At GG!, we believe it's as much fun to give a foodie gift as to receive one. Foodie gifts are joyful, full of color and flavor, creativity, invention and imagination...and they hold the promise of wonderful meals to be savored and shared with family and friends.
Here are a few of the gifts we've added to our holiday lists this year!
La Tourangelle Roasted Walnut Oil
Flora Springs Holiday Helper Red Wine
Nuance Wine Finer Aerator
Everyone knows some of the best gifts are hand-made with love. Last, but not least, from the Good Gracious! kitchen, we have some sweet and savory ideas for you.
Our hearty bacon jam is perfect with crostini and aged white cheddar with crystal salt. And it looks fabulous packaged in a classic white jam pot.

Himalayan Pink Rock Salt and Custom Grater
From the foothills of the Himalayas, this salt
gets its pink speckled color from the natural richness derived from iron
and other minerals. Natural and pure, it is unrefined with no
additives. Packaged with a custom grater to grate fresh at the table. From Sur La Table La Tourangelle Roasted Walnut Oil
Add a little something special to your winter dishes, salads, baked goods and vegetable sautes with the rich, roasted flavor of La Tourangelle walnut oil. This French favorite is now handcrafted in California...and it's good for you, too! From Sur La Table
A
"must have" wine to get you through the "must dos" of the holidays.
Whenever you start to feel stressed, just relax and pour yourself a
glass of this Bordeaux blend with juicy strawberry, rhubarb and white
pepper aroma and bright flavors of raspberry, blueberry, baking spices,
clove and coffee. Mmm...and we adore the label art custom-designed by
artist Wes Freed. Send an email to theroom@florasprings.com to purchase.
Nuance Wine Finer Aerator
Four
functions, one amazing invention. Serving wine gets a whole lot simpler with
the Nuance Wine Finer Aerator. Danish designers combine an aerator, filter,
non-spill pourer, and stopper into one do-it-all instrument the size of a
fountain pen. From Wine Enthusiast

their slogan, they've been "handcrafting smiles" ever since. They have many more mouthwatering confections - fudge, chocolate covered pecan toffee,
old-fashioned favorites like divinity, honeycomb and much more - made
from scratch daily right in front of you. If you're in LA, get on down to

GG! Shortbread
Delightfully chewy and buttery, we like to use our nutty shortbread as our special calling card all year long. It's perfect with a cup of tea or a glass of egg nog!
Christine Holiday Cookie
Our Florentine-style holiday Christine cookie is crispy with just a hint of chewiness and comes from my dear friend, Christine. Her original cookie features dark chocolate and walnut pieces, but for this festive variation, we've added the colors and tastes of the holidays with white chocolate, cranberries and peppermint candy. Enjoy!
Wishing you all a FABULOUS holiday filled with Food, Fun and Love...Cheers!
