Meredith Hayden (aka Wishbone Kitchen) became TikTok famous by sharing her life as a private chef. Now people are calling her the next Martha Stewart, and whether you subscribe to that or not, you have to admit her lifestyle is covetable, especially for the cooking-obsessed person you know. These gifts are Wishbone Kitchen-inspired to bring out their inner chef.

When they’re out picking up groceries, they’ll want to look cute (Wishbone Kitchen always does). This cropped baby tee says, “oh, I just threw this on, and yes, I have an appreciation for shellfish.” It’s also made of recycled cotton.

For the person who also fancies themselves a homegrown barista, gift them this matcha kit so they can make lattes at home. It comes with an electric frother, scooper, sifter, and a handbook for beginners. Add a jar of ceremonial-grade matcha to round it out.

When Wishbone Kitchen is out in the garden grabbing fresh ingredients, she’s likely wearing overalls. These are both fashionable and useful when they’re out in their own garden. They have a relaxed fit and look like they’ve been worn for years (in the best way).

Or maybe the most tipsy countdown...which isn't necessarily a bad thing when gift-buying madness can feel overwhelming. This set includes 12 curated wines, with two nonalcoholic options. Each can is equal to a glass and a half, so consume responsibly. It ships nationwide (score), plus you can choose to include a custom gift note, which makes the entire gifting experience sweeter.

Not only is this wired basket functional for holding the spoils of their picking, but also it looks chic sitting in their kitchen, especially when it’s personalized. They can wash their fruits and veggies right in it, and they can use it to store tools and firewood when not in use.

If they’re going to have a fun phone case, make it this one. It’s covered in cartoon versions of their favorite pasta — from farfalle to macaroni — and will make them smile every time they take a mirror selfie in their apron. We can vouch for Casetify’s cases; they’re practically indestructible.

If their pie is going to be as pretty as it is delicious, then they should have a designer pie dish to display it in. This one will reveal a cheeky message once their guests have polished off what’s inside.

Butter loyalists, stand up. These socks are cozy for lounging, but would also look cute worn with loafers and a skirt. They’ll make a statement, while showing off their appreciation for toast’s first friend.

If you know Wishbone Kitchen, you know she loves to minimize food waste. These containers — which one editor raved about — are perfect for storing everything from overnight oats to matcha lattes. They’re airtight, so nothing is getting stale in here, and have grippy lids that stack easily.

Her first cookbook is filled with recipes from years spent chefing in New York and the Hamptons, and growing up visiting Nantucket. They range from 20-minute dinners to elegant holiday meals, and the pictures are just as beautiful as the food will be.

When they’re making grandma’s sugar cookies or creating recipes of their own, they can jot down the secret ingredients in this lovely journal. It has separate sections for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and treats, plus a helpful conversion table in the back.

If they really want their dinner party to stand out, they can add these minimalist green marble cutlery rests to each place setting. They’re great for holding forks or chopsticks and even have a groove for placing a knife.

Not only will this glass olive oil cruet keep their oil fresh, but also it looks great sitting on their kitchen counter. It has a bright green stopper and a glass olive on the inside. Reviewers mention the glass being thin, so handle it with care.

If they’ve watched Wishbone Kitchen’s day-in-the-life videos (and it’s likely they have), she always starts her day with coffee. Gift them this premium coffee maker, so they can do the same. It’s one of the only machines that can make a “half batch” pour over, so they won’t waste any coffee they don’t need.

We call this the adult version of the Easy-Bake Oven, but it does much more than make a tiny brownie in 45 minutes. It’s great for reheating leftovers, air-frying french fries, and cooking salmon much faster than a regular oven. Plus, it’ll look cute in their kitchen.

Sometimes the perfect gift is one they need but wouldn’t buy for themselves. This rice cooker will make fluffy, just-right rice every time with absolutely no sticking. Plus, it has a self-clean feature, which is all a chef could ever want.
