Corporate Chocolate Gifts in the UAE: A Guide for Eid Al Etihad and Year-End

From Eid Al Etihad on 2 December to the last client meetings before New Year, the end of the year is when UAE companies say thank you. Chocolate works because everyone can share it, it suits every culture in the office, and a well-made box looks as good on a reception desk as it does in a majlis.

Start with who is receiving it

Most corporate gift lists split into three groups: the team, clients and partners, and a short list of VIPs. Each group suits a different kind of gift.

Teams and event guests: Mini Giveaway Boxes

Our Mini Giveaway Box holds six hand-crafted bonbons for AED 48. Choose black, pink or white boxes with black, gold, pink or white ribbons to match your brand colours or event theme. They work as desk drops, conference favours and place settings.

Clients and partners: Pyramids and the Acrylic Bar Box

A Small Pyramid (AED 394) stacks two Makaw boxes into a gift that is ready to hand over. The Medium Pyramid (AED 827) adds a third box, covering bonbons, biscuits and confectionery. For something more modern, the Acrylic Bar Box (AED 695) shows ten of our bars in clear acrylic.

VIP clients and leadership: Signature Pyramid and acrylic trays

The Signature Pyramid (AED 1,517) and Collection Pyramid (AED 1,400) stack four boxes from Small to Maxi. Our acrylic trays, Harmony, Symphony, Diamonds and Pearl Top, carry 3 to 3.5kg of bonbons and confectionery arranged by hand, from AED 1,840. They are made for a boardroom, a majlis or a reception where every visitor will see them.

Gifts for the whole office

For a shared table, the Maxi boxes go furthest: Maxi Discovery (126 bonbons, AED 690), Maxi Coastal (151 pieces of confectionery and biscuits, AED 649) and Maxi Florentines (108 individually wrapped pieces, AED 639). Individually wrapped Florentines are the easiest choice for hospitality, where guests pick up one piece at a time.

Delivery across the UAE

We deliver to all seven Emirates, seven days a week, between 8am and 10pm, with our own delivery team rather than a courier. Chocolate is delicate in UAE heat, and handling it ourselves is how it arrives in perfect condition. Fees by area are listed in our shipping policy. Orders can also be collected from our boutiques at Al Seef Village Mall in Abu Dhabi, and Gate Avenue DIFC and Souk Madinat Badr in Dubai.

Planning a larger order

For many boxes, several delivery addresses or a fixed delivery date, message us on WhatsApp at +971 50 815 4699 or email makawuae@outlook.com with your quantities, colours and dates. The earlier you tell us, the easier it is to plan around the National Day and year-end rush.
