Updated: Dec 30, 2020


December 2020 is finally here! If you’re like me, then you are also so ready for this year to be over with. I am one of those people who look forward to the holidays as soon as summer is over though, so I am so excited to finally be sharing with you some gift guides for this holiday season. This year (more than ever) we are in need of some good holiday vibes. I hope you enjoy this gift guide of food items you can give as gifts to your friends and family. These items are locally found in the area so to my fellow Calgarians, these are for you.

100% Canadian brand and originated from Calgary. When you purchase a jar of honey, you are supporting local farmers and protecting bees by making responsible changes in the industry. Gift your loved ones with their box sets and bundles, you will be very appreciated.



2. Buttermilk Fine Waffles boxes


Calgary owned business that makes incredible holiday boxes available for shipping across Canada. You can select anything from their wide selection of waffle and pancake mixes to their holiday surprise baskets. The breakfast and coffee lover in your life will thank you.




3. Gift baskets from Italian Centre Shop

This gift is perfect for anyone who loves Italian cookies, coffee, and chocolates. They offer a variety of baskets that will make anyone in your life feel so special. Also, I am drooling over here just from looking at their website because after I write this post, I will definitely be placing several orders. You’ve been warned.




4.) Hickory Farms


You’ve probably seen this in several malls across this city. But this Canadian owned business offers deluxe luxury meats and cheeses perfect for your holiday charcuterie boards, chocolates, and so many more other special treats. You can place an order online or just stop by your local CF shopping centre and look for their stand.




5.) Lina’s Italian Market gift baskets

Customized for any cook who loves to make classic Italian food (just like how your Nonna cooks dinner). Each basket has items for dishes such as pasta, pizzas, lasagna, chocolates, and many more.



It is important now more than ever to support your local business especially this holiday season. So I hope you enjoy some of my highlights, please let us know more local businesses that offer incredible gift baskets. They’re honestly my favourite thing to receive during the holidays, I love some good food. So I am confident that you will enjoy my selection. Let me know what you think!
