1. Emotional Support Water Bottle
It is guaranteed that that foodie in your life already has a water bottle that they carry around like it’s attached to them. That doesn’t mean they don’t need another! There’s something about carrying around a cute cup that makes drinking water easier.
2. Edible Arrangement
Your average person loves to receive flowers. Your average foodie loves to receive an Edible Arrangement. This is a fruit bouquet shaped like flowers with some pieces dipped in chocolate. This is the best idea for when you need to send your gift!
3. Cutting Boards as Healthy Foodie Gifts
There’s two different routes you can go down if you’re looking to purchase one for a foodie friend. You could get a beautiful wooden cutting board or one that is more practical.
You can get cheaper wooden cutting boards or a bit more expensive ones that may be made with a higher quality wood. If you want to make it a bit more personalized, you can get one with your friend’s name engraved on it from Etsy.
Did you know you are supposed to cut your meat and produce on separate cutting boards? Now you do! This pack of plastic cutting boards are skid-free and have little images of what each one should be used for!
4. Air Fryer
Nearly everyone has an airfryer now. Be sure to double-check if the foodie in your life has one before gifting them one. Having one is great but having two is a bit unnecessary. Now that they’re so widely used they have become quite affordable. This one from Amazon is cute and under $60!
5. Fun Foods
There are SO MANY fun foods on the market now. Your foodie LOVES to give them all a taste. I did say these would be healthy foodie gifts, but I mean everything in moderation, right!? The issue? They can get pretty pricey. Grab a couple fun foods for your food ie to taste test!
- Nut Butters
- Use this link or code pieceoflulu to get 10% off Nuts’n’More nut butters. I highly recommend their chocolate chip cookie dough and white chocolate pretzel flavors!
- Protein Powders
- People all have their preferences on what protein powders they like. I would say a peanut butter chocolate one is pretty safe. Use code LAURENK10 at ascentprotein.com for 10% off (and get the peanut butter chocolate whey protein powder!!)
- Chocolates
- Everyone loves chocolate but regular chocolate isn’t special. Go to your nearest health foods store or Kroger and you’ll be amazed at the amount of fun-flavored chocolate bars they have available!
6. Cute Dish Towels and Heating Pads
Every season Target and T.J. Maxx has the most adorable dish towels and heating pads (you know, the things you place hot pans on!). I recommend you go there first, but if you don’t have time to go in-person, Amazon is always a good back-up.
7. Herb Garden Supplies
Most foodies have a goal of growing a garden, or at the least a few herbs. This is an ADORABLE little indoor herb garden set. It comes with 5 packs of herb seeds and everything you need to cultivate a successful herb garden.
8. Utensils
- Reusable Cupcake Holders
- Reusable Straws
- Wooden Spoons
- Mini Whisk
- Butane Torch
- Tongs
- Kitchen Shears
9. Boutique Olive Oil and Spices
Many local boutiques specialize in oils and spices now! You can pop in to one of those OR you can make your own infused oils!
Pick up a cute, small glass bottle from a craft store, place a large piece of rosemary (or another herb) in the container, and fill with a high quality olive oil. You can even make it a bit cuter my tying some twine or ribbon around it! It’s such a thoughtful and usable gift!
10. Local Coffee
In Yelp type in your foodies address then type in coffee in the search bar. Get your foodie a gift certificate or a bag of coffee beans from one!
11. Wholesaler Membership or Gift Card
The bill racks up quick at wholesale stores. Get your foodie a Costco, Bj’s, or Sam’s Club membership (or a gift card if they already have one).
12. Bento Box Container
These bento box containers are so cool! All the little compartments. The reusable utensils. I’m obsessed. I can’t find the box I have, but here is a similar one.
13. Plate Set
Plates are a necessary basic, but that doesn’t mean your fooie friend doesn’t need a refresh every now and again.
14. Local Restaurant Gift Certificate
Every foodie has their favorite restaurant(s). By getting them a gift certificate to it, it shows you know them and know what they love!
15. Cute Lunch Bag
Honestly, most lunch bags are a bit ugly. This is a cute option for under $10! Here is another one that is a bit more expensive but it looks as though it could pass for a purse.
16. Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods Gift Card
Trader Joe’s has fun foods that they come out with each season. They also have some foods they offer all year-round, but you can only find them at Trader Joe’s.
Whole Foods also has some food brands that aren’t available elsewhere. By getting your foodie a gift card to either retailer allows them to have fun shopping around for something they’ve never tried!
17. A Fun Mug
Everyone has a ton of mugs. Everyone wants more. You can find affordable cute mugs at Target or you can get a handmade one from Etsy. Both are going to be loved!
18. A Food Thermometer
Food thermometers ensure your foods are safe to eat. Sometimes they can get a bit wonky, which is not good! You can invest in a more expensive high-quality thermometer or get a cheaper version.
19. Baking or Cooking Class
During the panorama many bakeries and restaurants created new aspects of their businesses. That means it’s likely that your favorite local shops have class options. Check out their websites and see!
Another thing that came out of the panorama is virtual classes. You can now take these classes from your own home!
20. An Apron
Aprons are something people don’t have, until they need one. Get your foodie friend a cute stripped one. If you want something a bit more personal, you can get one custom made on Etsy (i’ve done this and it was a hit!).
21. Coffee Syrups
There are so many different coffee syrups available now. You can get the basic vanilla,, hazelnut, and caramel flavors at Target and grocery stores. You can also get some more out-of-the-box flavors at T.J.Maxx. If you want to step it up, check out this vanilla bean syrup.
22. Frother
Along with the coffee syrups, they may also like a frother. This is helpful for making an elevated latte or coffee. If you want to take it to the next level, get them an electric hot and cold frother. I’d want this!
