We’ve teamed up with Nespresso to share the must-have, limited-edition items we're giving as gifts this year—starting with a few special products from Nespresso, like the Limited Edition Nespresso x Pierre Hermé Pack that features the season’s finest flavors.
We've officially reached the time of year when I start panic ordering holiday gifts for everyone I love because, as usual, I got too wrapped up in snagging the best deals on presents...for myself. My secret to making everyone on my list feel extra special (despite my procrastination) is to shower them with limited-edition goodies that trick them into thinking I planned it this way all along. I tend to go for food-themed items because those are what I'd want to receive most, like the plentiful coffee offerings from Nespresso or Scandi-inspired cookware.
Here are the limited-edition items I'm most excited about snagging for friends and family before they sell out.
This limited-edition Nespresso collection features flavors inspired by French patisserie, dreamt up in collaboration with pastry chef Pierre Hermé. With three festive flavors—toasty hazelnut Infiniment Gourmand Saveur Noisette, uniquely tart Infiniment Fruité Saveur Framboise, and rich, black Infiniment Double Espresso—it's got something smooth and satisfying for every coffee lover on your list.
The classic holiday popcorn tin gets a Food52 twist in this collaboration with the folks at BjornQorn. It boasts three flavors of sun-popped (yes, you read that right!) popcorn developed by Amanda Hesser: Classic, Maple, and Chile Crisp. Plus, the popcorn is vegan and gluten-free, so everyone can enjoy a handful or two.
Jazz up your loved one's morning cup of joe with this hand-beaded set of mug charms from food-themed accessory aficionado Susan Alexandra. They're only available for a limited time, so be sure to move fast if someone you know could use a bit of breakfast bling.
Few things pair more perfectly with freshly brewed coffee than a lightly sweet baked good, and these limited-edition biscuits are just the ticket. Co-created with French pastry chef Pierre Hermé, these cuties combine the flavors of Ceylon cinnamon, dried raspberry, and caramelized sugar for a sweet treat that tastes especially delicious with a cup of Nespresso.
If you're searching for a gift for the person who has everything, look no further than this butter warmer. It's perfect for—you guessed it—warming butter, but also for warming maple syrup and all sorts of sauces. Available in limited-edition colors like Moss and Black, you're sure to find the right hue to match any kitchen.
This year's Anthropologie holiday tin candles are extra fitting for the culinarily inclined because they smell like the classic seasonal food and bev. We're talkin' Milk & Cookies (hello, Santa), Hot Buttered Rum, and Mulled Wine.
Whether you're gift recipient likes their coffee hot or cold, this 10-ounce travel mug will keep their drink perfectly steamy (or chilled!) thanks to its double stainless-steel walls and colorful outer shell. This limited-edition color is dishwasher-safe and it's ideal for transporting coffee sips from the Nespresso x Pierre Hermé collection.
