This set comes complete with *takes a deep breath* one Compost Cookie, one Cornflake-Marshmallow-Chocolate-Chip Cookie, one Corn Cookie, one Blueberry & Cream Cookie, one Chocolate-Chocolate Cookie, and one Confetti Cookie. I would fight you for any one of them.

Indulgence Spa is a Maryland-based, Black woman-owned Etsy shop established in 2015 that specializes in soaps, hair care, and body products.
Psst — I recently started using this myself in the Three Wishes Tea flavor (a combo of tea leaves, peaches, rosebuds, and marigolds) and the smell alone is swoon-worthy, but I love love love how it feels in the shower. It has a satisfying creamy whipped texture, but suds up when you use it so you get that nice satisfying squeaky clean feeling, too. It's lasting a long time, too (which is great, but means I have to wait a little longer to try the other flavors 😂).
Promising review: "Very delicious and very rich! I bought a set in the Black Opium fragrance, which smells just divine! I will definitely buy again." —invisible9

Promising review: "OH MY GOSH!! This little thing is amazing. It cooks evenly so far, heats up quick, doesn’t take long to cook. I’ve not timed it but maybe a minute per waffle. Also if you leave it in a bit too long it doesn’t burn the outsides, just gets them a little crispier. I used it for cookie dough which was worth the purchase in itself. I am looking forward to finding out what else I can make eggo-sized waffles out of, I will probably be giving these with a box of waffle mix for Christmas gifts this year." —Sara

Well this is definitely something we will always have in our home from here on out. It’s a little spicy and a little sweet. You can put it on just about anything.

Promising review: "Just received these cute little boxes and am in love with them. Very thick and sturdy plastic but easy enough to open. These will work perfectly for filling solid perfumes and giving out as stocking stuffer gifts as I don't have to worry about it being a snug fit/lid falling off. I imagine these would also be great for pretend food for kids' play-sets or for a kid's trinket box. Overall I love them, love their feel, love the colors and am very happy." —Mary

Promising review: "I have four small dogs and they have run of the house. I hated the idea that no matter how much you clean your house can smell like dogs because of the number of dogs. So I though I’d give this a try. Amazing! I got the Vanilla Creme Brûlée scent, which smells amazing. The dog smell was gone after burning this just once for a short time. The only downside I can think of is that it made me hungry!" —M. Hoffman

Each assortment is a mix of salty and sweet, and is curated so meltables like chocolate don't ship out in the warmer months!
Promising review: "I am amazed at how quickly this item arrived after ordered. Super cute packaging that makes this highly giftable. I appreciate the brochure inside that gives you the chance to rate each item 1 to 3 stars. There is a description of each item and a list of how to pair them with the right beverage. It is important to read these notes as one item in the box is best when merged with ice cream. The pizza crackers do have an unpleasant after taste but if consumed quickly they are not as terrible as others are saying. My favorite so far is a banana wafer and another wafer filled with a generous amount of chocolate and nuts. I also loved their cola- flavored version of Pop Rocks that were not dyed brown. This is delicious and would make a great gift to yourself or anyone else." —Cathryn Goll

Promising review: "I bought this for my daughter and her family. They love making and eating s'mores together. It is easy to use and works very well. I love the uniqueness of this item, it made the perfect gift. Now they don't have to wait until summer to make s'mores." —Raisin
Get it from Amazon for $28.50.
Each set comes with three flavors: a Milk Chocolate, a Marshmallow, and a Graham Cracker flavor. Basically, it's like a deconstructed s'more for their lips.
Promising review: "My mom and I are ChapStick fans, so I bought us each a pack of these. The marshmallow is clear, the chocolate is brown, and the graham cracker is tan. The color isn’t too extreme, but it will leave a little bit of tint on your lips. The flavors are DELICIOUS. Graham cracker reminds me of Golden Grahams cereal and chocolate is just perfect. I love the marshmallow best because it tastes slightly toasted." —Elle Ardee
Get it from Amazon for $2.99.
Each set comes with sweet rice flour, potato starch, matcha green tea powder, cocoa powder, a dough cutter, a silicone mochi mold, and instructions — all they need is sugar and ice cream.
Promising review: "This was a last-minute gift addition as we had gone to the grocery store and her favorite mochi ice cream flavor was sold out. I remembered seeing a kit here and purchased it with less than a week before her birthday and it came in a couple of days beforehand. The best part of the gift is the ability to keep making the mochi ice cream- the mold holds up and it's easy to source ingredients and make our own custom mochi!" —Alisha
Get it from UncommonGoods for $32.

