A peanut gift is one of the few presents almost everyone enjoys. It doesn’t need to fit, it doesn’t go out of style, and it gets shared around the office or the kitchen table. Whether you’re shopping for a coworker, a client list or the whole family, here’s how to choose the right Coleman’s gift for the person you have in mind.
Why Virginia Peanuts Make a Great Gift
Virginia peanuts are the largest of the four main U.S. peanut types, so they’re crunchier and more satisfying than the peanuts most people buy at the grocery store. Ours are cooked to order in Carson, Virginia, and packed in tins that keep them fresh and look good on a desk or a holiday table. Want the details? Read What Makes Virginia Peanuts Different?
For a Coworker, Neighbor or Teacher
Keep it simple with a single tin. A single tin says thank you without overdoing it, and it’s easy to hand off or ship.
- Cocktail peanut tin – the crowd favorite: shelled, cooked and lightly salted.
- Butter toffee peanut tin – made with real butter, perfect for a sweet tooth.
- Old fashioned peanut candy tin – our family’s original recipe.
- Southern style peanut brittle tin – a classic holiday treat.
For Someone Who Likes Variety
When you can’t decide on one flavor, let them try a few. The Trio Gift and 12 oz Trio Gift pair three Coleman’s favorites, and the 3-Way Gift Tin puts three treats in one divided tin so everyone at the table finds something they like. The Sampler Gift is a good introduction to everything we make.
For Family, Clients and the Holidays
Go big with a combo. The Famous Combo Gift and Specialty Combo Gift bring together a generous spread of Coleman’s peanuts and treats — a gift a whole family or office can share. Combos are a popular choice for client gifts because they arrive ready to set out in a break room or on a reception desk.
For the Southern Food Fan
Pair a Virginia country cured ham with a tin of peanuts for a true taste of Virginia. (Check the product page for availability.) Add a bag of raw in-shell peanuts for anyone who likes to make their own boiled peanuts.
For the Snacker Who Has Everything
Some people just want more of what they love. A 5 lb bag of Coleman’s gourmet peanuts or a few bags of salted in-shell peanuts will keep a game-day crowd busy all season.

Tips Before You Order
Plan Around Chocolate Season
Chocolate doesn’t travel well in hot weather, so we ship chocolate items only during the cooler months, roughly mid-October through April. See our FAQ for details. Peanut, candy and brittle gifts ship year-round.
Order a Little Early
Every order is cooked to order, so allow a few extra days around the holidays to make sure your gift arrives on time. If you need delivery by a specific date, call us about faster shipping options.
Buying for a Business?
We offer corporate discounts on larger gift orders. Contact us or call 804-861-2288 to talk about your list.
