While you SHOULD shower your mom in love and treats every day of the year, Mother’s Day gifts are the chance to go the extra mile to surprise and delight her. Whether you’re shopping for moms, grandmothers, mothers-to-be, or mother figures, we’re of the opinion that Mother’s Day food gifts are the best ones to give. From small-batch jams and local honey to artisan kitchenware and immune-boosting syrups, these tasty and beautifully crafted items will fill mom’s kitchen with love and practicality. When asked what Mother’s Day food gifts they’re giving Moms on their special day, the Local Palate team’s answers are both thoughtful and delicious. 

Staff Picks for Mother's Day Food Gifts

Sweet just like her, this regional honey sourced from apiaries around the Carolinas and Georgia is thick and delicately floral. It's perfect Moms who take their tea very seriously or love a natural way to add sweetness to their baking projects.  

The Local Palate Print Subscription

Angelique DeClercq, art director

The Local Palate Magazine's New Restaurants Issue

 

"As art director, I’d like to think that when my mom sees each issue of The Local Palate, it’s the same feeling as when she put my drawings on the fridge when I was a kid. So, for one of my Mother’s Day gifts this year, I sent her a year’s subscription."

Spicy Blend Bloody Mary Mix | Seaside Grown

Courtney Ormon, sales and marketing specialist

The crowning moment of Mother's Day is a big, elegant brunch. Give Mom the day off—early—and set her up with a spicy bloody mary in hand. Seaside Grown makes their mix with a blend of produce sourced from around the Lowcountry for farm-fresh flavor.

Mini Gift Sampler | Regina’s Farm Kitchen

Regina's Farm Kitchen Mini Sampler Artisan Jams as a Mother's Day Food Gift

 

Can't decide between Strawberry Blueberry Jalapeño, Blueberry Peach, Peach Vanilla Bean, or Peach Habanero jam because Mom deserves to have it all? Well, she can with the gift sampler of four artisan jams from Georgia-based Regina's Farm Kitchen. Try them served with biscuits, cheese boards, or over ice cream.

Peach Sun Tea | Oliver Pluff & Co.

"Whenever I go home, my mom always has a pitcher of fresh tea sitting on the kitchen counter. Even if she’s the only person who drinks it, it’s the unofficial household elixir. I know she’s going to love the fruity Peach Sun Tea, which is meant to be served over ice."
