute gift for Mother's Day wonderfully.
Fine chocolates, the essential for Mother's Day
Chocolates as a Mother's Day gift? Yes, but not just any chocolates: exceptional chocolates, made from high-end ingredients and the expertise of a Meilleur Ouvrier de France. Who, more than our mothers, deserves to treat themselves to an unforgettable moment of comfort by tasting delicious chocolates? Appreciated by all and in all seasons, the king of confectionery and the symbol of gastronomic refinement is one of the essential gifts for Mother's Day. Its only drawback? It will be difficult for you not to taste it before it arrives in the hands of the person concerned...
Choose between a surprising chocolatey nibble with drawers full of secrets, a heart-shaped box containing delicate milk chocolate, a pouch of dark, milk and white chocolate fritures or a multitude of other stunning chocolate creations…
Last minute treat: macarons
With their creamy ganache and crispy, light shells, macarons make an excellent last-minute gift for Mother's Day. Handcrafted with the meticulous care of a goldsmith, macarons come in a variety of styles to suit our mothers' desires.
On this spring Mother's Day, some will appreciate the refreshing delicacy of fruity macarons with classic flavors, such as raspberry or lemon, or cleverly daring ones like mango-redcurrant or blackcurrant-violet. Others will delight in the tenderness of creamy chocolate macarons in all its forms, with caramel or even hazelnut praline.
After all, why choose? For Mother's Day, give her the gift of a timeless moment of pleasure with a box with a neat and original design, containing 12 macarons, 16 macarons or 32 macarons!
Tea: a non-guilty pleasure for our mothers
Are you looking for a Mother's Day gift idea that you can consume without moderation? Opt for a gift whose virtue is matched only by its refinement: tea. Designed in the style of the greatest perfumes, Fauchon teas combine authenticity and originality through aromatic combinations that will delight the most discerning palates. Elegantly presented in boxes or tins, our teas come in a variety of flavors full of surprises - like pineapple strawberry and hibiscus rooibos and apricot lemon verbena iced green tea - or loaded with memories, which will transport you to a garden in Paris or to the counter of a pastry shop to enjoy a chocolate éclair.
Mother’s Day: the cherry on the cake at the last minute!
To top it all off and make this last-minute Mother’s Day gift more permanent, add a little something extra to your choice. What item will you choose to celebrate this special occasion? A scented candle with notes of iris, cedarwood and musk? A tea timer for a perfectly mastered infusion time? Or perhaps a duo of two cups to enjoy it with your mom?
