Reductionist? Yes. Wrong? Not really.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eObviously, we fall into the first category. Which is why we’ve dunked everything in chocolate, from cookies to candies to nuts. While these treats are delicious pre-chocolate coating, they’re even better after a chocolate swim. There’s more crunch, more richness, more decadence, more delight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s not surprising that this is one of our all-time bestselling gifts. As our web developer Brent says, \"Everything in this box is covered in chocolate: pretzels, hazelnuts, animal crackers, peanut butter cookies.

Which is to say, your particular mother is unique, a woman like no other…and perhaps not so easy to shop for. That’s why we’re here, to help you out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Mother’s Day, get her something that speaks to her spirit. Are we going to recommend that you give her a box full of food and booze? Of course we are. (Your mama didn’t raise no dummy!) But we recognize that your mother is one in three billion seven hundred twenty-one million women on this planet, and as such she deserves a gift that’s just as special and rare. Oh, and don’t forget to include a card.

Spiced watermelon pickles that are both sweet and sour, carrot cake jam that honestly tastes like cake (and it’s glorious), maple syrup flakes that will change the way she thinks about what maple syrup can be, burnt sugar and fennel shortbread for her sophisticated palate and salty crunchy split peas that she’ll be tweeting about in no time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/collections\/the-mothers-day-gift-collection\" title=\"For moms who have kids competing for their love: The Mother Load\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Mother's Day Gifts from Mouth.com\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0100\/5392\/files\/TheMotherLoad_grande.jpg?v=1524237961\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor moms who have kids competing for their love: The Mother Load\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course you love your mother and you want to get her the best gift you can find. But would it be a bad thing if you also wanted to outshine your siblings a little? A bit of familial competition is healthy, especially when that competition takes the form of two kinds of cookies; buttery, salty caramels; crunchy over-the-top-flavored popcorn; an incredible jam flavored with grapefruit, ginger and rosé; handcrafted herbal tea and a jar of summer wildflower honey; lemonade-spiked dried watermelon and a tropical cocktail mixer.

Don’t deny her nature: celebrate it! This gift, which is evidence that indulgent deliciousness can go hand-in-hand with healthy, is just the thing. Packed with not-too-sweet treats, it's got a hand-baked bag of apple-quinoa granola, sun-popped popcorn, dried cranberries and blueberries, organic roasted almonds, zesty dried watermelon, pollen-rich raw wildflower honey sticks, and a totally Mouth-watering cherry-almond granola bar – everything she needs to keep on keepin' on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/products\/lifes-a-beach#variant=46545916690\" title=\"Life's A Beach from Mouth.com\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0100\/5392\/files\/LifesABeach_large.jpg?v=1524238049\" alt=\"Mother's Day Gifts from Mouth.com\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor moms who could use a tropical vacation: Life’s A Beach\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePicture this: mom in a bikini.

While we can’t help you get her to the Caribbean, we can help make her feel like she’s in a tropical paradise. Light the mojito-scented candle (made by Malin+Goetz in Brooklyn, NY), mix up a cocktail (in the set of stemless wine glasses) with the charred grapefruit tonic or the pineapple lime mixer and have her follow the instructions on the hand-embroidered cocktail napkin: “Drink.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/products\/small-batch-super-mom#variant=640257437\" title=\"Small-Batch Super Mom made by Mouth.com\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Mother's Day Gifts from Mouth.com\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0100\/5392\/files\/SmallBatchSuperMom_grande.jpg?v=1524238090\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor moms who are faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/collections\/moms-who-deserve-deliciousness\/products\/small-batch-super-mom#variant=640257437\"\u003eSmall-Batch Super Mom\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeriously, how does the woman do it all? Some days it really does feel like everything could just fall apart if it weren’t for her. So get her a Mother’s Day gift that make her day a little easier…no, not a personal assistant (though that’s a pretty good idea, actually). Give her a gift of goodies fit for every snacking occasion: rich chocolatey cookies, spicy caramel popcorn and crazy delicious sourdough crackers that she can keep in her car or her purse for an on-the-go treat, a lime tonic cocktail mixer that'll make her happy hour even happier and so much more.

All she wants is a little something sweet, just a little bite. Let her have it her way; give her a little something sweet for every meal of the day. For breakfast: hand-baked apple granola and a flakey, fruit-packed toaster tart. For an afternoon pick-her-up: chocolate caramels and handmade hard candies (each one lovingly marked with an XO). To end the day sweetly: raspberry thumbprint cookies and light-as-air hibiscus marshmallows sandwiched between rich shortbread. She might protest, but that’s just her way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/products\/feed-mouth-indie-pendent-woman#variant=32380802194\" title=\"FEED + MOUTH Indie-pendent Woman Mother's Day Gift\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0100\/5392\/files\/FeedMissionMom_large.jpg?v=1524238182\" alt=\"Mother's Day Gifts from Mouth.com\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor moms who are on a mission: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/collections\/moms-who-are-totally-badass-1\/products\/feed-mouth-indie-pendent-woman#variant=32380802194\"\u003eFEED + MOUTH Indie-pendent Woman\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhatever her cause, she shows up. She’s active and engaged and stands up for what she believes in. The woman is a role model, she is on a mission, and she needs all the fuel she can get. This is the gift that’ll keep her powered up with a lightly caffeinated chai tea concentrate; an indie popped tart that's perfect for eating on the go; salt water taffy that tastes like summer; elegant crackers laced with nuts and seeds; fancy-schmancy black truffle popcorn; and a delicate spring coastal honey to sweeten every moment.

There was, right? It’s pretty much impossible to have a bad time when a beautiful cheese board is around.

If you’re throwing a formal cocktail party, make an extravagant one to showcase your fabulous taste. If you’re having a big Sunday dinner with the family, a cheese plate will keep everyone busy snacking until the meal is ready. Outdoor hangs, whether a picnic in the park or a day at the beach, are vastly improved with top notch snacks…like a cheese plate. When you’re snowed in in the winter and it’s too hot to cook in the summer, the cheese plate is your best friend. And if you should find yourself, at the end of a long day, eating dinner over the sink, do yourself a favor and make it a cheese plate instead (you’ll feel so much better). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0100\/5392\/files\/SorellaCollective-CheesePlate_grande.jpg?v=1524074313\" alt=\"cheese plate\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhoto via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sorellacollective\/\" title=\"Sorella Collective on Instagram\"\u003e@sorellacollective\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere’s no exact science to making a great cheese board, but there are guidelines that are worth keeping in mind on your journey to cheese plate heaven\u003c\/span\u003e.
