Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for Pleasure Islanders


Looking for a way to express your tender feelings for that special someone in your life? Pleasure Island has a wide assortment of boutiques, restaurants, and fun activities to make your Valentine's Day extra sweet. Here are a few of our suggestions:

A Gift Basket from The Veggie Wagon

The Veggie Wagon in Carolina Beach has way more than just delicious, fresh produce. Did you know they can put together a beautiful assortment of wine, chocolate, cake and soaps to delight the senses and make your sweetie swoon? Their Valentine's Day gift baskets are artfully arranged to include some of their best wines, as well as locally-made items like delicious Cape Fear Rum cakes, Wilmington-based Three Little Bird soaps and Black Mountain chocolate from Winston-Salem, NC. To add a finishing touch to one of the larger basket options, they'll include a lovely candle to set the mood for your romantic evening.


An Assortment of Hand Made Fudge from The Fudgeboat

You might be thinking, wait a minute - isn't The Fudgeboat closed until spring? Well yes, they are. BUT - did you know you can order their drool-inducing goodies online, year round? Better place your order quick if you want your sweets in time for V-Day! They've got several amazing flavors to choose from. From Peanut Butter (made with creamy Jif peanut butter) to Rocky Road to Red Velvet and more, you're sure to find something that will put a smile on your sweetheart's face. And by the way, they don't just do fudge; try the chocolate covered pretzels for a little bit of sweet and savory, or the chocolate dipped strawberries are always a Valentine's Day favorite!


A Gift Box from Island Roast Coffee

If you're looking for something a little less sugary and a little more bold, wake up your darling's senses with some freshly ground coffee from Island Roast Coffee in Carolina Beach. They have two different gift boxes - one that includes 3 of your hand-picked coffees to give to that special coffee geek in your life, and one that includes the "most popular coffee maker in the world," the French Press, plus one hand-selected bag of coffee. They offer a wide assortment of coffees here so picking out the ones you want will be half the fun! From Island Time Breakfast Blend to Organic Espresso to Mocha Java, and more, you'll want to come back to try them all. And for coffee lovers who also enjoy a little sweetness, they've got you covered with Milk Chocolate, French Vanilla, Hazelnut, Salted Caramel, Southern Pecan and Chocolate Coconut flavors.


A Gift Certificate to Jeanne's Jewels & Fashions

If your special someone loves to shop, why not let them pick out their own Valentine's Day gift at Jeanne's Jewels & Fashions in Carolina Beach? This lovely shop has fine jewelry, on-trend beach apparel, sumptuous bath and body products and more. And did you know they also offer a selection of gifts for kids? If you want to give your little one a Valentine gift, check out their adorable girls' jewelry, coloring books, educational games and toys - and most are at prices drastically reduced from retail!
