Looking for sustainable, delicious edible gifts you can share with your friends and family for Christmas? This collection of homemade edible gifts will get you inspired to share love from your kitchen.
One of my favorite holiday gifts to give to my friends and family are consumable. These are gifts that everyone loves, because they can be enjoyed as a snack, treat, or at the breakfast or dinner table. There’s no questioning about whether your loved one will appreciate or use that sweater or mug (will it end up in the back of the closet?). Edible gifts are the gifts that keep on giving, because they will be used and appreciated. In our world of over-consumerism and marketing hype, it’s easy to buy into the thought that we need to spend a lot of money on gifts to please our cherished ones, even though chances are they may end up forgotten at the back of the closet or cupboard. But the best gifts can come straight from the heart—or kitchen, really (the same thing, no?). Whether it’s a handmade cookie mix, cocoa mix, or trail mix, homemade food gifts are cherished. Plus, it’s fun and creative to package them up in charming reusable containers, such as Weck or Mason jars with a cloth ribbon or rope tie.
That’s why I’m so excited to share this collection of 35 Plant-Based Edible Gifts, which will provide you with tons of inspiration this holiday season for edible gifts, like baked goods, gingerbread treats, candy, nuts, cocoa mixes, syrups, jams, seasoning mixes, and beyond! Let me know which gifts you like the best!
Eat and Live Goodness,
Sharon
