10 Unique Stocking Stuffers for the Foodie in Your Life—All Under $30

Gifting season is here, and we’ve got limited time left before the shipping and delivery windows close (not to stress you out). You’ve made a list and have checked it twice—and yet!—you’ve forgotten about your favorite foodie. Somehow, your go-to home chef or aspiring Great British baker has slipped through the cracks, leaving you to go back to the gifting drawing board.

While you’d probably love to surprise them with a new cooking gadget or artisan piece of cookware (hello, Le Creuset…), gifts for foodies can be a bit on the pricey side. Good news is, they don’t have to be. If you’re in a pinch for an inexpensive food-inspired present, fear not—below are 13 last-minute, affordable gifts that make gifting for foodies a piece of cake.

10 inexpensive gifts for foodies you can buy last-minute

Acid League, Toasted Thai Coconut Vinaigrette — $8.00

Skip the balsamic and snag this beachy vinaigrette instead. Made by Acid League, this Toasted Thai Coconut dressing blends together the perfect amount of spicy, sweet, and savory, with a tropical twist of course. If your foodie friend doesn’t like coconut, there’s also pink peppercorn yuzu, strawberry rose, and manjo jalapeno cilantro flavorings to choose from.

Zulay Kitchen, Silicone Utensil Rest with Drip Pad — $8.00

Originally $15, now $8

Next time your favorite home chef whips up their favorite dish, they can skip the spills and drips and cook as clean as they possibly can. This nifty silicone utensil test holds spatulas, wooden spoons, whisks, and more, neatly keeping them off your countertops until you’re finished cooking. When you’re done, just pop it in the dishwasher for easy cleanup.

Kosterina, Organic Everyday Extra Virgin Olive Oil — $20.00

Olive oil is underrated—any good cook knows that decadent EVOO is liquid gold. This batch by Kosterina is made with 100 percent organic Koroneiki olives grown in Peloponese, meaning it’s the good stuff. The flavor is slightly fruity but mild enough for everyday use, making it a functional gift your foodie is sure to love. The brand just dropped a lip balm and face oil too, so if there’s a beauty buff on your list, Kosterina has you covered.

Blk & Bold, Hibiscus Citrus Loose Leaf Herbal Tea — $12.00

Come winter, you can’t go wrong with a hot cup of tea. This loose leaf blend from Blk & Bold tastes great hot or cold (though when the temps drop, we recommend steaming it up.) Expect flavors of tropical hibiscus, florals, and citrus stirred together for the perfect cup.

Joie Microwave Popcorn Maker — $9.00

You know what else is nice come winter? Movie nights. And you know what movie nights call for? Hot, buttery popcorn. That’s why you should toss this popcorn popping bowl into your stocking. Just throw in some kernels, put it in the microwave, and presto—you (or your friend) will have a delicious snack in seconds.

Uncommon Goods, Kabob Grilling Baskets — $20.00

Come grill season, your pit pro will appreciate this set of kabob baskets. There’s no skewer necessary—instead, just layer veggies, meat, and more, then shut the basket and put on the grill. The rosewood handle allows you to turn for an even cook, so no more burnt fingers or charred skewers come BBQ time.

Clevr, Flower Sprinkles — $11.00

Speaking of baking… toss these flower sprinkles into your pastry chef’s stocking while you’re at it. They’re made from real, edible dried flowers, making them the perfect topping for coffee drinks, cookies, cupcakes—you name it.

Hank Sauce, Witches Brew — $12.00

This hot sauce lives up to its name—it’s wickedly good. It’s made with a ton of spicy goodness, including jalapeno peppers, cilantro, garlic, and more. Your hot sauce-loving friend will love it, and if this isn’t their flavor, the brand has a ton of other options to peruse.

Herb & Lou's, erb & Lou's Infused Cocktail Cubes — $22.00

Get a jump start on the NYE planning with these convenient cocktail cubes. Each “cube” is actually a pre-packaged portion of mixer, perfectly blended to compliment whatever drink you’re mixing up. All you have to do is add liquor (or seltzer and juice for mocktails.) Otherwise, sit back and sip, no bartending school necessary.

Zip Top Reusable Snack Bag (Set of 2) — $25.00

Lastly, eco-friendly foodies will love these reusable silicone baggies that are perfect for stashing leftovers, snacks, and more. Unlike traditional plastic bags, these are designed to be used over and over again, nixing waste while making food storage cute. They’re dishwasher-safe, too, making them that much more convenient.
