Valentine’s Day is firmly a food holiday. New couples can keep it low-stakes with a box of treats. Long-distance relationships call for something like a gourmet dessert delivery that shows up where you can’t.

Most of these picks ship in time for Valentine’s Day as of publication, so if you’re reading this late, you’re still in luck.
