Christmas is the best time of year, with treats galore. Throughout the festive season, I love to bake, indulge in plenty of festive favourites and of course, buying presents for others. With only a few weeks until the big day, I thought I’d share some of the lovely gifts to buy the foodies in your life. You may have seen my beauty gift guide previously, and next up is the weird and wonderful gift guide. If you have someone tricky in your life to buy for, you’ll want to check that out.
Chocolate Sewing Kit

With handmade chocolate which almost looks too good to eat, it’s a great present for those who love sewing, or something a little different. With the kit supplying scissors, a ruler, pencil, 3 spools of thread and some needles. The fact that the items actually look realistic adds to the amazingness of the gift.

Make your own Ramen
Sous Chef provides a number of gifts in order to suit everyone. Featuring different cuisines from around the world, you can cook up a storm in your own kitchen. With Mexican, Indian, Italian, Japanese and more on the menu, you’re spoilt for choice. If you’re looking for an authentic gift from a certain country, why not grab one of the Sous Chef ingredient sets. The Ramen set pictured, is absolutely amazing for creating homemade ramen. Featuring 4 vegetarian/vegan recipes and ready to be made using the ingredients in the packet. To find out more about what Ramen is or how to create it, head on over to Sous Chef.
Bento Box
Also from Sous Chef are adorable Bento Boxes which comes in different colours, sizes and patterns. Whether you’re looking to get a traditional Bento Box or something a bit different, Sous Chef has plenty of choices. It’s multifunctional too and it can be used as a whole food kit! The top of the head is a bowl, the face and lower half of the body is another food container. I really love how it separates all into these different pieces, and it totally took me by surprise at first glance. My favourite Bento Box is the pink Geisha one or the red house one. Both have a super cool feel to them and they’re a great addition to the kit.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this gift guide and if you’re looking for any further recommendations, my other gift guides will be around soon.
