2025 Gluten Free Holiday Gift Guide

✨ Celiac-Safe Foodie Treats From Small Businesses ✨

As someone who’s been diagnosed with celiac disease for almost 30 years, I know how magical it feels to receive a gift that’s both delicious and gluten free. This holiday season, I’ve rounded up my favorite small-business, celiac-safe, foodie-forward gifts — each one perfect for a different type of gluten-free person in your life. From cookies for every palate to edible works of chocolate art, every pick supports passionate makers who understand gluten-free living and most have a connection to celiac.

🍫 For the Chocolate Art Collector

LaRose – Chocolate Bon Bons & Gourmet Chocolate Confections

Price: holiday bundle boxes range $15-$95
Discount: check bundles for discounted prices on website

🏆 TOP CHOCOLATE CONFECTION AWARD — These chocolates are so good, I had to recognize them as my new fave!

These handmade bonbons are edible holiday-themed works of art, and I’m so excited to share with you this delicious discovery of LaRose Chocolates, my new favorite chocolates. Each chocolate I tried was better than the last. They are so delicious and it’s so fun to be able to experience holiday classic flavors like gingerbread, fruitcake, bourbon caramel pecan, and chestnut eggnog in bonbon format. They even have gourmet holiday flavored Mallomars, which are truly incredible - I don’t know if I could pick a favorite between the lemon meringue, dulce de leche, and raspberry dark chocolate.

Chocolates are always the best gift for anyone - friend, family, the person who has everything. Celiac-safe (made in a gluten free facility), and ingredients can include nuts, eggs, or dairy. Sarah began LaRose Chocolates after her mom was diagnosed with celiac and struggled to find delicious and creative chocolates like bonbons, mallomars, and truffles.

🦄 For the Whimsical Treat Lover

Butter + Sugar Forever – Playful Cookie Box

Price: box of 10 cookies for $29
Discount: orders over $50 ship free on website

🏆 TOP CREATIVE COOKIE AWARD - These flavors are fun and different and bring me back to childhood, new fave!

When I tasted the first bite, I thought - I think I just found my new favorite cookie - the Unicorn cookie… then I was wrong, my new favorite cookie is the Mega Cookies. It’s a chocolate chip & toffee blend and every bite is perfect blend of flavors, crispy outside and chewy inside. Perfect for kids (and kids at heart).

Their gift boxes include a message and the deluxe cookie gift boxes are great for the nostalgic cookie lover who loves something a little different. Maya created butter + sugar after her son was diagnosed with celiac 15+ years ago and loves planning and creating delicious gluten free treats. Some cookies contain milk, egg, soy, nuts, and certified GF Bob’s Red Mill oats.

🎀 For the French Pastry Lover

Macarooz – Gluten-Free Macarons & Mac Pops

Price: boxes start at $46
Discount: THANKS20 for 20% off until December 17 on website

🏆 LONGEST RUNNING TREAT AWARD - These treats have been one of my go-to gifts for GF & non-GF friends since my first gift guide 5 years ago!

Macarooz has been one of my favorites since my first gift guide five years ago and since then, they’ve always been one of my go-to foodie gifts. Macarons remind me of France and wandering the streets of Paris, but Macarooz has taken it up a level with their unique flavors and fun MacPops, all naturally gluten free as authentic French macarons are (using almond flour).

The flavor combinations are creative and nostalgic, and all 100% gluten free. Some of my favorite flavors (although I do love every flavor - except peppermint iykyk) are lemon cake, fruity cereal, strawberry cheesecake, and (of course) pistachio. They do contain dairy, soy, and tree nuts (almond flour is primary ingredient in macarons).

🏠 For the Holiday Baker

Lilly Bean Pastries – GF Gingerbread House Baking Kit

Price: $30 for baking set on website
Discount: 20% off if you join the newsletter

🏆 TOP HOLIDAY ACTIVITY AWARD - These sets from Lilly Bean are such a fun activity for all bakers, no matter what age!

For the baker or for your little baker in training, this gluten free (& vegan) gingerbread house kit is a fun activity and perfect gift with everything you need (just add butter & water). I worked on this with my toddler and we had so much fun! We spaced it out over a few days to have time to mix all the ingredients, let the cookies bake and rest, and then decorated the house (which of course became a train station… #momlife).

The cookies were so delicious when we ate them too, crispy, perfect flavor and texture. This is such a fun gift that gets the whole family involved in participating and is one that is inclusive so everyone can bake, decorate, and eat!

🎁 For the Gluten-Free Gourmet

The fruit box arrives filled with very ripe fruit - so be ready to eat them all right away. We didn’t eat everything fast enough, so be prepared to eat lots of fruit for a few days!

🌺 For the Wildflower Lover
