The ultimate list of Christmas gift ideas for foodies in Switzerland

2 December 2022 by jennb

Find some interesting gifts for your foodie friends: part II of III

This holiday season, why not try to shop locally? And to me, that means finding things, ideas, experiences in Switzerland. I’ve met a lot of interesting and talented people through the Foodies in Switzerland Facebook group. I thought I should start collecting them for you here on the website. Read Part I here. This is Part II.

Trouve by Stacey:

Redesigned vintage furniture, tabletop and lifestyle accessories

Stacey has a studio where she finds vintage things and gives them new life. She has a range of items from furnitures (big things: think wardrobes) to small (like tea cups). You can visit her in Ecublens, Vaud for a firsthand look at vintage finds and furniture before they go online for sale. There are some great holiday tabletop and gift items to choose from! How cute are those vintage fondue plates? (recently sold online…:-( ) But still, imagine what you’ll find if you go in and have a look? Prices start at 10 CHF.

Alpinte glasses

Swiss alps in your glass

A perfect gift for foodies who want to admire the Swiss Alps with a glass in hand. From the Matterhorn to the Titlis via the Jungfrau, discover the six emblematic peaks. All glasses are made entirely by hand in an artisanal way. Mouth blown, each piece is unique. A fruity cocktail for the aperitif? A dry whiskey by the fire? The on-the-rocks format lends itself perfectly to all occasions and will certainly not leave anyone indifferent.

Serrated knives using the landscape of the Swiss Alps

Any of the panorama knives (and associated cutting boards) make a great gift for your foodie. Like the Alpinte glasses, these gents were inspired to make a quality product with the landscape of Switzerland. Are you are looking for a practical but beautiful accessory in your kitchen? They make everything from bread knives to folding knives to cheese or mushroom knives, and more. The blades are made from surgical steel and the handles are made from walnut. They are beautiful AND functional. ALSO… don’t you love that they create knives for left-handed people? Here is a link (from Google) for those (no filter on the website).

WildWurst wild meat gift boxes

Last year, when my local Christmas market was cancelled because of COVID, I repackaged some of my inventory to a “meatlovers apéro box”. It was a big hit. This year, I met Peter Wilburg of WildWurst dried wild meats. I thought I would give him a shout out here.

JAGDFLEISCH! 100% Hunted in Switzerland. The wildest super food in Switzerland: all game meat 100% from the Swiss hunt. It would be pretty much impossible to find a more locally-harvested, organic meat source in the country. They hunt wild boar and venison and transform it into Biltong (traditional dried meat recipe from South Africa). The result is the development of authentic, high-quality meat products for your enjoyment. If you try something, make sure to let him know you saw him on this gift guide 🙂 !
