Finding the perfect holiday gift for the men in your life can be challenging. Maybe they're not forthcoming with what they'd like. Or they're so into the spirit of giving that they've already bought themselves a few things. (There's nothing wrong with buying yourself a present; in fact, science encourages it.)
So, instead of purchasing that set of monogrammed cufflinks or a new sand wedge, gift him something delicious this year.
Here are nine Christmas gift ideas for him that will add a little sweet or savory to his holiday.
1. Meat and Cheese Sleigh Gift
Just hear those sled gifts jingle-ing.
Ring ting tingle-ing food.
Come on, there's lovely cheddar.
For a sleigh ride together with you!
Outside the snow is falling.
This gift is mouthwatering, "Yoo Hoo".
Come on, there's lovely relish.
For a sleigh ride together with you.
Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap let's eat.
They'll enjoy this treat.
We're riding in a wonderland of two types of meat.
2. Deluxe Holiday David's Gift Tower
All along this festive tower, your prince will keep this gift in view. While other gifts came and went, this has chocolate-covered cherries, too. Outside in the cold distance, your wildcat may growl. Two pounds of pears are included, and the raspberry galettes will make them howl!
3. Deluxe Holiday Mixed Nuts Gift Tin
It's the holidays. So, if you want to get nuts, come on, let's get nuts! This Deluxe Holiday Mixed Nuts Gift Tin offers a delightful spread of five different nuts that hit all the right flavor notes. Dig into honey-roasted cashews, praline pecans, milk chocolate-covered almonds, and more, all packaged up in a reusable tin container.
4. Award-winning Cheeses
You've got the Oscars, the Emmys, the Grammys, the Tonys...and, yes, there are awards for cheese too. This gift features five varieties of fromage that have earned distinction from the American Cheese Society and the World Cheese Awards. Included in the world-class assortment is a blue, porcini, merlot, and two kinds of cheddar. It's the cheesiest gift you can imagine — and we mean that in the best way possible.
5. Winter Goodies Gift Box
Bring some winter cheer to any grinch with this box of, well, winter goodies. This gift box comes with Busseto Milano Italia dry salami, raspberry galettes, and a mouthwatering collection of Moose Munch popcorn, milk chocolate mini mints, and milk chocolate-covered cherries. If that weren't enough, it also comes with Harry & David signature chocolate truffles. At this rate, he won't run out of chocolate until next Christmas.
6. Holiday Cheer Wine Gift
For those who like to imbibe during the holidays (or on any day ending in “Y"), try the Holiday Cheer Wine Gift. Sip a luscious wine (Harry & David™ Ross Holiday Red blend) while snacking on roasted almonds, milk chocolate-covered cherries, and chocolate truffles. Who knew that chocolate and wine pairs so well together? We did.
7. The Ultimate Meat Collection
Brave the cold weather and fire up the grill — or try the new cast iron skillet he bought himself — with the Harry & David ultimate meat collection. Carnivores will rejoice when they unwrap this selection of three savory, USDA Prime wet-aged cuts of beef: a juicy New York strip, filet mignon, and boneless ribeye. This collection of steaks also comes with a peppercorn spice rub so he can season the meat to perfection.
8. Wild Salmon Monthly Subscription
If the fella in your life is a real wild one, perhaps he's just out of school, a real, real cool, and likes to dance like a fool, pop on over to our sister brand Vital Choice and order a subscription to have wild salmon delivered every 30 days! He'll get two to three different types of salmon with each shipment, from king, sockeye, or silver salmon to nova lox, sockeye burgers, or salmon sausage.
9. Santa's Reindeer Dipped Strawberries
Satisfy his sweet tooth with delicious (not to mention adorable) reindeer-looking, chocolate-covered strawberries from Shari's Berries. Covered in premium silky milk chocolate, these delectable treats are decorated to look just like Rudolph, and they come in three sizes. He'll shout with glee, and you'll go down in history as the best gift giver.
