Top 5 Foodie Favorites & Gourmet Food Gifts
1) Bread Scooper
An innovative product that scoops out the inside of your favorite bagel or bread. After removing the inside breading, there's more room for the good stuff. The stainless steel blade pairs with an ergonomically designed handle for comfortable, effective use.
2) Nut & Plant-Based Milk Maker
This plant-based and nut milk maker streamlines the DIY milk process and is a one-stop way to retain all the original flavor and nutrients of the ingredients you choose. Two nested containers let you measure, filter, and soak nuts, grains, or seeds in water with no mess. You can even store and pour from the outer container.
3) Peanut Butter Knife - 2 Pack
Get every last bit from the bottom, rim, and sides of the jar—even the big ones—with this peanut butter knife. The extra-long, stainless steel blade has a curved tip that scrapes jars clean. It’s strong enough to stir and scoop peanut butter, natural nut butters, jams, thick oils and more, and it is extra broad to give you an ample serving with every swipe.
4) Classic & Spicy Salt Blend Duo
The salt blend duo set features Sel Magique's classic and spicy blends. All of their products are sustainably produced, hand-harvested, and batch-blended. The naturally high mineral content makes these salts incredibly flavorful in small amounts. Use on vegetables, meats, salads and more.
5) Floral Lotus Tisane & Teapot
Transform the age-old ritual of making tea. These dried tea flowers are actual lotus buds sourced from a monastery on one of China’s holy mountains. Their golden honey aroma evolves into a subtle, more herbal taste and fragrance as you drink. This kit includes a beautiful glass teapot with a wire filter that lets you enjoy the aesthetics, and eight to twelve lotus flower tisanes (each good for up to two infusions).
