Ultimate Guide to Gifts for the Foodie in Your Life

Believe it or not, we’re just weeks away from the holidays! And if you’re struggling to find gifts for your foodie friends and family members, don’t panic. Here are eight gift ideas perfect for the food lovers in your life.

Set of Spices  

The best part about gifting a variety of spices? You can mix and match your foodie’s favorites and they can be as expensive or inexpensive as you want. Gift an entire spice rack, or if your foodie (probably) already has one, opt for a package of spice samplers. To keep this gift extra exciting, try to look for out-of-the-ordinary spices like Persian blue salt or Indian aromatics. Looking to get the best bang for your buck? Shop from your local Sparkle’s selection of oversized spices!

 

Unique Cheese Boards  

Cheese boards are the perfect gift for foodies that love to host parties or game nights. But, don’t shop just any ordinary cheese board; look for unique ones! This extra long cheese board works great for large parties, when people might usually crowd around a standard small board. Or, make it personal with a custom monogrammed board. Pair this gift with fresh meats and cheeses from your local Sparkle’s deli!

 

Food Subscription Service  

If your friend has a specific food interest, gift them a month or two of subscription boxes. For example, wine lovers might like Vinebox. With Vinebox, each gift box includes one-glass bottles of wine varieties, completely customized by you. For coffee drinkers, opt for Bean Box, home of the hand-picked roasts. And for beer lovers, choose none other than the Beer of the Month Club. MONEY SAVING TIP: If these subscription boxes fall outside of your shopping budget, create your own custom boxes for friends using wines, coffees or beers from your local Sparkle!

 

SodaStream   

The SodaStream turns flat water into carbonated goodness with the push of a button. People can enjoy the water plain, or use it as the base for homemade sodas and flavored cocktails. Complete this gift with juices, fruit and alcohol from your local Sparkle.

 

DIY Hot Sauce Kit

Gift the spice lovers in your life all the tools they need to make their own hot sauce. This Hot Sauce Kit comes complete with spices, bottles and necessary instructions.

 

Instant Pot

It’s one of the latest food gadget crazes, and rightly so. The instant pot can pressure cook, slow cook, warm and sauté food- all within the same tool. If you gift it, make sure to pair it with this instant pot cookbook (or just gift the cookbook if they already have the instant pot).

 

Air Fryer    

Riding the same food gadget craze as the instant pot, the air fryer is another must-have kitchen appliance for 2020. If your foodie friend doesn’t have an air fryer yet, consider gifting one, paired with this air fryer cookbook.
