Frequently Asked Questions
What do you bring to a shiva?
Bring ready-to-eat kosher food that requires no effort from the mourners — baked goods, chocolate, dried fruit, and nuts are traditional choices. Mourners are not permitted to prepare their own food early in shiva, so anything that can be set out immediately for the family and visitors is most helpful.
How long do you sit shiva?
Shiva traditionally lasts seven days, beginning immediately after burial. Because the mourning family hosts visitors throughout that week, food gifts that keep well — like a tray of rugelach or handmade chocolates — provide comfort across the entire shiva, not just one visit.
Is chocolate an appropriate sympathy gift for a Jewish family?
Yes. Sympathy baskets with chocolate, baked goods, dried fruit, and nuts are a long-standing and appropriate shiva gesture. Choose parve when the family's kosher practice is unknown, since parve treats can be served at any time in a kosher home. The Sweet Tooth's Sympathy & Shiva Gift Basket is $109.
What is a shiva tray?
A shiva tray is a ready-to-serve platter of comfort foods sent to a mourning family's home. The Sweet Tooth's Shiva Comfort Tray pairs Sonny's famous rugelach with black & white cookies ($94–$104), arriving ready to set out for visitors with no preparation required.
