Top 5 Gift Sets

Reinvented classic treats with handpicked sea salts and exotic spices by wife-husband team in Brooklyn. The Whole Shebang—3 boxes of cookies and 3 boxes of brownies—is the perfect hostess gift no matter where you're going. . . or even when you're not going anywhere.
2) Olive Oil Gift Box - Set of 2

3) 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.
4) Beginner's Safety Razor Gift Set
The Rookie Razor cuts clean and close to the skin. And it’s a great induction into better, less wasteful way of shaving. The double-edged blade won’t tug or pull on hair, so you get smooth shave minus the ingrowns and irritation. The buffer between the blade’s edge and your skin gives extra safety, too. The gift set comes with everything you could possibly need to groom, including extra blades, shaving creams, and alum matches (in case you get a nick).
