**Your all-occasion guide to homemade food gifts that look as fabulous as they taste—from a food stylist and best-selling author of the Boards cookbook!

Includes 150+ recipes, hundreds of packaging ideas, and inside tips for making beautiful food gift baskets for housewarmings, birthdays, holidays, and more.**

There’s no more meaningful way to connect with others than to give a personalized food basket or homemade gift! Elle Simone Scott—food stylist, ATK cast member, and author of the best-selling Boards cookbook—expands the boundaries of what food gifts are (endlessly customizable!) and when they can be given (literally, anytime!).

• Gifts for every occasion: Celebrate weddings, new babies, holidays, and more with gorgeous food gift baskets! Or give an unforgettably unique housewarming gift.

• From simple to spectacular: Give a bottle of Fruits of the Forest Liqueur—or up the ante with a complete cocktail party food basket packed with homemade goodies!

• Spin one item many ways: Make a big batch of granola for gifting, or divide the recipe into thirds and flavor them different ways.

• Big-batch gifts: Find crowd-pleasing gift ideas for school and work events, or holiday gatherings!

• Playful DIY meal kits: For people who like to cook, there’s DIY Pancake Mix, Turkish Bride Soup in a Jar, or Mushroom Risotto in a Jar.

• Helping-hand gifts: Comfort someone with a fully cooked meal that’s ready to be popped into the freezer or oven.

You’ll also learn Elle’s favorite ideas for keeping food gifts fresh and packaging items cost-effectively yet creatively using edible garnishes, thrifted tableware, canning jars, and more. You’ll never again resort to an expensive, impersonal store-bought food gift basket!
