"Frenchmen Street’s Ayu Bakehouse is one of the best bakeries to open in New Orleans in the last few years — it has concocted one of the city’s favorite new king cakes, as well as savory croissants, fruit tarts, chocolate babka, and more. The bakery goes all out with gift-giving options around the holidays (including an adorable gingerbread house kit sold in-store), but our pick is for this festive 12-pack of handcrafted marshmallows. Available in classic chocolate, pecan praline, and red velvet flavors, giftees need only pour boiled milk over one hot mallow for the most delicious cup of hot chocolate ever." - Clair Lorell
