My family and I love to cook and eat and cool gadgets often make our lives easier. Here are some fun gifts for people who love spending time in the kitchen or around the dining table.
We have certain kitchen essentials and have/had some fun cooking tools for our kids when they were little.
We don’t really care for many unitaskers or any multicookers. I actually enjoy cooking and my counters are already cluttered enough. I want good quality tools that are functional and beautiful that will last a long time.
We love good food and good wine. Dinner each evening is a feast.
Gift Guide for Foodies
Pepper Mill
I love this pepper mill because it’s easy to turn and refill. It gives lovely coarse grinds.
Whipped Cream Dispenser
We love, love, love this whipped cream dispenser, especially during holiday dessert season! I love making my own whipped cream with natural ingredients and flavors.
Kitchen Torch
I never thought I would like, use, or need a torch in the kitchen, but it comes in handy for more than just crème brûlée!
Milk Frother
I have a microwave frother but I also love my electric frother and battery frother. We can use the flavored Silk almond creams or regular whole milk, cream, or half and half.
Dehydrator
It comes in handy to dehydrate foods when we garden and can’t eat everything right away. Also fun to make homemade fruit rollups or gummy snacks from fresh fruit! Loads of uses.
Food Sealer
We like our Food Saver, but we may get this Zwilling system. We like to marinate meats with no spilling. I often separate bulk buys into servings for our deep freezer. I need to remember to label everything!
Wine Opener
There are some fancy and expensive wine openers out there, but this is still my favorite wine opener! The electric ones worry me and my husband loves his waiter’s corkscrew from Laguiole from our last trip to Paris. This is easy to use and doesn’t hurt my hands or break the corks.
Wine aerator
We like aerating our red wines and the more complex white wines either directly into glasses or into a decanter for better and fuller flavor. This wine aerator is simple to use and easy to clean.
Decanter
We love our glass decanters to air our red wines and make pouring without spilling easier. And they’re pretty on the table!
Vacuum bottle sealer
We don’t often have leftover wine or soda, but these vacuum pump sealers work wonders to save it fresh. They can then last up to a week!
Wine Storage
We have a simple wine rack in our basement where the temperature is always cool. I also like this wine cabinet for our dining room. We have two!
Wine Books
Wine and cocktail books are great for learning about how to pair wine with food or discovering what you love!
Also, fun cookbooks are great gifts!
Specialty Glassware
I bought an engraved whisky glass for my husband last year and he loves it!
Fun wine glasses with cute sayings or insulated/unbreakable cups for picnics or backyard entertaining are popular.
Food gifts or subscriptions
I am always excited to receive a bottle of whisky or wine.
Cheese or salami is always welcome!
I love gourmet chocolate with fancy unique ingredients. My favorite is saffron!
One year, my husband game me an olive oil of the month subscription.
We’re excited to see fun food Advent calendars in our local grocery stores – cheese, wine, beer. These make great gifts or fun to try new flavors.
Wine
Firstleaf wine gifts are versatile and they can customize which wines they prefer – sweet or dry, sparkling, white, rosé, or red.
My husband and I gave ourselves a Firstleaf subscription last year. It’s been a fun adventure!
Seafood
KnowSeafood gifts or subscription for the seafood lovers! We live in Dayton, Ohio, and finding good affordable fresh seafood is difficult. We love, love, love the selection and quality at KnowSeafood!
