Send a box of cakes. Burnt caramel-filled chocolates decorated with cakes, that is.

For years, San Francisco chocolatier Michael Recchiuti has featured the work of local artists on his acclaimed chocolate-covered burnt caramels (the caramel has a smokier flavor than conventional gourmet caramels).

This special edition of caramels is even guilt-free: For each box sold, $2 is donated to Creativity Explored, a nonprofit visual arts center where artists with developmental disabilities create, exhibit and sell their art. How can you not want to help out?

The gift box of caramels—eight pieces, 3.5 ounces—is $21.00. Buy the chocolates online at Recchiuti.com. If you miss the special edition period, the burnt caramel chocolates without the art are available year-round (they’re one of Recchiuti’s most popular confections).