Promising review: "Makes perfect cookies every time. In fact, I have been accused of bringing the best 'store bought' cookies that a person has ever tried (because no one can make the same size cookies every time). When cookies are the same size and thickness, all cook evenly! I recently left my scoop with grandchildren because they didn't have one. Little hands can handle the scoop and release action. This is my third reorder because I don't want to be without one!!!" —Avid Reader

They can add whatever chilled base for ice cream that they want — whether it's yogurt, fruit, cream, or something else — and measure out their own sugar or flavoring, which the machine will then churn for 30 minutes to turn into ice cream. Whatever they don't finish on the spot they can pop right back into the fridge!
Promising review: "This ice cream maker is exactly what I was looking for! It's EASY, WORKS GREAT, and makes delicious ice cream. I'm visiting family so some nights have even mixed up a couple batches in the same cup (freezing the cup only one time for all) and can get nearly three uses out of it with a well chilled ice cream mixture! Love this product and definitely recommend it. Mine even came in a gift box with an easy pop-up bow, so you could just add the bow and give as a gift if you want! Pretty neat for a small, light weight one-person ice cream maker!" —Buckleybookworm

Someone gifted me this tea once, and it really does taste *ridiculously* like red velvet cake (granted, I am generous with my milk and sugar). As someone with very high dessert and tea standards, I don't think it gets much better than this.
Promising review: "Tastes just like red velvet. I'm not sure how, but it does. I love this brand of tea and this is just another tea flavor that gets added to the long list of favorite flavors." —Ly

Psst — if they're caffeine or bust, may I suggest the Vanilla Almond, which is equally delicious and giftable.
Promising review: "The minute I opened the package I knew I made the right choice. This case is thick and well-made. I get so frustrated when my case falls and the AirBuds go in every direction. Couple of days ago the left ear fell out the case and a car ran over it. That cost me $69+ so I decided to take care of that issue and get a case. I purposely dropped it after I put the case in and everything was in tact.. I’m happy !!" —Karen

All you have to do is add generic kernels + whatever oils or butters they feel in their heart, and they'll be raring to go.
Promising review: "I have had a Hotpop bowl for three years now through college, and I absolutely love it!!! I even got several of my college friends ones as gifts because they were so impressed with it! I have popped popcorn both with and without oil in this bowl, and made various flavors of popcorn with it. I love making my classic 'curry flavor' popcorn; I fill the bowl till the first line with popcorn kernels, a spritz of cooking spray or 1 tsp oil, powdered salt and curry powder, and then I shake everything really quickly and then place the bowl in the microwave for 2.5 mins. One of my favorite snacks, and so easy to make! Cleaning the bowl is also extremely easy, just a quick wash with soap and water, or chucking it into the dishwasher. I also love that it store flat in my cabinet and doesn't take up much room. Highly recommend!" —Ritvik Bhattacharjee

These are also super handy because they stay upright on flat pans, so you don't even need to buy cupcake pan to make cupcake-shaped goodies! They're also designed for easy release and are dishwasher-, microwave-, and freezer-safe.
Promising review: "I bought these as part of a 'most customers also buy' type of bundle that Amazon recommended. I AM SO GLAD THAT I GAVE THEM A TRY! These little baking cups are amazing! I’ve used them for cupcakes and mini pound cakes (yes, mini pound cakes)! They bake evenly and beautifully. I leave them on during frosting and remove them just prior to serving; this makes for a gorgeous cupcake plate! I’m going to try making cupcake-shaped jello treats next. The cups are lightweight, but durable, and wash very easily in warm, soapy water. I will definitely be purchasing more. They are a perfect gift for any baker in your life. Excellent value for your money!" —YaLanda

Promising review: "This pie bird made a lovely gift for my friend who is very minimalist. Because it is so beautiful and classy it is easy for her to display in her kitchen. Because it is made by Le Creuset it is quality and useful when she actually bakes pies. It was hard for me to give away. I wish I had ordered myself one at the same time and will most likely order another in the future." —catfisherica
