Holiday & Special Occasion Gift Guide:

  • Birthdays

    Birthday gifts should be meaningful and specific to the person whom you are getting the gift for.  Does this food-loving birthday celebrant consider himself/herself a carnivore, vegetarian, or vegan?  If so, consider getting a meat or vegetable-related gadget for the kitchen…or something meaty or vegan-y to snack on.  Do you know if he/she loves sweets, or salty foods?  In this case, a sweet package or salty gift box might do the trick.  Other things to consider are the celebrant’s activities (e.g. a canteen would be great for hikers or bikers), style (e.g. eccentric people might like this levitating plate), drinking habits (e.g. whisky drinkers would appreciate this globe-shaped whisky decanter), and other aspects that are part of his/her personal character.

 

  • Anniversaries

    What kind of anniversary is this?  A wedding anniversary, dating anniversary, work anniversary, or an anniversary of some other accomplishment?  Is this your anniversary, or someone you know?  Depending on what type of anniversary this is, the type of gift can be quite different.  Personal anniversaries deserve more romantic type gifts like a picnic set or wine glasses.  Appropriate gifts for business or professional type anniversaries would include a cold brew coffee & tea maker or Turkish tea cups.

 

  • Graduations

    As with anniversaries, there are many different types of graduations.  Kids have graduations at pre-school, kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, junior high, and high school.  Adults graduate from college, masters programs, doctorate programs, vocational programs and more.  The age of the graduate will determine what makes for a good present.  For example, a safe no-spill bowl or corn popper would be better suited for kids while a flask or espresso maker would be better for an adult.

 

  • Bridal Showers

    Bridal shower gifts should obviously keep the bride in mind.  What type of person is she?  Does she prefer to cook or eat out?  Does she have a fancy or simple style.  Does she like to entertain guests or have quiet meals at home?  Is she at the house most of the time or always on-the-go?  Ask yourself these questions and you’ll be able to figure out whether to get her a cooking-related gift, a gift for entertaining guests, a travel-friendly gift, or some other sort of gift that she will greatly appreciate.

 

  • Weddings

    Weddings gifts should definitely be selected with both the bride and the groom in mind.  While the bridal shower gift can primarily be geared towards the bride, the wedding gift should show consideration for the couple.  Something along the lines of a panini press for multiple paninis or an electric smoker with plenty of room would certainly be appreciated.

 

  • Baby Showers

    Food-related baby shower gifts are more for the food-loving parents (cause no one knows for sure if the baby is a food lover when it isn’t born yet).  However, it can still be for the baby like this spill-proof bowl or push popsicle maker.  Or, maybe consider something to help clean the inevitable messes of the growing family like this fun microwave cleaner.

 

  • Christmas / Hanukkah

    Since this is the biggest gift-giving time of the year, pretty much all bets are off and you can get your food loving gift recipient whatever you like…depending on your type of relationship with him/her. If you want to get something more understated, but unique maybe this elegant bottle of Vermont maple syrup will do.  Or maybe you want to give a gift that is modern and sophisticated.  In this case, a set of Swarovski crystal cutlery would be perfect.  Too expensive?  If you want to give a cheap gift that is still meaningful, you might want to consider these cut-resistant gloves to show that you care.

 

 

 

  • Mother’s Day / Father’s Day

    Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are days to show your mom and dad how much they mean to you.  You probably know them pretty well cause they are your parents.  Get them something meaningful, maybe something similar to the birthday gift suggestions above.  Whatever it is, put some thought into it and they’ll be sure to appreciate it.

 

 

  • Labor Day

    This holiday is pretty similar (in terms of forms of celebration) to July 4th.  There will be a lot of barbecues and grilling going on, so whatever you would consider providing for outdoor cooking would be more than acceptable in this situation.

 

  • other holidays

    If you’re looking for a gift to give on a holiday that isn’t already covered here, you should consider what time of year it is.  If it’s during winter (or any cold time of year), think of gifts that would be great for the indoors like this unique syphon coffee maker or a simple mug warmer.  If it’s during the summer (or any warm time of year), consider giving a gift that would be great for enjoying outside like these unbreakable wine glasses or this portable grill & cooler set.

 

 

In any case, feel free to shop around for other food items as often as you wish.  Enjoy!
