Gifts for Teachers in Northwest Arkansas -

Kyya Chocolate

Left: Nibbed English Toffee featuring Cameroon Dark Chocolate

The chocolate makers at Kyya call this type of Nibbed English Toffee “unique, dark, brooding and satisfying.” (Those just became our new favorite words for chocolate.) Kyya also said that this new creation is so good that they’d walk barefoot in the snow during January just to get more of it. That’s why we think this would be a great gift for the hard-working teachers on your holiday gift list. Let’s face it… putting up with our kids for an entire semester could not have been easy. They’ve earned some chocolate toffee! (Also, keep in mind that Kyya has been teacher-friendly for years now. In 2017, more than 3,000 school kids in Northwest Arkansas were able to tour the Kyya factory to see how the magic gets made.)

Right: Kyya Chocolate Bars (assorted flavors)

If you’re having a hard time choosing what to give a teacher on your list, we suggest giving him or her a variety of Kyya chocolate bars so they can sample all the different varieties. It’s still a cost effective gift but it gives the teacher a buffet of the best chocolate in Northwest Arkansas. There’s white chocolate, milk chocolate and some fascinating varieties of dark chocolate, including “Champagne infused Vivid Dark Chocolate, with nutty whisps of coffee and fudge notes.” Most of the chocolate bar varieties at Kyya are only $6, so choose a few favorites!
