10 ideal gifts for this Christmas

Christmas has been counting down for days now, and many of you are asking us for ideas to get your gifts right. So, for all those who ask us about bestsellers or something that can be a safe bet, here are 10 great gift ideas, for every budget and profile:

1. Spirelli XL, the original gift for healthy eating

After the success of the Spirelli vegetable slicer, the brand Gefu has released a special version that is ideal for gifting, the Spirelli XL: they have made it slightly larger than the traditional one, and it comes in a beautiful box with a slicer.

It’s a fantastic gift for kitchen enthusiasts who want to prepare green salads, pasta, rice dishes, woks... All seasoned with attractive, healthy spiral-shaped vegetables. The result is spectacular!

2. Chemex coffee maker, for coffee lovers with good taste

Literally a treasure in my kitchen and in the kitchens of everyone who already has one, the Chemex coffee maker is not only a work of art (it is displayed at the MoMA museum in New York), but thanks to its filters it makes one of the best coffees in the world. No residue, clean, perfect. All at a very affordable price.

Plus, there’s no coffee maker easier to use: put in the paper filter, a few spoonfuls of coffee, and boiling water... and it's coffee time!

Important: the charm of the coffee maker is not only its design, but also the filtering achieved by its filters. There’s no complete gift without them.

3. A knife or pocketknife, suitable for adventurers and kitchen enthusiasts

A Pallarès carbon steel knife is an original gift and also very beautiful thanks to its lovely wooden handle. Another option for those who want to carry it with them at all times, a beautiful pocketknife with olive wood handle.

If you can stretch your budget a little more, there is no greater reward than receiving a beautiful knife Set. A very good option is the Wasabi Black Set since Japanese knives are always a win. If the gift is for an expert cook and the budget is generous, then a Miyabi knife will leave the chef speechless. In any case, there are many options when it comes to knives; you can browse them here.

4. cookware set, It's time to refresh your utensils!

Many people look for a useful gift, and Christmas is the perfect excuse to replace kitchen basics. Without a doubt, cookware sets are a very common gift at this time of year: they have a strong presence, they’re beautiful, and they’re something that will be used every day.

One of the favorites is the WMF Diadem Plus, 5-piece, although the WMF Provence is also very popular. There are other very interesting options here.

5. A wok, for those who don’t have time

The wok is one of the most gifted options during Christmas: it’s practical, not everyone has one at home, it encourages you to make lots of quick and healthy recipes and, frankly, it always brings a smile to whoever receives it!

We have the traditional carbon steel ones, like the Ken Hom (available in a very complete and affordable Set), or more sophisticated ones, like the Le Creuset enamelled cast iron. If the wok is for someone practical who wants something easy to use and lightweight, I’d recommend the reinforced non-stick Kuhn Rikon.

6. A casserole, for everything and forever

Whether you're a foodie or not, a casserole is a hugely sought-after gift. A major investment, but one that more than pays for itself: it will last you a lifetime and is useful for everything. Roasts, meats, fish, soups, purees, pasta, rice dishes... And even for baking cakes!

The most traditional one and backed by a lifetime guarantee is the Le Creuset casserole. The only problem is choosing a color... They’re all so beautiful!

7. Pressure cooker, to save time and achieve perfect cooking

A pressure cooker is a significant investment, and Christmas is the perfect occasion to treat yourself. So many people take the opportunity to get this treasure.

One of the pots that makes you fall in love is the Perfect Plus by WMF, being the 6.5L and 3L Set one of the most highly rated. Besides that one, there are so many other good options in the pressure cooker section.

8. Set of 2 frying pans and 1 saucepan by Le Creuset

The Set of frying pans and saucepan from Le Creuset is a wonderful gift option for refreshing the kitchen basics. This Set includes two frying pans and a saucepan, all non-stick and backed by Le Creuset's long warranty.

9. Bread oven, to make incredible bread at home

Making bread at home is a pleasure, but getting expert-baker results isn’t easy. Emile Henry ceramic bread ovens recreate moisture and baking conditions inside that make it possible to achieve a crispy crust and truly delicious bread. It’s the perfect gift to delight the biggest bread lovers.

10. A fondue set, to enjoy yourself in a big way and with no hassle

Another Christmas classic and a must-have for weekends and dinners with friends is the fondue set. It’s a beautiful gift, one that is wrapped up in special moments and will last a lifetime.

There are ceramic and cast iron ones, all equally beautiful and practical, with the cast iron ones being more highly valued because they retain heat better, which keeps the melted cheese warm for longer (although I’m not too sure you’ll have time to let it cool down...).

The Boska Pro fondue Set is a fantastic value-for-money option, although there are so many options to consider that I think you should check them out (here).

NOTE: In the Christmas Shop section you’ll find lots more gift ideas.
