Gifts For Moms Who Love Food

Gifts For Moms Who Love Food

We’ve got the perfect gifts for those moms who love food, (so…for every mom).  Think we left something out?  Let us know in the comments!

TEA FOR TWO – Looking for an elegant alternative to the lovely but tired Mother’s Day Brunch?  Tiny Terra Ferma is putting on a mother’s day tea in their backyard with scones, clotted cream and lemon curd. As if that isn’t exquisite enough, they’ll also be selling take-away tea gardens (Mint, lavender and chamomile), along with a selection of tomatoes, veggies, and herbs.  Take mom out to tea, and let her choose a few plants to take home!  Their Manayunk location is also central to many delicious post-tea desserts spots.

IN THE KITCHEN – Sweet Elizabeth’s Cakes has adorable aprons in their shop to help mom feel fashionable and beautiful while she’s whipping up a batch of your favorite cookies – not to mention that their cupcakes and increasingly popular, melt-in-your-mouth salted caramels are also available.  Or stop by Meadowsweet Mercantile – they’re now stocking Bolle cutting boards, which are reclaimed from 400 year old pine and have been finished and crafted impeccably, sure to help glam up mom’s kitchen experience.  (Meadowsweet Vintage is also the only place on the East Coast that you’ll find bars of Woodblock Chocolate, small batch gourmet chocolate from Portland.  Just sayin’.)

THE TASTE EXPERIENCE – You’re telling us that your foodie mom wouldn’t also love a magical combination of tastes, fun, and time with her friends?  Give her a Chew Philly Food Tours Gift Certificate, and solidify your place as her favorite child.  Pick up a Gift Certificate here, (currently half off!), or go to http://www.zerve.com/chewphilly/manayunk and take mom as a surprise! She’ll love spending time with you in such a delicious way.  The code SPRING15 will get you $15 off each ticket, on any date available now through June.

A RELAXING EVENING – What better gift for mom than a night off from cooking?  With homemade comfort foods from Angelo & Josephine’s Gourmet Market like ziti, ravioli, and meatballs, mom will fully appreciate being able to kick back and relax while being treated to dinner.  Call (215) 508-9511 to learn more.
