We all have someone in our lives who is impossible to buy for and more often than not you end up reaching for one of two things… slippers or a tin of posh biscuits. And while yes those are strictly speaking *presents*, it’s time to be a bit more inventive! We know that shopping for someone with a dietary requirement is extra hard, which is why we have put together a list of presents for the free-from-foodie in your life. All the items below are free from the 14 major allergens, as well as vegetarian and vegan. Easy peasy!
NANDOS SIZZLER PAN- £18.50 Debenhams
This is the perfect gift for the spice fans in your life and comes with a bottle of Nandos signature Hot Sauce for ultimate flavour. Plus, the sauce can be bought year-round from supermarkets meaning your loved one will never run out of the peri-peri action. This kit works perfectly with veg, chicken, beef or halloumi cheese to get that Nandos-style sizzle.
ECOFFEE TRAVEL CUP- prices from £6, Ecoffee
