So, from holiday cookie tins to festive chocolate assortments, here are 9 Christmas sweets that will make your loved one merrier with every bite.
Vegan Christmas treats that ship
1 Maya’s Cookies
Pre-2020, this Black- and woman-owned cookie bakery survived off online orders and local pop-ups. While owner Maya Madsen transformed her business into a brick-and-mortar in San Diego, she’s kept the nationwide shipping alive. Amongst the Classic Collection and year-round flavors like Classic Chocolate Chip, S’mores, and Snickerdoodle, cookie enthusiasts can purchase seasonal boxes such as the Candy Cane Land assortment and the Holiday Spice Gift Set. The latter includes four gingerbread cookies and a Frères Branchiaux gingerbread-scented candle. Order by December 19 for the best chance of delivery by Christmas day.

6 Seed+Mill
Tired of cookies? Try halva. This naturally vegan treat made from sesame seeds and sugar will instantly brighten your day. The texture starts flaky but then melts in your mouth to disperse a taste of wonderfully sweet nuttiness. Seed+Mill offers an abundance of flavors from raspberry and coffee to pistachio and cacao nib. For gifting purposes, opt for the Holiday Halva Coffee Cake Baking Kit. It makes for an excellent White Elephant or Secret Santa present the recipient will actually use.
