The Best Harry Potter Gifts for Food Lovers

Aprons: the cloaks of the kitchen. Every kitchen-wizard needs to dress the part. This apron is equal parts dazzling and practical with its prominent house crest, easily-adjustable straps and massive pocket (with a section specially designed for wands).

Have you ever woken up craving pancakes shaped like the Golden Snitch or the Sorting Hat? Well someone in your life has—and without specialized pancake molds these will come out looking all wrong. Save them the embarrassment by hooking them up with this set for the holiday.

For the fan still clinging to the possibility of a Harry Potter anime, this ramen bowl will make them feel both seen and heard by Warner Bros. With a capacity of 20 ounces and a matching pair of chopsticks, they can ignore the “ramen” part and use this for anything fit for a bowl. Warning: may lead to fan art.

If you have a talkative bourbon-drinker in your life, you’ve heard plenty about the importance of the right ice. What makes great ice? Minimal surface area (to slow melting) and a flashy appearance (to add panache). A frozen Snitch checks both boxes. It’ll look even better in the matching glasses. Perfect for someone who just turned 21 (or 41).

Little known fact: six out of eight Harry Potter movies are secretly Christmas movies. This cookbook transports the vibes of Goblet of Fire’s Yule Ball to any kitchen. While the Weasleys may not be present, they’ll be there in spirit with Ginny’s mini mincemeat tarts. Stand included.

These laser-engraved cutting boards, personalized in the iconic Harry Potter font, are also great as serving platters. They come in eight different sizes and a choice of three types of wood (maple, cherry or walnut). Hand wash only; an annual coat of mineral oil will keep it pristine.

Every viewing of The Sorcerer’s Stone reminds fans of the treats they have no access to—until now. This trifecta of mythical sweets will teleport the candy-lover right to the food cart on the Hogwarts Express. Chocolate Frogs, Jelly Slugs and Every Flavour Jelly Beans make for perfect stocking stuffers.

Double, double toil and trouble. That isn’t a Harry Potter reference, but it made you think of cauldrons! The ceramic cauldron soup mug will make meals cozy and magical. The lid keeps soups and stews warm—it’s notched for easy storage of the included spoon.

Butterscotch beer, or as the kids of Hogwarts call it, “butterbeer,” is the drink of choice for wizards everywhere. Unlike the real stuff in Hogsmeade, this batch contains no alcohol. Be a hero at a holiday party where the adults are outnumbered, and show up with a six-pack of this delicious concoction.

Every student-wizard needs a cloak, wand and cauldron. Every chef (from neophyte to expert) needs an oven mitt, apron, pot holder and set of wooden spoons. If they match, even better! True Harry Potter fans will prioritize these bamboo utensils over boring non-themed ones.

There’s no hex or charm in our world that can keep drinks at the right temperature, but Corkcicle is close to making that a reality. This set comes with two high-quality pieces of drinkware: a sport canteen that keeps drinks cool for 25 hours and hot for 12, and a stemless wine tumbler that keeps cool for six hours and hot for three. And with silicone bottoms, no spell will be able to knock these over.

Snitches, owls, Sorting Hats, glasses: all of the iconic Harry Potter imagery is represented in this set of eight cookie cutters. Twelve icing bags and four decorating tips are included so the whole family (plus friends) can work together.

Most jars in Hogwarts are located in Professor Snape’s closet (which is strictly off limits to students). Instead of storing rare ingredients to cure hexes, this jar is ideal for cookies, thanks to the rubber seal and glass lid. They don’t need to be Harry Potter-themed cookies, but they should be (see above).

There are so many places to add personality in the kitchen. Few think to use salt and pepper shakers to flaunt their fandom. Modeled after the Hogwarts Express and its home, Platform 9 ¾, this ceramic pair makes the perfect gift for a new apartment.

Hogwarts Legacy is the long-awaited video game that gives fans a chance to live their dream Hogwarts experience. Gamers will relish the opportunity to customize their own wizard and write their own story. Although the bulk of the game is focused on spells and hexes, one of the most essential skills is potion crafting. Expect those missions to translate to expert-level soups and stews.

Spice up the kitchen with these petite ceramic Harry Potter-inspired jars. Each rustic-style two-inch-high jar has a secure cork seal to keep spices fresh. The set of four includes one for each of the Hogwarts houses.

Wine makes a great gift, but you want to make sure it stays fresh long after being opened. Plan ahead, and pair a bottle with this high-quality, chrome-plated stopper marked with the Gryffindor seal. Perfect for fancy olive oil as well.

When Harry and his friends go on their Christmas trip to the enchanted Hogsmeade Village, they always go straight to the Three Broomsticks Inn for a glass of butterbeer. These pint-shaped butterbeer candies, inspired by the beverage, come in tiny fun-size barrels. Are they just butterscotch gummies? That isn’t relevant. No further questions.

There was once a time when refrigerators seemed like magic. The brilliance of mini fridges still seems like some type of sorcery. Able to hold up to six cans, this energy-efficient fridge emblazoned with all four house crests brings enchantment to any desk, den or dorm.

There are some problems magic can’t solve. Have you ever seen Hermione conjure chocolate with elaborate yet precise designs? Thought not. These silicone candy molds have eight different shapes and come in sets of two. Oven, dishwasher and microwave safe.

Why does anyone bother with the Quaffle if a Snitch is worth 15 times the amount of points? No idea what we’re talking about? Don’t worry, your recipient will. A Snitch hot chocolate bomb—complete with gold-tinted shell and infused marshmallows—may not win any Quidditch matches, but it makes watching them from home a much cozier experience.

If there’s someone in your life pursuing a graduate degree in potions, they need this book of 35 Hogwarts-themed cocktails. Professor Snape will be put to shame when he tastes their firewhiskey, but he’ll probably feel much better after a round of amortencia (love potion).

For the family that celebrates their differences or a fan who’d appreciate some flair for their first apartment. Each set comes with one for each Hogwarts house. If they find the Hufflepuff one collecting dust, they’re also great for showing off flowers. Dishwasher safe.

From sweet Sorting Hat cupcakes to savory wand breadsticks, this book is packed with recipes and photos of Potter-inspired treats. The whole family will enjoy the inevitable influx of pastries. Start with cookies shaped like Luna’s Spectrespecs and work your way to Salazar Slytherin’s sourdough snake. Everyone downwind of your house will thank you.

If you still fill a stocking for someone of legal drinking age, make their ancient eyes light up when they come face-to-face with the secret map of Hogwarts engraved in a bottle opener. Suitable for anyone who solemnly swears that they are up to no good.
