Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide for Foodies includes more than 46 items arranged by price. Choose unique, elegant, personalized gift items for your loved ones!

This week there will be no recipe (unless you are subscribed to my email list, then you'll get one by email and it will rock your world, believe me!), but instead I decided to share with you some of my favorite kitchen things that also happen to be great gifts for those who are into cooking (or eating). And who isn't, right? I arranged them by price, which might make it easy for you. I also included various offers and discounts to make sure you get the best offer!
Since all the malls are overcrowded long before Christmas and I'm heavily pregnant, this year I started to appreciate online shopping. Traditional gift shopping is exhausting these days and it takes so much time!
Online shopping is not only more convenient, but also often cheaper, since online shops don't need to rent expensive retail outlets and hire the staff. They work on a larger scale that helps them get profits even though they sell each product cheaper than the traditional shop.
Besides, you don't need to go anywhere, just sit at home in your cozy PJ's with a cup of hot tea or coffee (or mulled wine?) and enjoy. I can only see benefits in online shopping, with the most important one being: YOU SAVE MONEY.
If you are subscribed to Amazon Prime, you'll get your gifts shipped FOR FREE within 48 hours! For some goods and locations you can even get free same-day delivery. If you aren't subscribed yet, they have a free 30-day trial (you can unsubscribe afterwards, otherwise it costs 8$ a month).
Last year I wrote a post about 15+ Homemade Christmas Food Gift Ideas, which I encourage you to check as well. I selected the best homemade Christmas food gift ideas for your loved ones: Cookies, condiments, jams, macarons, potpourri, pickles, snacks. Homemade gifts are great but if you have no time, I totally understand and I got you covered.
Below I share some of my favorite kitchen things that make for great holiday gifts.

What seasoning to use with a certain dish wouldn't be a question any more! This book has all the answers I've even needed in the field of flavor pairings.

This book will turn the foodie in your family into a world-class sommelier, able to pair any cuisine with a compatible choice!
