Always a very welcome present at any time of year, food is even more of a great gift come the festive season. It’s obviously perfect for foodies and wine buffs, but if you have a tricky person on your list or someone you don’t feel all that confident buying for, a food or drink gift can often be just the thing! Plus, it’s always a brilliant last-minute gift if you’ve forgotten to buy someone a present, received a spontaneous invite or just want to make an impulsive gesture to a neighbour or host.<\/p>\n

For the one who can’t wait for Christmas<\/strong><\/p>\n

Who says you have to wait until Christmas Day to treat someone? If they adore counting down the festive season, a delicious Advent calendar is the perfect early gift. If you really want to spoil someone special, this Hotel Chocolat Grand Advent Calendar<\/a> is super-luxe, or if they love popcorn, Joe & Seph’s Gourmet Popcorn Advent Calendar<\/a> has an amazing variety of flavours to try, and comes in a vegan option too. Or if they don’t have a sweet tooth, The Snaffling Pig’s Pork Crackling Advent Calendar<\/a> is a super-tasty alternative to the traditional options.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

 <\/p>\n

For the special sweet tooth<\/strong><\/p>\n

Foodies with a sweet tooth are always a pretty easy one, but if you want to make them feel like their present was given extra thought this year, how about giving it a special touch with the presentation? We love Hotel Chocolat’s The Elf’s Christmas Stocking<\/a> – it gives that extra luxe and festive feel to an already brilliant gift.<\/p>\n

These Churchill’s Biscuits<\/a> come in cute minature tins in the shape of baubles and stockings, while this Joe & Seph’s Salted Caramel Popcorn<\/a> is presented in an incredible-looking cracker-style box.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

For your festive hosts<\/strong><\/p>\n

To be the best holiday-gathering guests, it’s always welcome to bring a bottle of wine or some after-dinner chocolates. But how about going one step further and making a more festive offering? This Hotel Chocolat Chocolate Cream Liquer<\/a> would be delicious to enjoy as an after dinner digestif, or to elevate coffees and certain desserts.<\/p>\n

If you’d prefer to give an after dinner taster, why not try something a little more unexpected and bring a cheese course? Godminster’s Four Cheese Signature Gift Box<\/a> includes four delicious cheeses, and looks so inviting that even if there wasn’t a cheese board on the menu, there soon would be! Or for a sweet but festive-themed offering, these amazingly cute Christmas cakes from The Original Cake Company<\/a> are a lovely offering, and perfect for your host to offer with coffee.<\/p>\n

For the old-school snack lover<\/strong><\/p>\n

These Gourmet Pork Crackling Gift Jars from The Snaffling Pig<\/a> are wonderful for the pub-grub enthusiast. Or if they love traditional-style sweet treats, Churchill’s Confectionery Toffee & Fudge in British Souvenir Tins<\/a> would be a great gift, combing delicious fudge and toffee with classic souvenir tins that they can keep.<\/p>\n\"\"\n
