The Best Last-Minute Valentine’s Day Gifts for Food-Lovers

The Best Last-Minute Valentine’s Day Gifts for Food-Lovers
Eater Staff

Order them now, and your beloved will be none the wiser that you almost forgot to get them a beautiful copper egg pan or fancy coconut cake

Ah, the Valentine’s Day procrastinator. We know your plight all too well, and have been in your shoes many times over. It happens. But if you’re still on the hunt for a last-minute V-Day present that doesn’t feel last-minute, rest assured that some of the best gifts for food-obsessed folks can be found in the form of delivered-to-your-door coconut cakes or a Prime shipping-expedited jar of cult-fave chile crisp.

Many of the best last-minute, food-related Valentine’s Day gifts even come packaged in gift-ready boxes (see: the red velvet-lined box for the Imarku chef’s knife), and quite a few are designed to help bring the romance of a restaurant to you via flights of oysters, rich chocolate cake, and a steak engraved with the words “I love you.”

Dim the lights, add some beeswax candles to your cart, and let’s make this week (effortlessly) thoughtful and romantic.
