With bread delivery service Wildgrain, you can gift a box of baked-from-frozen loaves, pastries, pasta, biscuits, and more. Because everything arrives frozen, you don't have to worry about anything going bad, so it's perfect no matter the size of their household. Former executive lifestyle director Lisa was shocked when she tried it out, starting with a sourdough loaf. "The crust had crisped up nicely, and the inside was fluffy and pillowy and chewy. Still warm, this bread tasted like something you’d get in a bread basket at a restaurant," she said. You can also create custom boxes for those are are gluten-free or plant-based.

Tea drinkers who love to try new flavors but don't want to commit to a whole box would love Sips by, a tea subscription box that lets recipients try four new teas a month (four bags each) from premium brands around the world.
