Velatis caramels would be fabulous. I think you could order online.

I think you've done enough with the flowers. Sending another gift is getting into weirdsville.

Levains delivers within the area. I was sent a box as a thank you gift.

OP here: I am out of state so not able to deliver or curate myself!

She lives with her partner.

Box of Levains cookies delivered (not shipped, as quality falls off within 24 hours)? Breadfurst sounds great!

Does she live alone or with a partner? would you put together a basket yourself?

My amazing mentor is retiring and I already sent her flowers I’d like to send her a “sweet start of an adventure” type basket this weekend. Something like charcuterie but breads and cookies any restaurants in the DC or NOVA area that do this? She’s fancy and would appreciate lovely presentation.

I was thinking Olivia Macaron or Laduree but seems too boring. Maybe a basket from breadfurst but seems too doughy. I haven’t been in DC for a few years welcome input!
