We all seem to develop a sweet tooth during the festive season. Giving edible gifts has always been a great idea. Homemade food gifts are much awaited. Family members know how much they love your chocolate bark or your special homemade sauce and they look forward to receiving it.

Christmas candy, caramel sauce, homemade hot cocoa, homemade chocolate truffles, shortbread cookies, all sorts of cookies and candies will become the best homemade holiday gifts.

The pretty packaging is part of the fun of giving edible Christmas gifts. It’s fun to create Christmas food gift baskets.

Ways To Package Food Gifts

Gift bags, use a cellophane bag, a Mason jar is really pretty to use for sauces and the Cherry Cheesecake in my list, pretty reusable containers or you can use a sturdy gift box. Decorate the packaging with colorful ribbon and you can even tie a cookie cutter to the ribbon for the best present.
