Everyone has the hard-to buy-for friend or family member. What do you buy someone who has everything? If you are feeling a little crafty or trying to save some money this holiday season, consider gifting food. Here are some unique options that will add some sugar and spice to the people you love.

Coffee Cupcakes

I can’t think of a cuter gift for a co-worker. Baked in a paper coffee cup, these coffee-flavored cupcakes with icing will be a welcome addition this holiday season. The best part: they are very easy to transport. Photo and recipe by HGTV.ccom

Cranberry Honey Butter

I would have never considered making a homemade butter with cranberries, honey and grated orange peel. The thing to consider when making it is it’s good for two weeks or you can freeze it for up to three months. Photo and recipe by HGTV.com

Holiday Breakfast Box

This link includes recipes for cardamom-pear butter and spiced cinnamon biscuits, but you could customize it with scones or baked goods from a local bakery and your favorite coffee.
