63 Hostess Gifts to Bring to Your Next Soirée

Chocolate-dipped fruits count as a healthy dessert...right? Regardless, this decadent gift box tastes just as good as it looks. Plus, it was a part of Oprah’s Favorite Things, so you know it has to be good.

Sure, cheese is great. But cheese on a patchwork agate platter is even better.

There’s simply something so charming about a quirky piece of décor like this classic Gluggle Jug, which actually makes a glugging sound when you use it! Your giftee can use it as a pitcher for water, a vase, or a piece of art. The possibilities are endless. (And if the host is a true fashion lover, might we suggest a glass bag vase?)

This set will make their dining table feel like a cozy Italian trattoria, in the best way.

These cookies are so good, they have an entire members-only club that gets to order ahead of the waitlist. The Core Collection is a relevant dessert all year long, and even better when warm.

Hedley & Bennet makes the best aprons in the game (professional grade chef-approved). This collab is the epitome of fashion and function when it comes to cooking.

Pretty much everyone could use a few extra Zzzs, which is where this best-selling pillow spray comes in. Just a few spritzes of the lavender and chamomile scent will help your giftee unwind and drift off to sleep in no time.

For the person who doesn’t travel with the latest jewelry trends stuffed into Ziplock bags, this elegant case will keep everything organized.

Help your hosts wind down in the most luxurious way with some of the best scented candles on the market, like this one. The inspiration behind this handcrafted votive is absinthe, a fresh, aromatic, and woodsy scent designed to reduce fatigue in those who smell it.

Picky eaters can be hard to shop for (i.e. fancy cheese spreads and caviar may be out of the question), but we guarantee practically no one will turn their nose up at Levain’s fluffy, cult-loved cookies available in a handful of classic flavors.

File under: things that look like other things.

Oven mitts are one of those items you probably wouldn’t buy for yourself, especially if it’s a fancy pair like this one. Embrace their inner chef with the most elegant style around.

For starters, this might be the sweetest olive oil combo we’ve ever seen. There’s one EVOO for cooking (sizzle) and one for topping (drizzle). The squeeze bottles make it so fun and easy to use and serve, you’ll probably want to snag a set for yourself while you’re at it. After all, extra virgin olive oil is a kitchen staple you can’t get enough of.

There’s something lovely and charming about a stylish cake stand. It doubles as a functional centerpiece during dessert and will be any hostess’ dream unboxing.

Whether she’s dealing with the stress of recently moving into a new pad or could simply use some extra R&R on the regular, Maud’s tub kit will surely be appreciated. It comes with dead sea salts infused with bright notes of pink pepper, lemon, and cedarwood to help relax muscles and invigorate the senses, as well as coconut milk powder that will turn her soak into an ultra-hydrating and skin-softening oasis.

Airdropping a photo album is never as good as sharing a hard copy—that’s a fact. And in case your giftee wants to capture some fabulous selfies with the crew, this Polaroid camera has a reflective mirror and self-timer feature.

Add their initials to this gift for a personalized touch.

Nothing will make their place feel more homey than decorating the walls with a customized portrait of their favorite furry friend.

A pre-made negroni from one of New York City’s best restaurants? Sì grazie.

You probably recognize the Jennifer Fisher name from our favorite accessories roundups (the designer is known for making the best gold hoops in the game). Her kitchen account blew up over the pandemic and now, she makes the best salts, too. Give your fashionable foodie host this gift set and you won’t regret it.
