3) Cookies - Set of 3
“The Cookie” is Salt of the Earth Bakery’s original recipe—rich chocolate chips in buttery batter with flaky Maldon sea salt. Crunchy, briny sea salt from Bali boosts the flavor of plump raisins and oatmeal in The Wild Oat. In the Chocoholic, three kinds of chocolate converge with a dash of Maldon sea salt. Pack of 3 boxes of Salt of the Earth Bakery Cookies.
4) Cold Brew Tea Gift Set
Make your afternoon tea an iced one with a cold brew tea gift set. Cold brewing is a slow and gentle way to infuse tea that creates more intense flavors and aromas. This set has everything you need to brew your own at home, including organic and orthodox loose leaf teas. This means the tea is hand-picked and processed according to traditional practices and it is all sourced from small-scale, non-industrial tea farms. Brewing is easy—just steep the tea overnight in the container, strain, and enjoy.
5) Spice Gallery Gift Set
Take dishes up a flavorful notch with an artisanal spice gift set. Essentials like sea salt and chilli flakes sit alongside out-of-the-ordinary spice blends (ever try lemon peel, sage, and bee pollen?). It’s all directly sourced from growers and farms to ensure purity and freshness, and the blends are unique to Curio Spice Co. A tea towel and handy recipe cards round out this perfectly giftable set.
