Valentine's Day gifts

Valentine's gifts for employees and coworkers

The easiest Valentine's gift for employees is a small box of chocolate, the same for everyone, there by Friday, February 12, 2027, since Valentine's Day falls on a Sunday. Order by January 29, 2027, or by January 15 for 100+ or branded gifts.

Order-by dates for Valentine's Day 2027

Valentine's Day is Sunday, February 14, 2027, so plan for the Friday before, February 12. These dates get gifts there by that Friday.

  • Under 100 gifts, no logo

    Order by Fri, Jan 29, ideally by Fri, Jan 22.

  • 100 or more gifts, or anything branded

    Order by Fri, Jan 15, ideally by Fri, Jan 1.

All dates are in 2027. The ideal date for big or branded orders is New Year’s Day, so in practice place those before the December 2026 break. Remote teams use the same dates: each gift ships to its own address.

Valentine's at work: keep it friendly

A shared treat and a thank-you. Nothing that could read as personal.

  • Everyone gets the same.

    One gift for the whole team, so nobody reads anything into it.

  • Thanks, not love.

    The note says thank you or happy Valentine's Day. The hearts on the box are enough.

  • Managers give to the team.

    A gift from a manager to one report on February 14 reads the wrong way. A team gift doesn't.

  • Nobody has to celebrate.

    A treat on the desk asks nothing of people who don't mark the day.

  • Remote people too.

    Ship to every home on the same dates, so nobody hears about the office chocolate secondhand.

  • Ask about allergies.

    Our gifts are chocolate. Collect allergies with the addresses, and send a card alone where needed.

Valentines for coworkers

Small and shared: a thank-you, not a love note. Three easy picks and a few lines for the card.

Notes for the card

  • Happy Valentine's Day! Thanks for making Mondays easier.
  • To the best desk neighbor on the floor. Happy Valentine's Day!
  • Happy Valentine's Day from the whole team. We like working with you.
  • A small thank you for a big year so far. Happy Valentine's Day.
  • Thanks for always having my back on deadlines. Happy Valentine's Day!
  • Sweet treats for a sweet team. Happy Valentine's Day.

Corporate Valentine's gifts for the office, home or both

Where the team works decides how the gift travels.

Everyone in the office

A small box on every desk Friday morning, plus a tower in the kitchen for visitors and late arrivals.

Everyone at home

Send one spreadsheet of names and addresses. Each gift ships on its own with your note inside.

Hybrid teams

Ship to every home, so it doesn't matter who is in the office on February 12.

The tax basics. Under IRS Publication 15-B (2026), holiday gifts other than cash with a low fair market value can be a tax-free de minimis benefit, while gift cards never are. General information only: check with your payroll provider.

Want to celebrate together too?

A gift can sit next to a short team event in the same week.

Browse Valentine’s Day team events, or read corporate Valentine’s Day ideas and Valentine’s Day team building. For February 12, 2027, book a hosted game by January 29 and a kit workshop by January 22 (January 8 with guests in Canada or abroad).

Valentine's gift questions

What are good Valentine's gifts for employees?

Chocolate is the classic: a small box for everyone, the same for the whole team, with a short thank-you note. Our Valentine's picks start at $22. For a team that works together in one place, add a tower or large box in the kitchen to share.

When should Valentine's gifts for employees arrive in 2027?

Valentine's Day is Sunday, February 14, 2027, so plan for gifts to arrive by Friday, February 12. Order smaller unbranded gifts by Friday, January 29, 2027, and 100 or more gifts or anything branded by Friday, January 15, 2027. Earlier is better: ideally January 22 and January 1.

How much should you spend on Valentine's gifts for employees?

Under $40 per person is plenty: it's a small, friendly day, not a bonus. $40 to $100 suits a manager's own small team or one gift to share, and $100 to $200 a leadership team or a whole small office.

Is it appropriate to give coworkers Valentine's gifts?

Yes, when it's friendly and shared: a treat for the whole team, or something small for the people you sit with. Skip anything romantic or one-to-one, and a manager should give to the whole team rather than one person.

What should a Valentine's card for coworkers say?

Keep it to a thank you: "Happy Valentine's Day! Thanks for making Mondays easier." or "Happy Valentine's Day from the whole team. We like working with you." Leave out anything about love or looks.

Are Valentine's gifts to employees taxable?

Under IRS Publication 15-B (2026), holiday gifts other than cash with a low fair market value can be a tax-free de minimis benefit, while cash and gift cards never are, whatever the amount. This is general information, not tax advice: check with your payroll provider.

Can you add our logo to Valentine's chocolates?

Branded inserts and other presentation options can be added depending on the gift and order size. Anything branded needs about 4 to 6 weeks, so for February 12, 2027, order by January 15 at the latest.

Can you ship Valentine's gifts to remote employees?

Yes. Send a spreadsheet of names and addresses and each gift ships to its own home or office, in the US and internationally, with your note inside. Timing and regional charges depend on the destination list.
