The Best Father's Day Gifts for Dad…

 Come from really knowing him.

---

Father's Day gifts are notoriously hard to get right. Not because dads are complicated - as a dad, I can confirm we're pretty easy to please - but because the default options have been the same for decades. A tie, a grilling accessory, a greeting card with a painfully bad golf pun on it… We appreciate a good pun as much as the next guy, but we think Dad deserves something a little better this year.

Why We Take Father's Day Personally

Christo's Confections is named after my dad, Christopher. He's the one who taught me my

very first recipe when I was barely tall enough to see over the kitchen counter. He has been part of this business since before day one; he shows up to markets, helps brainstorm ideas, is always looking for new leads, and is a major part of why any of this exists.

My dad and me at our very first Christmas market. He insisted on having candy canes in his pocket so he could give them to kids who came by the booth

Here's the thing about my dad: he loves to give. He is always sending little gifts to someone for their birthday, making a meal for a friend or relative, spending time with someone who is lonely, or writing someone a card just because he was thinking of them. He would never come to a school performance or choir concert without some little treat to give you afterwards. And when he gives you a gift, what makes it special is not that it is super expensive or complex; it’s simply that you can tell he was thinking specifically of you.

That's the idea behind everything we make at Christo's. And it's especially the idea behind our Customization Station.

Delicious Father's Day Gifts Built Around Your Dad

Our Customization Station lets you build a gift around the specific, particular, occasionally inexplicable things your dad loves, rather than whatever was left on the shelf at the grocery store the week before Father’s Day.

Build Your Own Caramel Popcorn

Our handcrafted caramel popcorn is already something people stop mid-chew to comment on. Real caramel, cooked low and slow, with that quintessential crunch when you pop a piece (or a handful of pieces) in your mouth.

But the really fun part is the toppings.

Think about your dad for a second. Is he the guy who puts sea salt on everything? The one who gets unreasonably excited about anything with peanuts? A pretzels-and-chocolate person? A "just give me the classic" type who has strong opinions about simplicity?

Whatever the answer is, there's a combination that's made for him. You're choosing the toppings because you know him. That's what makes it a gift rather than just a snack.

Build Your Own Chocolate Bar

Is Dad not a caramel popcorn kind of guy? No worries. Our Customization Station works on chocolate bars too.

You can choose from nearly thirty toppings to create a unique chocolate bar for Dad that is unlike anything you can find anywhere else. Does Dad like almonds in his chocolate? Can do. Cookies? Not a problem. Toffee? Gummy bears? Cayenne pepper? Potato chips? We’ve got you covered.

On top of that, you can even give your Customized Chocolate Bars their own name to make the gift extra special.

So move over, “World’s Best Dad” mug. Make room for the half pound chocolate bar with all of Dad’s favorite things inside and his name on the wrapper.
