Top Tips for Wrapping Foodie Gifts

Homemade cakes and bakes make a tasty and thoughtful gift but can be tricky to wrap. Don’t worry though! Help is at hand!

You can buy lovely boxes and bags from your local kitchen shop, or a craft supplier like Hobbycraft. Make them prettier with simple embellishments, such as ribbons, twine and buttons, and a handmade tag.

 

 

For my Christmas tags I buy a cheap pack of plain white luggage labels from the supermarket or post office and decorate them.

I save old wrapping paper and craft paper offcuts, Christmas cards and ribbons (saved from gift bags and cut from inside dresses!) and group them into colours.

I then trim some paper to fit the tag with my paper cutter, stick on using double-sided tape and top with a piece of ribbon and a button or a paper shape cut out using a simple paper punch.

 

 

There are lots more ideas for fabulous ways to wrap and label your gifts.

See our Pinterest board for further inspiration (there are lots of scrummy gifty recipes too).
