Kroma Super Granola
It seems about time that the brand behind things like OMG Cookie Butter, Superfood Porridge, and Super Ramen (which sold out in an hour after launching this April) would release a really good granola. In true Kroma fashion, their super granola focuses on nutrient-dense superfoods like maca, goji berries, mulberries, nuts, seeds, and Himalayan pink salt.
In Other Words, by Jhumpa Lahiri
For the friend who always greets you with ciao bella—this is a language-learning love story. Written by Pulitzer Prize winner Jhumpa Lahiri, this book catalogues the author’s passionate, life-altering decision to learn Italian by immersing herself in the language and culture. After moving her family to Rome, Lahiri began to read and write solely in her new tongue, building a new voice from scratch. The result is In Altre Parole, or In Other Words, her nonfiction debut, written entirely in Italian and translated into English on the opposite page.
Bialetti Moka Pot
An oldie, but a goodie. This is the most reliable, sturdy stovetop espresso maker out there, with a devoted following that’s only grown since it was first designed in 1933.
Martini Olive Cocktail Napkins, Set of 4
These darling cocktail napkins are a cute and kitschy reminder of one of our favorite flavors. The set of four is perfect for your pal who loves hosting and hates water rings left on coffee tables. Martinis sold separately, but those are always a great idea too.
Il Dolce Far Niente: The Italian Way of Summer
Il Dolce Far Niente, or the sweetness of doing nothing, is effortlessly captured in this mesmerizing photo book cataloging a languorous Italian summer by Lucy Laucht. This is armchair travel at its finest: a kaleidoscope of rainbow beach umbrellas crowd the frame here; couples sunbathe on the rocky shores of the Amalfi there; behind it all, the dazzling blue waters of the Mediterranean, or Tyrrhenian Sea.
Massimo Botura Teaches Modern Italian Cooking
Can’t snag a reservation at Modena’s famous Osteria Francescana? Spring for Chef Massimo Bottura’s MasterClass instead. Here, you’ll learn directly from the Italian restaurateur how to make tagliatelle al ragù, pumpkin risotto, and the famous Emilia burger.
La Dolce Vita 1000-Piece Puzzle
If you’re home for the holidays and wishing you could be traipsing around Cinque Terre instead, distract yourself with this indulgent 1,000-piece puzzle. The result is a frame-worthy, haphazard, and hedonistic feast studded with crumbly parm, luscious figs, and sun-kissed glasses of rosé.
Brami Protein Pasta Variety Pack
This trendy TikTok pasta is viral for a reason: It’s made with Italian wheat and enhanced with lupini beans, which boast 70% more protein, lower carbs, and triple the fiber of regular pasta.
Giusti Aged Balsamic Trio in Wooden Box

Marcato Atlas 150 Pasta Machine
Spring for the Ferrari of pasta machines, a small but mighty workhorse kitted out in cherry red and silver chrome. This iconic Italian kitchen accessory is as durable as it is stylish, and it even comes with a two-year warranty for added peace of mind. Whip up some fresh dough (we love this recipe) and use the manual crank to roll and cut fettuccine, lasagna, and taglioni, choosing from 10 different thickness options.

Breville Oracle Jet
Launched earlier this year, the Oracle Jet is equipped with a built-in Baratza burr grinder, an automatic steam wand that can be programmed for different types of milks, and a touchscreen display whose pixel quality is so clear it feels like you’re using an iPhone. It’s been a game changer for BA commerce writer Alaina Chou, who was pouring silky oat milk cappuccinos within minutes of unboxing the machine despite never having used an espresso maker in her life.
Great Jones All Aboard & 6" Chef’s Knife
If you know someone who’s just getting into cooking (or who hasn’t upgraded their basics in a while) the new chef’s knife and cutting board bundle from Great Jones is an ideal gift.

It's packaged in a sleek wooden box that really doesn't require wrapping, and comes with a must-have mother-of-pearl spoon and a very classy can opener.
