Here are some really DELICIOUS things she'd love (but would never splurge on herself to buy), like:

• Truffle Salt - our 10% concentration version kicks arse over all the others!
• White Truffle Cream - decadent, versatile, and just plain delicious
• 12 Year Riserva Balsamico - just a couple of drops on scallops, salmon, fruit, cheese...
• Lemon Curd - great between layers of cake, atop French Toast, or served with berries in pastry cup
