Gifts That College Students Will Love

By Elba Fenwick


Certainly going off to college is an exciting time for students, but that doesn't mean that they don't suffer from some homesickness from time to time. To bring a little cheer to their busy college life, it's nice to send a care package now and then. Consider the following gift suggestions that are ideal for university students.

If there is one common complaint universal to all those living on a college campus, it would be that the food is not exactly gourmet cuisine. Treating your favorite student to something delicious will definitely be highly welcome, and a great gift to consider is gourmet chocolate pizza from The Chocolate Pizza Company. The pizza crust is not cocoa-dusted pizza dough, but a mix of real, gourmet milk chocolate or dark chocolate mixed with rich English toffee. From there, pizza toppings such as nuts, marshmallows or M&Ms are added, and then the whole confection receives a quick splash of white chocolate before being cleverly packaged in a genuine pizza box.

The Chocolate Pizza Company also has created a special treat just for college students. The College Survival Kit is a box packed with delicious treats. The box include a mini dark chocolate pizza, a slice of milk chocolate pizza, chocolate-covered Oreo cookies, a chocolate and caramel drumstick and the perfect chocolate pizza accompaniment, Peanut Butter Wings. These wings are formed by mixing potato chips and peanut butter and then coating this sweet and salty mixture in rich chocolate.

Small appliances, such as a compact microwave, an electric kettle or a coffee maker, make great gifts for the dorm room. Send a kettle along with an assortment of instant hot beverages, cereals and soups. You can also purchase a small refrigerator for the dormitory, but some colleges restrict the size of appliances, so be sure you know what is allowed.

One gift idea that is both thoughtful and helpful would be a gift basket filled with laundry items. The basket itself could be foldable laundry hamper that can be used to tote clothes back and forth from the laundry facility. Fill the basket with detergent, fabric softener, laundry instructions and a bag of quarters to use for the wash. This is a great going-away gift for your student.

If your student needs a laptop or tablet, that certainly is a great going-away gift, but if those supplies are not needed, then consider getting them a cool bag to carry the computer, books and supplies. An alarm clock is another idea, but it's a good idea to get the type that also acts as a charger and speaker for their mobile phone or MP3 player. Headphones, the fancy noise-cancelling type, are another electronic item college students will appreciate.
