These are unique gifts for those who love to cook. Tourists come to Louisiana to experience the Cajun culture, including the food.
Bring some of these popular items to their kitchen.
Gifts for Chefs
Meat Injector – we inject seasonings in turkeys and other meats. You can make your own sauce to inject or buy some already made.
Café Du Monde Coffee and Beignets – This is very popular in New Orleans, LA. With this gift, you can bring the famous coffee and beignets to them.
Louisiana Mug – This mug makes a great combination with the Café Du Monde Coffee. These gifts for chefs can be used for those who love coffee.
Chef Paul Prudhomme’s Louisiana Kitchen Cookbook – Cooks will love this to get more recipes to cook.
Gumbo Bowls – These Tabasco Vintage gumbo bowls make a great gift.
Gumbo Platter – Great for entertaining and displaying as decoration.
Cajun Kitchen Towel – Festive towel for any kitchen. If making a Cajun basket of goodies, this is great to put at the bottom and have it hang over the sides. Then you can place the other items in the basket too.
Cajun Apron – Chefs need aprons to keep their clothes clean. This is a great gift!
Cajun Injector Batter Pro Bowl – We have one of these and love it – less cleanup! We use it to batter shrimp and fish.
Aunt Sally’s Pralines – Made in New Orleans, LA the Creole way. These are so good and I treat myself to the calories when we visit the French Quarter in New Orleans. These are my favorite pralines!
Lagniappe
In Cajun country, we use the word “lagniappe” quite a bit. It means a little extra or bonus.
Here’s another gift idea not directly related to chefs, but would be cute in a basket of these cooking items above.
Stuffed Alligator – The alligators are in the swamps which represent so much of our Cajun land.
While each of these would make nice gifts for chefs, try a combination of these in a gift basket!

This is a really cute theme for a gift guide. Just FYI, I clicked on the square crab tray, went to the Amazon page, only to find out that they are “temporarily out of stock” of this particular item. Maybe you might want to find a replacement and suggest that until this tray comes back in stock?
