🍬 Father’s Day Made Sweet: Celebrate Dad with a Box of Nostalgia

Father’s Day is just around the corner — the perfect moment to celebrate the dads, grandads, stepdads, and father figures who’ve guided us, cheered us on, and always been there (with or without the dad jokes).

At Heavenly Sweets, we believe in celebrating life’s special moments with sweets that are as meaningful as they are mouth-watering. And this Father’s Day, we’ve got the perfect gift for every kind of sweet-loving dad.

🎩 A Sweet Look Back: The History of Father’s Day

Did you know that Father’s Day has been around for over a century?

It all began in 1910 when Sonora Smart Dodd, inspired by Mother’s Day, wanted to honour her father — a widowed Civil War veteran who raised six children alone. While the celebration caught on slowly, it became an official U.S. holiday in 1972, and since then, many countries, including the UK, have made it part of their annual traditions.

In the UK, we celebrate on the third Sunday of June — a day dedicated to saying, “Thank you, Dad,” with love, laughter, and (if we may suggest) a perfectly packed box of sweets.

🍭 Gift Boxes That Speak from the Heart

At Heavenly Sweets, we’ve spent years curating unique candy boxes that spark joy and nostalgia. Our family-run business was born from a simple love for sweets — and today, we take pride in hand-packing every gift box to order.
