The holidays are right around the corner (yay!) but that means the last-minute scramble to get gifts for the hardest ones on your list has begun. Food lovers can be the hardest to shop for, because as much as they have an easy passion to buy for, they most likely already own the newest and coolest gadgets or appliances on the market. But have no fear! Here are 10 great (and unique) gifts to buy the foodies in your life this holiday season.

1. A gift card to a CSA

I can’t live without my bi-weekly organic box that’s filled with fresh and local produce. Many CSA farms offer gift certificates this time of year so the food lover in your life can get a taste of seasonal produce, even during these colder months.

Available at Plan B Organic Farms | $30-$200

2. Milk Bottle Measuring Cups

Available at Anthropologie | $24

These super cute measuring cups from Anthropologie are a sure to please any foodie. Not only are they stackable, they’re dishwasher safe too! It’s a gift that will last for years to come (and if you’re lucky, it might encourage your recipient to get baking as a thank you!)

3. Marble Salt Box

Available at West Elm | $29

Speaking of salt, every foodie knows how important it is to keep it dry so it always stays smooth and clump-free. This stunning marble salt box from West Elm not only does the trick with a sleek swivel cover, it also makes for a beautiful addition to any kitchen counter.

4. Davids Tea Holiday Collection

The holiday collection box from Davids Tea is filled with festive flavours, perfect for those who love to enjoy a cuppa. It comes beautifully packaged with teas, infusions, filters and a perfect spoon, what could be better on a chilly winters day?

This veggie box kit from Food52 is a super functional way to grow micro greens in a small space. Its compact size makes it suitable for any windowsill and will bring fresh, bright flavours all year round.

Dillon’s Distillery put together the perfect set for any G&T fan. Filled with their own gin, artisan tonic syrup, a jigger and pear bitters, it’s packaged perfectly in a rustic wooden box.
