Chocolate Covered Hamantashen: Purim's Perfect Gift 2026

Chocolate covered hamantashen are the ultimate Purim treat. The Sweet Tooth has handcrafted kosher hamantashen in North Miami Beach since 1979—dipping each triangular pastry in rich chocolate to create something far better than the traditional version alone.

What Makes Chocolate Covered Hamantashen Special for Purim?

Chocolate covered hamantashen transform a beloved Jewish pastry into a gourmet experience. The classic hamantasch features a cookie-like dough folded into a triangle around sweet filling—traditionally poppy seed or prune. When we dip these in premium chocolate at our factory, the result combines two textures: crisp pastry meeting smooth chocolate shell.

The triangular shape carries significance. It represents either Haman's three-cornered hat or his ears, depending on which tradition you follow. Adding chocolate doesn't diminish this symbolism. It enhances it. Each bite still honors the Purim story while delivering modern flavor that kids and adults actually get excited about.

Our chocolate covered hamantashen come in both dairy and vegan/parve options. The parve version uses rich dark chocolate that complements the pastry's sweetness without dairy. Families keeping separate dishes during Purim seudah (feast) appreciate having both options available from a single Kosher Miami certified source.

How Do You Send Mishloach Manot Gifts in South Florida?

Mishloach manot requires sending at least two different food items to at least one friend. Chocolate covered hamantashen check both boxes beautifully—they count as one food item, and paired with any of our other treats, you've fulfilled the mitzvah with style.

The Sweet Tooth delivers throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Orders placed before 2 PM EST qualify for same-day delivery within 50 miles of our North Miami Beach factory. For Purim 2026 specifically, expect high demand the week before March 2nd and 3rd.

Building a custom Purim gift basket through our website lets you combine chocolate hamantashen with pretzels, Oreos, or our famous Dubai chocolate. The basket builder walks you through selecting the perfect combination for each recipient on your mishloach manot list.

What Sizes and Prices Are Available for Chocolate Hamantashen?

We offer chocolate dipped hamantashen in three quantities. One dozen costs $36 and works perfectly for a family gift or smaller mishloach manot. Two dozen at $69 serves larger gatherings or lets you split between multiple recipients. Three dozen at $89 makes sense for Purim parties or when you're sending to several families.

Every order includes dairy and parve options. Select your preference at checkout. Both versions use the same hand-dipped technique our chocolatiers have perfected over four decades in Aventura's neighboring community.

The Sweet Tooth provides kosher handmade chocolate. Our chocolate hamantashen feature real tempered chocolate, not compound coating. The difference shows in the snap when you bite through and the glossy finish that photographs beautifully for your mishloach manot presentation.

Why Choose Handmade Over Store-Bought Hamantashen?

Supermarket hamantashen sit in packages for weeks. The dough goes stale. The filling dries out. The chocolate—if they even bother with chocolate—tastes waxy because it's made with vegetable oil instead of cocoa butter.

Our hamantashen get baked fresh and dipped the same week you order. We use real butter in the dairy version, quality shortening in the parve, and premium chocolate throughout. The pastry stays tender. The filling stays moist. The chocolate actually tastes like chocolate.

Families in Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, and throughout Broward County have trusted The Sweet Tooth for Purim treats across three generations. We understand that mishloach manot represents you. Sending a gift that tastes mass-produced sends the wrong message. Sending something clearly handmade tells the recipient you thought about them specifically.

Can You Include Chocolate Hamantashen in Corporate Purim Gifts?

Absolutely. The Sweet Tooth handles corporate Purim gifting for law firms, real estate agencies, and medical practices throughout South Florida. Our corporate gifting portal lets you upload recipient lists, add personalized messages to each package, and schedule deliveries across multiple addresses.

Corporate clients appreciate the kosher certification. When sending to diverse teams or client bases, certified kosher treats ensure everyone can participate. Our Kosher Miami certification means the gift works for observant Jewish recipients while remaining delicious for everyone else.

Bulk pricing applies for orders over certain quantities. Contact our corporate team through the website to discuss your Purim campaign. We've handled single orders with 500+ recipients—logistics that would overwhelm smaller operations.

When Should You Order Purim Treats for 2026?

Purim 2026 begins at sundown Monday, March 2nd and ends Tuesday evening, March 3rd. Most families send mishloach manot on Purim day itself, which means delivery demand peaks that Monday and Tuesday.

Order by February 23rd to guarantee your preferred delivery date. After that cutoff, we may stop taking orders depending on production capacity. Last-minute orders risk missing Purim entirely—and there's nothing sadder than hamantashen arriving the day after the holiday.

In-store pickup remains available throughout the Purim season. Schedule your pickup time through our website and grab your order from our North Miami Beach location at 18435 NE 19th Ave. Parking is easy, and you can browse our full selection of chocolates while you're there.

Do your hamantashen contain nuts or common allergens?

Our facility processes tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, dairy, and soy. While we maintain strict cleaning protocols between batches, we cannot guarantee any product is free from trace allergens. The hamantashen dough contains wheat flour. Dairy versions contain milk chocolate. Notify us of severe allergies when ordering.

• Wheat/Gluten: Present in all hamantashen
• Dairy: Present in dairy version only
• Nuts: Processed in same facility
• Soy: May contain traces

What fillings come inside your chocolate covered hamantashen?

We offer traditional apricot and poppy seed fillings. The chocolate coating adds sweetness, so we use slightly less sugar in the filling compared to non-dipped versions. This balance prevents the overall taste from becoming cloying. Special filling requests may be available for large orders placed three weeks in advance.

• Apricot: Our most popular option, tangy and bright
• Poppy seed: Classic Eastern European tradition
• Mixed box: Half and half available upon request
• Custom fillings: Contact for large orders only
