What gift should you give for Grandmothers’ Day?

Is your grandmother fond of sweet treats? Spoil her by gathering her favourite delicacies: chocolates, biscuits and teas from around the world will be your best friends. You could even make some of these treats yourself!

If she has a special dietary requirement, you can adapt the recipes or opt for savoury condiments and snacks. 

How about sharing your favourite recipes with your grandmother? She probably knows plenty already, but does she know how to make New York cheesecake? Lebanese houmous? Or Indian dahl? Together, broaden your culinary horizons and introduce her to a cosmopolitan cuisine that might just shake up some of her habits.

You can select each recipe and record it in a notebook, or even create your own recipe book if you feel inspired to unleash your inner designer. 

Table napkins or bath towels personalised for your grandmother, with her initials, or better still: the affectionate nickname you use for her—“mamita”, “baba”, “mamilou”. With this idea, you’re certain to make her day!

Some Embrin products are available with embroidery; simply select this option when filling your basket and let your creativity shine. 

Did you know? Embroidered household linen bearing the initials of the lady of the house was once an essential part of the trousseau prepared for a young woman’s marriage. 

Treat your grandmother to a relaxing, pampering moment. For this, put together a wellness kit with natural cosmetics such as, for example, a linseed oil soap or a natural shampoo.

If she enjoys make-up, a nail polish or a lipstick might also delight her. 

Eco-friendly idea: consider furoshikis for wrapping your gifts. These linen squares are reusable and will allow your grandmother to wrap her next presents and pass them on in turn—a lovely gesture for the planet and for those around us.
