The fat of the land, Christmas edition
Food gifts provide a shared experience. Food naturally brings people together, creating moments that linger past the last bite.
The only rules we have if you’re giving food gifts? Consider the recipient’s preferences or any dietary needs and restrictions; add a personal touch (a handwritten note goes a long way); package it thoughtfully in pretty wrappers, perhaps in reusable containers; and lastly, like anything in life, quality over quantity.

Lusso x Sonja Bordier Butter Wedding Cake
The most memorable gifts aren’t always the biggest or most expensive; sometimes they come in intimate slices of a limited-edition dessert.
