Got a few people on your list who absolutely love good food? Then I’ve got you covered with this list of the best gifts for foodies. Whether they love cooking, entertaining or just plain eating, there’s something here for them.
I think there’s a little bit of a foodie in all of us, right? I mean, who doesn’t love great food? Not all of us might enjoy preparing it, but we’ll all eat it, right? haha!
This list of gift ideas is geared toward all the foodies on your holiday gift list – including the cooks, the bakers, the hosts and yes, those who just love damn good food.
And while I don’t proclaim to be a fantastic cook myself (I leave that to my mother-in-law), some of these items in this gift guide are ones I own myself and have been complete game changers in my own kitchen.

Christmas Gifts for Foodies
For the Cooks and Bakers on Your List
Walter White Let’s Cook Apron
If you’ve never watched Breaking Bad, this apron might not be that funny to you. If you have watched it, you probably just grinned. Every great cook deserves to have a great apron, right? Find this one here.
Goat, Vegetables and Bird Towel
Great cooks should also be outfitted with fantastic hand towels for their kitchen, no? I love these fun towels and all their colorful details. You can also opt for a sheep instead of a goat. Find both here.
Marble Pasty Slab
This is so much more than a pastry slab, folks. I have one of these and couldn’t live without it. Yes, it is a great pastry slab and perfect for rolling out doughs, but it also creates a countertop anyplace you need one. I have it on top of a buffet in my kitchen and it serves as a coffee bar there. It’s also a great serving board as well. Find this marble slab here.
Cuisinart 12 Piece Knife Set
Not only will these quickly prove their worth in the kitchen, but they will also add a colorful punch for those cooks on your list who love color. This knife set also comes with covers for each knife. At less than $25 right now, this is a heck of a deal – buy one as a gift and for yourself! Find the set here.
Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven
This isn’t your average toaster oven. It can also bake, broil and fry with its built-in air fryer. Perfect for those on your list who love experimenting with new cooking techniques! More details on this little gem here.
Cuisinart Dutch Oven
My mother-in-law bought me this dutch oven as a gift one Christmas and I use it for all sorts of things including soups, fried chicken and more. The best price I’ve found for this one is here.
Goldtouch Nonstick Quarter Sheets
Another gift from Mama here that I can’t live without now! These goldtouch nonstick quarter sheets are perfect for roasting vegetables, cooking biscuits, and anything else that requires a sheet pan.
Goldtouch Essentials Bakeware Set
If baking is their jam, get them the gold touch bakeware set which includes all the essential cookware for baking up all those sweet treats!
KitchenAid Artisan Shaded Palm 5-Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer
The kitchen appliance that packs a serious punch in both the beauty and versatility department. You’ll only find this Shaded Palm hue at Crate and Barrel. There isn’t much this mixer can’t do and it does it all while looking pretty. If the foodie guy or gal on your list doesn’t already have one of these, then go ahead and make their year with this one. I’m willing to bet you’ll even reap a few benefits from gifting one of these – possibly in the form of cookies. Don’t think it can’t do more though – we use ours for everything from sausage balls to meringue. The mixer comes with a five-quart mixing bowl complete with handle, a flat beater, wire whip, spiral dough hook and a pouring shield.
For Serving Up All That Yummy Food…
No Such Thing as Too Much Butter Spreader
If you’ve got a hostess who has a good sense of humor, go for this butter spreader – there is no such thing as too much butter after all, right?
Cheese Markers
These cheese markers are made from vintage silverware and I think they are just beautiful. They are sold individually, so you can buy as little or as many as you like.
Qing Canape Plate Set
These beauties are on my own holiday wish list. These beautifully detailed canapé plates make a perfect gift for that host on your list who can appreciate color and pattern as well. Find the set here.
Tiffany Tulips Pitcher
If dragons might be too much for them, opt for this gorgeous Tiffany tulips pitcher. Honestly, I love it just as much as the plate set. How gorgeous would this be to use at a spring party?
Mousetrap Cheese Set
The most humorous cheese board you’ve ever seen! The metal “trap” portion is also a cheese slicer! At less than $25, this is great budget friendly gift for those hostesses on your list!
Chambray Napkin Set
Many of you may know that I love a great cloth dinner napkin. This chambray set could work with so many styles and color schemes. You’ll get bonus points for adding a monogram to them!
Fun Foodies Gifts
Sushi Ornament
Have a sushi lover on your holiday list? For those ones that just can’t get enough of it, this sushi ornament makes a super fun gift to give. It’s also less than $10!
Cheese T-Shirt
And for those who can’t get enough cheese of every kind in their lives, there’s this fun t-shirt. You can also choose from different color options with this one.
Gifts for Food Lovers
Carnivore Club
Have a meat lover on your list? Gift them a monthly subscription to the Carnivore Club. Choose from a snacking option, classy carnivore or an exotic jerky bouquet.
Global BBQ Sauce Collection
If grilling and BBQ is their thing, go for the global BBQ sauce collection – a set of six BBQ sauces from all over the world.
Gourmet Popcorn Seasonings
For those who love movie nights at home, they’ll enjoy creating their own popcorn creations with this seasoning set.
Handcrafted Spice Blends
If seasoning things up in the kitchen is their thing, choose four different handcrafted spices for them.
Vanilla Marshmallows with Salted Caramel / Nut and Dark Chocolate Toffee
For the sweet tooths on your list, either one of these would be a truly sweet treat to gift. I’m not a big marshmallow person, but these salted caramel topped ones look divine. I am a huge toffee lover and I would love nothing more than to sit myself down on the sofa with a bowl of this stuff.
