Five Star Gift Ideas

Empanadas are a delicious and unique food choice, and there are a few different directions you could go in to personalize a wedding gift for your friend who loves them.

- Empanada-making kit: If your friend loves to cook, putting together a kit for making homemade empanadas could be a great option. You could include a set of empanada molds (which are fairly inexpensive), along with some recipe cards or a cookbook focused on empanada variations. If you want to go a step further, consider packaging up some of the key ingredients (like pre-made dough or canned filling) so that the recipient has everything they need to get started right away.

- Empanada-themed kitchen accessories: If your friend already loves to cook (or has mentioned wanting to cook more), you could look for kitchen accessories that highlight their love of empanadas. This could include things like an empanada-themed apron or pot holder set, a cutting board shaped like an empanada, or even just a set of fun kitchen magnets featuring images of different types of empanadas.

- Empanada cookbook: Speaking of cookbooks, there are many great options out there focused on empanadas specifically. Picking out a cookbook that features a variety of different empanada recipes (from traditional versions to more unusual variations) could be a great gift for someone who loves to cook and experiment in the kitchen.

- Empanada-shaped jewelry: If your friend loves empanadas but doesn't necessarily want to wear their love of food on their sleeve (or apron), you could look for more subtle gift ideas. For example, there are a variety of jewelry pieces available that feature empanada-shaped charms or pendants. Alternatively, you could look for a piece of art or home decor that features an empanada design, such as a poster or pillow cover.

Whatever gift you choose, try to think about what your friend loves most about empanadas, and how you can incorporate that sentiment into the present. Whether they love the flavors, the process of making them, or simply the memories associated with eating them, there are plenty of ways to create a memorable and personal gift that celebrates this unique food.

Or you can get her/him a star map with the date of the wedding.

“This was such a beautiful gift for my son and his wife for the day they married. My only problem was I left it in the cart where I tried to buy a frame and they never got to see it. I have to order another one, it was too perfect of a gift 🎁👍❤️”
