Nobody wants to give a gift that wastes away, never to be used, hidden in storage, donated, or regifted. Sometimes, the best gifts aren’t things that sit on a shelf or hang in a closet, but something you can use. Or better yet, consume. Katie, a self-proclaimed foodie and a gift-giving champion, has a penchant for giving edible delights for birthdays, family gatherings, and beyond. “Food always seems to be appreciated by the recipients,” she says. “I do try to focus on giving mostly healthy things, but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring!” Read on for the grub worth gifting, hand-picked (and tasted) by Katie herself and our amazing staff.
Vermont Maple Syrup — “I love maple syrup and often use it as a sugar substitute,” Katie explains. “Nothing compares to real maple syrup from Vermont. There are so many to choose from, but my latest favorite is from a small brand called J.J. Hapgood, in Peru, Vermont, which has been around since 1827.” Runamok, another Vermont maple syrup brand, just released this liquid gold concoction [Snow Globe Sparkle Syrup] for the holidays, and it’s a gorgeous, festive option to gift anyone in your life.
