With gourmet cheeses from all over the world, every month is sure to be delightfully different.

The Sugar Cube
For your monthly dose of those hard-to-find favourites, sign up for the Sugar Cube’s Candy Club. Choose your favourite gourmet gummy, or mix it up each month with a random selection. Some candies are exclusive to the club, and you’ll have access to new releases before anyone else. Regardless, sugar will end up on your front step one way or another. Sounds like a sweet deal to us.
Membership Price: Prices vary based on sweet tooth severity

Cookie Occasion
Although Cookie Occasion doesn’t technically have a subscription service, it does have a cookie-of-the-month and it does deliver. So we suggest starting your own tradition of having freshly baked gourmet cookies delivered to your door on a monthly (or weekly) basis. In the past, cookies of the month have included flavours like pumpkin pecan, chai dark chocolate and lemon sugar.
Membership Price: Prices vary depending on quantity and delivery needs

Jelly Modern Doughnuts
Instead of going through the drive-thru, let the Jelly Modern Doughnuts deliverer drive up to your home or office and bring you the freshest, most delicious sweet round treats in the city. The Doughnuts for a Year service allows you to have you favourite doughnuts sent right to your door once a month for a year.

While you’re at it, consider joining Peasant’s social club – memberships give you exclusive deals and access to a members-only website.
