Culinary Gifts for Home Chefs & Bakers

Do you have an avid home chef or passionate baker in your life? Help them create the culinary creations of their dreams with one of Abt's great culinary gifts. Whether they've had their eye on a shiny new appliance or their existing setup needs an upgrade, these presents are the perfect blend of fun and practicality. No matter their specialty, our unrivaled selection of culinary gifts has what you're looking for. Perhaps they could use an appliance that makes meals a little easier on busy days—maybe a toaster oven with plenty of functions like broiling or air frying will help them make delicious dishes in a fraction of the time. There are even smart toaster ovens that offer intelligent heating technology for more even toasting. Some models are so advanced that they can do the work of a larger wall oven without the lengthy preheating. They're not the only multi-purpose appliances that make the top spot on our list of culinary gifts, though. If you're looking for something that will truly wow, why not opt for something instantly recognizable like a Vitamix blender? Whether it's soups, smoothies or salsas, these blenders offer various functions that will take your friend's culinary creations to the next level.

On the other hand, maybe you're shopping for a novice home chef. If they don't know where to start, a classic appliance is the perfect way to help them get started. Those who want to get into baking would be delighted with a new stand mixer to help them whip up cookies and cakes made with love, while an air fryer will show them how to make lighter versions of classic comfort foods. Maybe they're not a novice but want to master a new culinary art; why not surprise them with a breadmaker or ice cream maker? An immersion blender is another great idea, particularly if your foodie friend loves making soup. These culinary gifts will open a new world of possibilities in the kitchen.

Helpful Add-Ons

Of course, a thoughtful gift doesn't have to be expensive or flashy. Some of our favorite culinary gifts are those that work with the appliances the recipient already owns. If they enjoy meal prepping, perhaps a food scale would make the process easier. If they spend their summer days parked in front of the grill, a high-quality spatula or a fun piece of grill cookware will help them get even more from their barbecue. Maybe a delicious sauce, spice or seasoning blend is just what they need—they make the perfect gift for the home cook who has everything. They also make it easy to add a spin on a classic dish. Whether your friend is a seasoned grill master or an expert baker, our selection of culinary gifts has something for every foodie.
