12 Homemade Vegan Food Gifts

Gifting homemade treats is the ultimate thoughtful gift. The festive season is all about showing love, spreading joy, and sharing delicious food and what better way to do that than with homemade vegan food gifts made with thought and care.  There is nothing quite like receiving thoughtfully made homemade truffles or carefully created Christmas spice syrup. You can wrap them up individually or create a vegan hamper to share with your family and friends.

Whether you’re looking to surprise a family member, impress a foodie friend, keep costs down this year or reduce your impact on the planet. Discover the perfect edible gifts that are as kind to the planet as they are to the taste buds!

Gift wrapping

Try not to stress too much over presentation. The receiver of your homemade gift will likely appreciate the thought of the gift alone without fancy wrapping. Homemade gifts also tend to look great without any added extras. Wrapped in a clean tea towel or piled on a plate look pretty amazing as it is! But if you do want to go the extra mile then try some of these tips.

Look for what you already have: Check the back of your tupperware cupboard, pantry or recycling box. I’m talking old jam jars, plain gift boxes or even tin cans with label removed.

Parchment paper: If you can’t find any old jars try some neatly folded parchment paper tied with a bow.

Fabric remnants: Use old fabric remnants to create your own reusable wrapping. If the gift needs something between use some parchment paper and finish tied with twine or ribbon

Ribbons & twine: Adding some ribbon to your gift instantly adds something a bit extra so go to town with your favourite bows!

Tag: Add a small card to your gift with a short description of what you’ve made. You can even add an ingredients list for an extra touch (and helpful for those with any food intolerances).

Festive Vegan Tiffin
A Christmas tiffin requires no baking and is probably one of the easiest sweet treats to make. It works perfectly as a more sustainable gift to save buying someone something new or to take over to a loved one’s house as a sign of your appreciation.

Vegan Biscoff Chocolates
A dream combination of flavours, with just three ingredients. Biscoff and chocolate together is a match made in heaven: the sweet spiced flavour of the biscoff lotus biscuits, paired with the rich taste of dark chocolate. I love making these vegan biscoff chocolates around the festive season as they make the perfect vegan gifts.

chocolate almond crunch
Almond Chocolate crunch
A simple, healthy and nutty chocolate crunch ideal for a special treat. They're just five simple ingredients. I love the idea of making these as gifts at Christmas time especially, because of the addition of cranberries. You can switch these cranberries for any dried fruit, such as dates, raisins or apricots, for any occasion or time of year. The dark chocolate and coconut oil coating mix together with the nuts and fruits for a flavour explosion in the mouth.

Vegan Florentines
Traditional, festive and possibly one of my all-time favourite biscuits. Florentines are my mum’s favourite biscuit too, so she shared this recipe with me to recreate them, but we made them totally vegan. A florentine is a sweet pastry with delicious nuts and fruits, with a layer of wavy-lined dark chocolate at the base. Enjoyed often at Christmas time, you will want to make these over and over again, because they never last very long!
