Below, I’ve shared some of my FAVORITE things as a (self-proclaimed) foodie. From books, to gadgets, appliances and more, your food lover friends will be happy to receive any one of these gifts… I promise! 

Alright, enough chatting! Let’s get onto the gifts…

The Ultimate Gift Guide For Food Lovers

1. Platters and Boards – I’ve been super into making platters lately! Not only are they esthetically pleasing, but they’re fun to learn for anyone who’s a frequent host.
2. Inspiralize Everything – You might be surprised to know that zucchinis aren’t the only thing you can spiralize! You can pretty much spiralize any vegetable to get creative and switch up everyday meals.
3. Magnolia Table – The Magnolia cookbooks are perfect for anyone who loves spending time in the kitchen! They have the best recipes and I have to say, they make for great home decor!
4. 100 Cookies – Whether your friends and family love baking or they just love eating baked goods, this book is the perfect gift. It’s filled with the most delicious recipes and it has so many simple recipes for those who just aren’t the best bakers… like me (;

1. Immersion Blender – For anyone that’s into making creamy soups and sauces, an immersion blender is the way to go! It’s so much easier than using an actual blender and it’s honestly such a fun little kitchen gadget!
2. Vegetable Scissors  – These are a MUST-HAVE kitchen gadget for anyone who enjoys cooking. They’re small and easy to keep on-hand and they making chopping vegetables and herbs super speedy!
3. Juicer – For anyone that’s into health and wellness, this is a great gift! Fresh squeezed juice is one of the most refreshing beverages (in my opinion) and it’s great if you’re trying to increase your nutrient intake. This juicer that I listed is a great deal, but If you’re looking for something even more inexpensive, you could also go for a citrus juicer!
4. Avocado Slicer – Everyone needs an avocado slicer because… avocado toast, of course (and so many other things)!
5. Spiralizer – If you’re looking for a duo gift, this is perfect to pair with the Inspiralize Everything book I listed above! Get ready for some crazy creative new meals from whoever receives this awesome gift.

1. Air Fryer – Air fryers are all the rage lately! You can make anything from vegetables, to meats/seafood and I’ve even seen people cook fruit in there for desserts and oatmeal! I personally love making salmon in the air fryer. It gives it a nice crisp on the outside but still keeps it flakey and moist – so good!
2. Smeg Products – I have the Smeg Electric Kettle and I couldn’t recommend it more! I use it every single day and the retro branding gives such a fun vibe to any kitchen esthetic.
3. Nespresso Machine – This is a must-have for coffee lovers! Making coffee at home has saved me so much money and I have to say, testing out different milks and blends has become a fun little hobby in quarantine!
4. Vitamix – Although a little more on the pricier side, there’s really no going wrong with a Vitamix. You can make literally anything using this blender, including soups, hummus, nut butters, sauces, and more. I’m obsessed with my Vitamix and I guarantee your friends or family would love it too!

1. Herb Garden – If you have any friends or family members that love to cook, an herb garden is such a great gift so they can always have a variety of fresh herbs on-hand!
2. Insulated Wine Bottle Set – If you need a gift for your wine lover friends, this is the way to go! This insulated set is amazing for bringing wine to a picnic, beach or even an outdoor date.
3. Stasher Bags – Stasher bags are great for taking snacks on-the-go or storing leftovers. I recommend these for really anyone and everyone including students, moms, and anyone trying to be more eco-friendly!
4. Glass storage containers – These are perfect for anyone that’s on the home organization train (like myself). Plus, they’re cute and modern so you can also use them as home decor!
5. Salad Bowls – Salads are a go-to meal in my apartment so I love having these salad bowls on hand! Also highly recommend these for anyone who loves hosting dinner parties or get-togethers.
6. Mugs – I love the style of these double lined mugs! They’re modern and classic for a great addition to any kitchen. Get these to go along with the Nespresso I linked above for a combo gift!
7. Serving Boards – If you need another duo gift idea, this serving board is a perfect addition to the Platters and Boards book I shared above!
