Shari's Berries
- Cost: $44.99 per quarterly delivery
Shari's Berries is probably the world's most well-known source of succulent chocolate-covered strawberries. As part of the 1-800-Flowers brand family, they make gift-giving easy, from bouquets to cookies and beyond.
For strawberry lovers
This service offers one dessert club: the Strawberry Gift Club. It consists of 12 dipped strawberries, delivered once per quarter and decorated according to the season: Signature Collection in the summer, Fall, Holiday and Valentine's Day.
Membership Overview:
- Dessert Selection: 12 strawberries decorated for Fall, Holiday, Valentine's Day and Signature Collection
- Duration: 12 months
- Frequency: Quarterly
- Shipping: Free
Not much flexibility
You'll pay $44.99 plus tax for each delivery, and shipping fees are included in the price. There's not much flexibility when it comes to this dessert club, compared with its rivals. You can't change the delivery schedule, and you have to select the full-year club (no options for 1, 2 or 3 gift shipments). The only plus was that we could add an extra gift to our first shipment: during the checkout process, we had the option of including a bouquet of flowers with the delivery, with three arrangements to choose from.
Read the fine print
As we went to leave the Shari's Berries site, we got a pop-up offer of a 15% discount if we entered our email address. In the past, we've found that the fine print on the offer often excludes club subscriptions like this one, so we recommend that you don't get too excited until you're sure that your offer will apply to the dessert club.
Customer friendly
Shari's Berries has a customer-friendly Smile Guarantee. If your gift arrives in anything less than perfect condition, or if your recipient isn't happy for any reason, just drop their customer care team an email and they promise to make it right.
While we love a good chocolate-dipped strawberry as much as the next person, this dessert club is a little skimpy on options when compared with other subscriptions out there. If you absolutely want to send berries for a special occasion, Shari's Berries won't let you down. But, if you're looking for a wider variety of options, both in terms of the kinds of desserts that are received and length of subscription, you won't find it with this company.

Who Offers the Most Delicious Dessert Clubs?
Finding a new, exciting gift year after year for a friend, family member or business contact can be a challenge. A great new idea that has been gaining in popularity the last few years is a dessert club membership.
In a dessert club, delicious desserts are sent monthly, bi-monthly, or quarterly, depending on the flexibility of the club and the customer's preference. Dessert selections are either predetermined by the company, selected by the gift recipient, or can arrive as a complete surprise. For dessert lovers, especially those hard to buy for, receiving a new dessert every few weeks can be a delightful experience.

However, not all dessert clubs are alike and it's important to understand the policies before you sign up. Important aspects of a dessert club membership to be aware of are:
- Flexibility. Will you be able to select the length of dessert club membership and frequency of delivery that fits your budget? Will you be able to select the dessert choices or are they selected by the company?
- Cost. What can you expect to pay for the dessert club that best meets your needs? Can you make monthly payments or do you need to pay a single, flat rate fee?
- Satisfaction Policy. If you aren't happy with the timeliness, quality or taste of the delivered desserts are you able to stop the membership and receive any portion of the cost back?
