What to Get for a Friend Who Loves Food?
What is a good food gift to give a friend who loves food? The answer: practically anything, but the more custom your culinary gift, the better. Determining your friend’s flavor and food crushes can help you choose the best food gift, from the best foods for travelers and home chefs to foods by country and city to foods by flavor and profile.
Depending on the occasion, you might want to pair palate-pleasing foods that fit the purpose. For dinner parties, wine, charcuterie, and cheese are classic go-to gifts, but there are more creative options like gelato gift boxes, macarons, and pastry trays. For birthday parties, decorated cakes and cupcakes, gift baskets, and drinks are typical treats but more creative options include “Happy Birthday” doughnuts, colorful cake jars, and rainbow colored birthday desserts.
