With the holiday season right around the corner it’s time to start the holiday gift giving bonanza! At Chicago Food Planet we like to focus on unique, local gifts as much as possible. It shows our family, friends, and colleagues how awesome our city of Chicago truly is while also giving them something truly personal as a gift this year. Check out our top 5 holiday gift recommendations:
1. Fudge Pot

Fudge Pot has some of the best chocolates in the city. Their gift packages are great for all chocolate lovers and offer diversity to do fudge, toffee, almond bark, and more!
2. Mindy’s Hot Chocolate
There is no better way to warm up your family, friends, and colleagues than the gift of Mindy’s specialty Hot Cocoa mix from Hot Chocolate. For those with a real sweet tooth add on her cookbook: “Cookie Love: More Than 60 Recipes and Techniques for Turning the Ordinary Into the Extraordinary”.
3. The Spice House
The Spice House is your go-to holiday gift for any chefs in the family or for your friend looking to gain some cooking skills. All of their spices have recommendations and directions on how best to use them.
Our Chicago Food Planet recommendation, go to The Spice House shop in Old Town, bit out a Spice Kit (or build your own), and ask any one of the knowledgeable employees what their favorite recipes are with each spice. You’ll end up coming home with an awesome gift, unique recipes, and a newfound appreciation for fresh spices.
4. Lush
Lush: fresh, handmade cosmetics at it’s finest. If you’re unfamiliar with Lush check out their Instagram and you’ll be sold on a multitude of products they feature. There are speciality cosmetics for almost anything you can think.
Here’s a few of my recommendations for your best holiday gifting:
- All and any of the various colorful bath bombs
- The Dream Cream body lotion
- The Dirty Hair Cream – because Lush has this awesome option for men & woman to use!
- Lastly, but not least, Lush has a plethora of wrapped gift packages to help you narrow down the best options to gift and save you time.
