What to give from Mallorca: typical products as gifts
A gift from Mallorca that you can eat lasts less than a souvenir, but it is remembered better. These ideas work for almost any occasion.
Ideas by budget
Small gestures
- One of the Mallorcan pâtés.
- A salt with aromatic herbs: sea salt and condiments.
Mid-range gift
- A bottle of Mallorcan olive oil.
- The oil, salt and pâté pack for making pa amb oli.
For the person who has everything
A new-harvest oil coupage from a small producer usually surprises.
Mallorcan sweets
- An ensaimada in a tin from Horno Santo Cristo: it travels well protected and is the most recognisable Mallorcan gift.
- The Apaema artisan turrón, made with organic Mallorcan almonds.
- Some orange almonds from Bessó de Mallorca or a fig bread.
Ready-made packs
If you do not want to choose product by product: the sobrasada and honey pack or the Mallorca Gourmet Basket, with 8 products. You will find them all in packs and baskets.
Tips for getting it right
- Think about how the recipient will use it: cooking, appetisers, a gift for a trip?
- If the gift is travelling, protect bottles and glass jars well.
- Order in good time if it is for a specific date.
Frequently asked questions
Can I send the gift directly to someone else?
Yes, you can enter a shipping address different from your own when you order.
Gifts by occasion
- Christmas: a set of oil, salt and pâté, or a bottle of new-harvest oil.
- Birthdays: a small but carefully chosen gift, such as a pâté or a salt with herbs.
- Corporate gifts: a pack with several products from small producers, with a personalised card.
- Hosts and dinners: oil and salt to enjoy at home.
How to present it
A simple box or a cloth bag, and a note with two lines saying which producer it is from and how to enjoy it, turn a product into a gift with a story.
What to keep in mind
- Order in good time if it is for a specific date.
- Bear in mind whether the person has allergies or dietary restrictions.
- Prefer non-perishable products if the gift is going to travel.
If you do not know what to choose
A mild oil from a small producer is a safe choice: it works in almost any kitchen. If you want more variety, add a salt with herbs and a pâté.
