Food is such a big part of celebration, Christmas included. So edible gifts will always go down a treat at this time of year, especially for those who class themselves as a foodie. Serve your foodie friend or family member a real treat this Christmas with these gorgeous gifts ideas. Pair with a favourite snack of theirs or a voucher for their favourite eatery and you'll be the Michelin star chef of gift giving.

1. Seasonal suppers book

For those who love to get in the kitchen, this book is a great gift to keep them going all year long with a variety of different seasonal recipes, so they'll never run out of ideas. Whilst you could opt for niche books such as bao buns or chocolate baking, we've chosen this one because it's just a great all-rounder.

2. Emma Bridgewater medium pasta bowl

Ignore the name of these bowls for a moment, because they can also be used as serving bowls. Pop them on the side and fill them with crops of tomatoes from the summer, serve up sides like roast potatoes or veg, or of course just use them for a hearty bowl of pasta. They're versatile bowls and are always beautifully made too.

3. Toasted Crumpet Bees & Honeysuckle Mini Double Sided Chopping Board

Why just have boring wooden or plastic chopping boards? The Toasted Crumpet ones are so beautifully decorated that they'd look good even just as a display item. And did you notice that they're double sided? So it's really 2 in 1 which is handy!

4. The Handy Tablet stand

If you know someone who is always reading recipes online or watching YouTube recipe videos or cooking shows whilst in the kitchen but has to balance their tablet on random things like the fruit bowl, this could be a very useful present for them!

5. Emma Bridgewater Cooking from scratch 1/2 Pint Mug 

Any Emma Bridgewater mug is a special gift. But this one can be for when the chef of the house needs some chill time with a cuppa, this cooking from scratch mug is perfect. A thoughtful nod to their hobby indeed.

Still in need of another course?

Coming right up! These ideas were just a few of our very best, but there's plenty more where that came from, such as loads more cooking books like the Stanley Tucci one. Or you could buy them a new tin and fill it with treats, such as a cracker tin with crackers and cheese. There are even Jellycats to suit food lovers!
