Mother’s Day gift ideas for a foodie mom – CNET [CNET]

This story is part of Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2021. CNET editors round up the hottest gadgets for Mom this year.

The clock is ticking and if you’re still looking for a great Mother’s Day for your foodie mom, it’s time to pull the trigger. Don’t worry, we’ve got a buffet of great gift options for the food-obsessed that will still arrive by this coming Sunday. Our picks for a mom or motherly figure in your life include gift ideas for the established foodie as well as those who have discovered their inner gourmand a bit more recently. 

There are several approaches depending on what type of food enthusiast mum you’re shopping for. Score a premade snack or gourmet delivery of something delicious, or present Mom with the latest gadget and ingredients to forge her own dining destiny if cooking is more of an interest. It’s also possible that your foodie mom already knows what she likes and all it takes to win the day is finding the best possible version of that thing — be it wine, cheese, steak, seafood, cookware or anything else. If that’s the case, don’t overthink it, kids.

Whether Mom was born with a culinary curiosity, raised on Julia Child and aged balsamic, or is more of a newly minted foodie ready to try something new, we’ve rounded up a plethora of the best Mother’s Day food gifts including edible subscriptions, fine nibbles, chocolate, wine and gourmet gift baskets. We’ve also got creative food gift ideas that are ideal for moms, ranging from the classic to the experimental — or whatever variety of food-lovin’ mother you are blessed to call yours.  

And with Mother’s Day less than a week away, we’ve checked shipping and delivery options and noted any items that may not arrive in time.
