Effie’s Homemade:
Oatcakes
We weren’t quite sure of what an oatcake meant (a pancake made with oats?). But the minute we tasted these crisp, lightly sweetened biscuits with their delightful nutty flavor, we couldn’t stop eating them. They’re wonderful plain with tea, with jam or cheese or to accompany ice cream. One order includes six bags, so you can give some as gifts and save some for hostess gifts.
- Effie’s Homemade Oatcakes
7.6-Ounces Bag
$6.00
Minimum Order 6-Pack ($36.00)

Hot Lips Specialty Food:
Sweet & Spicy Pepper Jelly
Pepper jelly is one of our favorite treats. We use this sweet and spicy condiment with everything from cheese & crackers to sandwiches to vanilla ice cream. Hot Lips Specialty Foods make a delicious version. A little milder than most pepper jellies, and flecked with red pepper flakes, this jelly is both a palate-pleaser and a beautiful garnish. With its jewel-like color, your recipient will likely pop it open for Christmas. The Raspberry Chipotle Sauce is also very good, and the Hot Salsa, though not a thick style for dipping, makes an excellent sauce for fish and poultry.

Olympic Granola Bars
We’re not exaggerating: These are the best granola bars we’ve ever had. Although they call themselves “gourmet granola bars,” the experience is tantamount to eating a dense nut torte. You can put a scoop of ice cream on top of them! Whether you give just one ample bar or several, the recipient will be very happy. Read our review of Olympic Granola Bars, a NIBBLE Top Pick Of The Week.

Way North Foods:
Gourmet Biscotti
What sets Way North Biscotti apart is that they provide a pleasing crunch while melting into cake-like satisfaction in the mouth. For those who want the traditional, rock-hard biscotti experience, the ends of the loaf, cleverly called “stones,” can also be purchased. Regular or stone, everything that emerges from the Way North Foods ovens is absolutely luscious and distinctively better than most biscotti we’ve tasted. With flavors that include Dried Cherry, Lemon-Dried Blueberry, Orange-Dried Cranberry, Cherry Cordial, Double Dark Chocolate and Maple Walnut—plus Apple Pie, Peppermint Bark and Pumpkin for the holidays—there’s something for everyone on your gift list!
