Our Favorite Kosher Gift Ideas For 2007

 

Here are some of our favorite kosher gifts. See our kosher gift recommendations from previous years as well.

Prices and product availability are verified at publication but are subject to change.

 

Cream-Nut:
Peanut Butter & Peanut Butter Clusters

 

We’re in love with the line. The peanut butter clusters are delicious milk or dark chocolate filled with smooth and creamy PB and crunchy pieces of peanut. The jars of peanut butter are so natural, they’re simply peanuts and sea salt ground up into an authentic crunchy PB—so fresh-tasting, you’d swear it just came out of your food processor. Certified kosher by Kosher Overseers Associates of America; the candy is kosher (dairy), the peanut butter is pareve.

  • Peanut Butter Clusters
    Milk Or Dark Chocolate
    Three Sizes
    $10.75 To $29.00
  • Peanut Butter
    17-Ounce Jar
    $6.29

Dagoba:
Tasting Squares & Flavored Nibs

 

Give someone who knows good chocolate a daily treat with these single origin cacao tasting squares. All you need is a “taste” with a cup of coffee to be satisfied. Our other favorite is Dagoba’s gourmet cacao nibs, available in a gift box sampler. You’ll never look at a cacao nib the same way again. These are delicious candies as well as dessert garnishes. Certified kosher by KSA and OU. Read our full review.

Divvies:
Kettle Corn

 

This delicious kettle corn is a light gourmet snack that can be shared by the whole family. The bags and scoop provided to fill them create a fun “movie theatre” atmosphere. Striped in Chanukah colors, the box is so handsome, we kept it as room decor. The popcorn is nut-free and free of other known allergens. Certified kosher (pareve) by Vaad Harabonim (Vaad Hakashrus) of Massachusetts. A NIBBLE Top Pick Of The Week—read the full review.

Enstrom’s:
Peppermint Cookie Bark

 

We’re totally in love with this bark. Chocolaty, minty, refreshing—the mint finish lasts forever. First, there’s a layer of thick, semisweet chocolate. Then, a layer of white chocolate, into which are embedded large pieces of chocolate cookies, topped by crushed red and white peppermints. Read our full review of Enstrom’s—their toffee is a NIBBLE Top Pick Of The Week, and this Peppermint Cookie Bark would be too, but it’s only around for the holiday season. Certified kosher by Scroll K, the The Vaad Hakashrus of Denver.

  • Peppermint Cookie Bark
    One Pound
    $18.95

Lucini:
Extra Virgin Tuscan Olive Oil

 

We taste a lot of olive oil every year; Lucini’s, which is estate-picked in Tuscany, stands out for its high quality. An intense fruitiness—profound olive flavors—makes it so delicious, you can drink it–there’s no peppery throat-catching element. We’re so excited by this oil, we went out and bought more (you can drink it from shot glasses, it’s that good). The vinegars are also very high quality, and you can buy them in a gift set. Certified kosher (pareve) by Star-K Far East Office.

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    250 ml, $12.00
    500 ml, $18.00
    750 ml, $27.00
  • Olive & Vinegar Tasting Set

SweetRiot:
Chocolate-Covered Cacao Nibs

SweetRiot covers cacao nibs in dark chocolate, a choice of 50%, 65% and 70% cacao and packs them into reusable, pocket-size tins. A different concept from Dagoba’s nibs, you can tuck these into pocket, purse, gym bag or lunch box for a grab-and-go snack—and at slightly more than $3 each, they’re a well-priced little giftie for those who have graduated from foil-wrapped gelt chocolate. The nibs are crunchy snacks that also make attractive decor for cupcakes, ice cream and other sweets. The products are kosher, GMO-free and gluten-free. Certified kosher (dairy) by Union Israelita De Beneficencia (Medellin, Colombia).

  • Combo Pack, Flavor 50, Flavor 65,
    Flavor 70

    12-Pack, $39.99
