Dad of the Day Giveaway Winner!

Congratulations to Carrie, the winner of our Dad of the Day Giveaway! She has won a $30 gift certificate to give to a special Dad of her choice. Although her answer was chosen randomly, we really liked what she had to say:

My father is no longer with us, so on Father’s Day I like to celebrate all the other awesome Dads in my life! My husband will surely get spoiled with breakfast in bed, lunch, dinner and dessert! He also gets to choose whatever activity we will do as a family for that day!

For those of you just realizing that Father’s Day is this weekend, don’t panic! From my experience, all Dads like a sweet treat and our definitive Father’s Day selection includes delicacies for every taste. From classics like peanut brittle and pecan brownies to more adventurous edibles including salted or chipotle caramels and spiced brittle, we’ve got the perfect sweet something for that special man.

Looking for a larger gift, something he’ll be able to share? A Monthly Club will deliver a bountiful selection of premium cookies, brownies, or fudge each month for as many months as you specify. Every month’s delivery will remind that special father that you’re thinking of him.

Order this week before Wednesday to guarantee on-time delivery. Orders placed later in the week will require faster shipping to arrive on time for Sunday. If you do happen to be a little late ordering, our Gift Certificates are delivered instantly and there’s no shipping fees. Plus, they let him decide exactly what he wants for his dessert.

Confection Affection: Vegan Toffee and Peanut Brittle

Clients often ask what our most popular product is. We have so many great products for such a wide range of tastes that this question is always hard to answer. However, there are some products that do stand out as worthy of special praise. Crunchy and crispy, sweet and salty, our vegan toffee and peanut brittle are two of our best-selling confections. Whether you prefer almonds or peanuts, classic, chocolate covered or spiced, these treats are sure to win your heart are first bite. With so many varieties to choose from, sold individually or in sets, our vegan toffee and peanut brittle make excellent gifts, and are especially tolerant of being shipped in the summer heat. Our classic toffee, as well as our classic and spiced peanut brittle, won’t melt or get stale even when shipped over weekends.
As you can probably tell, we’re having quite a love affair with these scrumptious confections and we bet, when you try them, you will too!

Last Chance to Order for Father’s Day!

What are your special Father’s Day plans? We’re planning a friends and family barbecue for Sunday afternoon with veggies and mushrooms on the grill, vegan potato salad and lemonade. For more great vegan menu ideas, check out my Veganize It! column from VegNews Magazine.

If your Father’s Day plans are still undecided, it’s not too late to order some delicious treats to let your Dad know you’re thinking of him. As a gift for a Dad far away, I recommend our Classic and Spiced Peanut Brittles, or our amazing Cherry Almond Bark. For something to share as a family, try our Pecan Brownies, or a Gourmet Vegan Sampler. Order today for delivery before the weekend.

Peanut Brittle: A Salty-Sweet Treat

When was the last time you enjoyed peanut brittle?  If you’re anything like me, brittle is not usually on your sweet treat wish list.  That’s all about to change though, because Allison’s Gourmet is here to reclaim peanut brittle as the yummiest sweet and salty snack ever invented.  With our animal free ingredients, perfect crispy-crunchy texture and exciting new varieties like spiced and chocolate covered, this brittle will rock your world!

Coming soon…Valentine’s Day!

Although the Holidays seem to be just barely behind us, Valentine’s Day is also just around the corner!  In fact, I find that looking forward to this love-struck holiday and shopping for unique valentine gifts for my honey are great ways to survive these cold, dark, wintry days. The preferred Valentine’s Day gift is chocolate, of course, and we certainly have plenty of that here at Allison’s. We also offer some other unique Valentine gifts like the swoon-inducing combination of Classic Peanut Brittle, Crunchy Almond Toffee and Vanilla Caramels in our Classic Vanilla Lover’s Gift Set, or the simple elegance of premium organic, fair-trade coffee and tea samplers. If these treats sound more like something for you than for your partner, may I remind you that there’s nothing wrong with a little innocent hint-dropping. In fact, tell us which one of our items you’d most like with your candlelit dinner and, at the end of the week, we’ll send one lucky winner an instant gift certificate towards their next order (hint, hint).
