You can never go wrong with chocolates. And come the cozy and chilly season of Christmas, the importance of good hot chocolate is better understood than ever before. Splurge on some fancy hot chocolate kits that are bound to be a gift of warmth and all the happy hormones, or simply share away your own secret hot chocolate recipe with all the required ingredients! But when we say hot chocolate is the gift that everyone will love, it is no exaggeration.

2. Candles

While having a fireplace may not be feasible for most people in many cities, the idea of a fireplace is always awe-inspiring. And so gifting a nicely scented candle that captures the smell of Christmas (from cookies and candied apple to smoky wood ash) is the way to go.

3. Diaries or planners

The past few years have made many of us take planning our lives more seriously. And to spread this message forward or simply help someone who loves stationery, you can invest in a nice-looking diary that will put a smile on their face. Pro Tip - pay attention to the GSM count of the page as much as you do the cover's design if you want them to remember your secret Santa gift!

5. Christmas Cookies

The last gift option is probably the easiest. Every bakery in town is sure to be filled with the cutest-looking Christmas cookies and cakes.
