Discover how to pair Kiss the Hippo's Soho Hoodie and Toffee Bear with coffee subscriptions or beans for thoughtful, unique coffee lover gifts.
Quick answer
Pair the Soho Hoodie with a coffee subscription and include the Toffee Bear as a bonus for a cozy, practical gift that shows you know their love for specialty coffee.
Why merchandise makes a better coffee gift than another bag of beans
Coffee lovers often have a stash of beans, but they rarely have branded gear that feels personal and lasting. A hoodie or a plush bear turns a consumable gift into a keepsake. The trick is to combine the merch with a coffee element so the gift still celebrates their passion.
How to assemble the perfect coffee + merch gift
- Choose the coffee component: Select a Kiss the Hippo coffee subscription (like the 1KG Donna Blend) or a single bag of their favourite origin. The coffee provides the core experience. Make sure the recipient doesn't already have that coffee in their cupboard.
- Add the Soho Hoodie as the wearable anchor: Pick the correct size from the unisex fit range. The hoodie becomes the 'big reveal' item that they can wear while brewing or lounging. Check the size chart – organic cotton fleece can shrink slightly on first wash.
- Include the Toffee Bear as a surprise bonus: Tuck the 19cm bear inside the hoodie pocket or nestle it on top of the coffee bag. It adds a 'thoughtful extra' without inflating the budget. If the recipient is an adult who might not want a plush toy, frame it as a desk buddy or a gift for their pet.
Product facts
