HelloFresh recently launched its first-ever occasion-specific Date Night Box in collaboration with Jessica Alba, with the aim of helping partners to connect over a delicious homecooked meal. The Date Night Box is equipped with all of the essentials for creating a cozy night in, including the basics for preparing a three-course dinner for two—beginning with a Tomato Bruschetta with Thai Basil and Balsamic Glaze appetizer, Prosciutto-Wrapped Chicken over Truffled Mushroom Risotto and a Molten Chocolate Mug Cake from Foodstirs.
The curated meal box also shares a favorite recipe from Alba, as well as her best tips for creating a romantic evening at home, plus a gift from her company, Honest Beauty.
Fans of the Date Night Box can look forward to another release from HelloFresh and Jessica Alba later this year in the form of a holiday offering.
