Recipe Round-Up: Holiday Hostess Gifts

Is your calendar filled with holiday parties and get-togethers? Or are you just scrambling for last-minute gifts and goodies for friends, family, or the office? We love the idea of giving the gift of delicious food. Bundled up with a bow – ingredients, food, and baking can make thoughtful and beautiful gifts for anyone on your list, and are perfect to leave with the hostess with the mostest!

Here is our list of go-to gift ideas this year:

Recipe-In-A-Jar – everything you need for a flavour-packed dish, all packed up into a cute mason jar. Just add dry lentils and a spice or herb mix of your choice, showing off the beautiful, bright layers of lentils and spices. Seal with a ribbon and a tag, and these jars are perfect for stocking or hostess gifts! Here are our go-to flavour combinations to get you started:

Scones – wrap up a beautiful batch of scones in a festive linen dish towel and tie with a ribbon! Here are a few of our seasonal favourites:

Biscotti – display in a glass jar and tie with a bow! These are our top holiday biscotti recipes:

Baking & More – loaves, cookies, chocolate bark, and fruit dips are more great gift ideas – store in jars or clear wrapping and finish with a bow! Here are our favourites:
