Gifts For The Recent Retiree

By Elba Fenwick


Retirement is a huge milestone in a person's life. This person has probably worked since they were 16 and now after 50 or more years, it is time to retire. Celebrating this new chapter in life is essential and as a friend or family member you could send a thoughtful gift or perhaps throw a party in honor of the retiree. Either way, these suggestions should spark some fun ideas.

A gift basket is always a great idea, especially chocolate gift baskets; after all chocolate is always a big hit. These will be loaded with plenty of treats to keep your retiree happy for many days. However, a better idea might be to send a Chocolate Pizza and tub of Peanut Butter Wings from Chocolate Pizza Company. This unique option is even packed and shipped in an actual pizza box, so even the packaging is amazing.

Chocolate Pizza begins with a crust built with handmade English toffee and either melted milk or dark chocolate. There are many topping options to consider or you can opt for a pizza with a simple artistic drizzle of white chocolate. The Peanut Butter Wings are made from peanut butter and crushed potato chips drenched in milk or dark chocolate. If you want to send a bit of everything, Chocolate Pizza Company has chocolate gift baskets with wings, slices of pizza, chocolate cookies, gourmet s'mores and much more.

Often retirees are looking forward to pursuing their hobbies so any gift that encourages this will be a good option. For instance a fisherman would probably love fishing gear, and a golfer would enjoy golfing gadgets, expensive golf balls or a great new golf hat or shirt. If they are looking forward to reading or cooking, get a gift card for a bookstore so they can stock up on cooking manuals and the latest novels.

If co-workers or family are planning a get-together, have the guests stay within a theme. The favorite hobby might be the theme or perhaps you will want to buy some quirky retirement gifts. There are great t-shirts designed especially for retirees as well as coffee mugs and flasks, hats and even tote bags. There are also plenty of fun books related to being retired. There are also special gifts suitable for those who have retired from specific professions such as firefighters, career military and teachers.

When it comes to the food, keep it simple with a table filled with items that guests can eat while walking around and talking to other guests. Small sandwiches, pasta salads, appetizers, cheese, fresh fruit and other finger-type foods are all great for a casual party. Set up a fun dessert buffet and fill with gourmet cookies and candy or perhaps some Peanut Butter Wings and slices of Chocolate Pizza.
