If you can’t stand the heat, get out of my kitchen...but feel free to leave a gift on your way out. If you drill deeper into the best hostess gifts or foray into the world of gifts for foodies, you’ll find yourself perusing giftable kitchen items, which might sound weird at first. No, I don’t suggest you gift your sister-in-law a refrigerator—although I’m sure she’d appreciate a cloud couch dupe if you’re looking to splash out. There are lots of reasonable gadgets and tools (32 to be exact) that make for highly desirable presents. Better yet, they’re all perfectly normal things to gift, even if your recipient isn’t Top Chef-obsessed. Among them, you’ll find delicious-scented candles and chic home decor, along with countertop appliances and space-saving storage. In short, here’s everything you need to stock my dream kitchen. (Friends, family, and everyone else: take note.)

All the culinary essentials made with only the finest quality and housed in the finest wooden vessel...could a gift be any more complete?

For on-the-go matcha or your daily protein shake, Visp is the space-saving, self-contained blender bottle. Dishwasher-safe and outfitted with a whisper quiet whisk, I believe everyone needs one of these bad boys.
Tablet? No, this is your sous chef. With Google Assistant, you can use voice assist to look up recipes, ask questions (what is one-fourth of one-third, anyway? And can I use coconut oil in lieu of eggs?), and access apps (like Spotify) without wiping the cookie dough off your hands.
