Elsewhere Holiday Gift Guides: For the Foodie

Best holiday gifts for a foodie Christmas 2020

We’re keeping the good vibes rolling and thinking ahead to the holiday season. This will be the first of many gift guides that cater to the special folks in our lives and their unique interests. Today we’re highlighting some of the best holiday gift ideas for a foodie. Ranging from cookware to kitchen accessories, we have a little something for every culinary enthusiast in our guide & links below.

*Please keep in mind that these are just intended for inspiration. We encourage you to tailor these ideas to your budgets, needs & traditions!

  1. Coffee appliances - everyone likes to prepare their coffee a little differently, but for the classic drip coffee fan, this stunning Smeg Drip Coffee Maker will make a special statement on their kitchen counter. How dreamy is that cream color?

  2. Linen apron - a linen apron is great for making home cooks, novice or professional, feel like they’re getting down to business in the kitchen. We love this pinafore style apron from Portland Apron Company.

  3. Ceramic cups - as you’ll see, we love any and all ceramics over here. These Kaya Ceramic Cups by Justina Blakeney (a Black-woman-owned ceramic brand) are currently waitlisted, but we’re obsessed! We also love these (handmade in Appleton, WI) and these (handmade in Milwaukee).

  4. Food supplements - for the matcha and cocoa drinkers who want a little boost in their beverages, these Superfood Latte Blends by Golde (a thoughtful Black-woman-owned superfood brand) are delicious options.

  5. Cookware - special cookware essentials are great gifts for the foodies who are working on building out their kitchen arsenal. The highly coveted Always Pan by Our Place is a multi-purpose non-stick ceramic pan from a brand that puts ethical practices and responsible materials into their products.

  6. Ceramic dishes - every meal tastes better when it’s set on a beautiful dish - it’s a scientific fact. (Probably.) We love these from Korai Goods and these from Urban Nature Culture Amsterdam.

  7. Cookbooks - as many of us are staying home and preparing meals for our households, we love the idea of a cookbook that encourages healthier options for two. Healthier Together by Liz Moody is a beautiful book with delicious, perfectly proportioned recipes.

  8. Tea towels - we love how tea towels can inject a little bit of personal style into a kitchen. These beautiful Elana Gabrielle towels from Dune Gift & Home (a store in Stoughton, WI with hand-selected treasures) add warmth and function to your space.

  9. Ceramic fruit bowl - offering both form and function, this gorgeous ceramic fruit bowl by Virginia Sin from Form Fine Goods (a curated local shop in Milwaukee, WI) is an exceptional gift that doubles as art.

  10. Restaurant gift cards - local restaurants and businesses need our support now more than ever. Gifting a gift certificate will not only bring joy to the recipient, but also to the local restaurant you helped support. Don’t forget about our list of local restaurants that offer curbside pickup!
