Björn's 2025 Holiday Gift Guide
The season of gifting is upon us once again, and we're here to help make it as easy and delicious as possible! Not only do we love sharing our ideas for gifts, many of which we give to loved ones ourselves, but we're happy to take the opportunity to give extra visibility to some of the hard-working local makers we're proud to partner with all year long. We hope these suggestions will help make your holiday season a bit merrier and brighter!
Edible Gifts
We may be somewhat biased, but we think edible gifts are some of the best and easiest to give. Not only is it a fun way to introduce someone to a new favorite treat or spoil them with a luxury they may not buy themselves, it also means there won't be extra "stuff" laying around that someone may not need!
For those who like to lean into the theme, our new Whipped Pomander Honey and seasonal favorite Whipped Peppermint Honey are here just in time - gift them together for a delicious, festive way to honor this time of year. Our new Honey Lollipops come in four flavors and are already a hit with the kids in our lives, and parents will love that they're made with only non-GMO pure cane sugar and honey, without corn syrup, artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.
For those new to Björn's, or for the hard-to-buy-for crowd, our Infused Sampler comes packaged in a beautiful gift box with three of our most beloved infused honey varieties - Lemon, Whiskey Barrel, and Whipped Lavender - as well as a wooden honey dipper. If you have an epicurean in your life who appreciates something unique and special, a jar of Pine's Honey Pistachio Butter should do the trick. It's a rich and decadent alternative to peanut butter, and uses Björn's Raw Traditional Honey!
If you're visiting any of our retail locations this season, be sure to try Toute Douceur's incredible chocolate-dipped honeycomb candy, or delicious honey caramels and other sweet treats from Anellabees. They might be just the thing for your loved ones (or yourself!).
Skincare & Wellness
Health and wellness consumables are another gift we love to treat our loved ones too - from our immune systems to our skin, our bodies could all use a little extra love this time of year! What better way to show you care than by investing in the health of those you love?
Our classic, hive-based skincare is a great starting point for any recipient: our Honey and Beeswax Body Lotion has a naturally unisex fragrance and helps repair skin during dry seasons, our Propolis Lip Balm protects the delicate skin barrier (and is perfect for skiers!), and our Propolis Mouth Spray keeps germs at bay and freshens breath at the same time! Slip one or two into a stocking, or wrap them all together for the ultimate winter care package. Another immune-boosting favorite that's decidedly more tasty is our Medicinal Honey Sampler, a perfectly packaged set of our propolis, royal and osha root honeys that makes a wonderful gift for anyone trying to stay their healthiest this season (looking at you, teachers!).
If you're looking for something a little different, check out our honey soaps from Two Ravens! With four different scents (and a special holiday edition coming soon) there's one for every home, and all of them will keep hands soft, kill germs and smell wonderful while offering something a bit more exciting than your average hand soap.
We're excited to carry Foxtown Farms' beautifully crafted honey syrups in our retail stores - all of their flavors are wonderful in tea, coffee, cocktails and dressings (or even taken alone as a tasty health tonic), and their natural and organic ingredients ensure you can feel great about treating yourself or someone else to a bottle.
Home Goods
For the homebodies and hosts among us, there are plenty of ways to make their holidays cheery without having to guess what goes with their decor. Our beeswax taper candles are simple, natural and classic. Pair them with a lovely set of candlesticks or gift them alone! For something a bit more festive, be sure to check out our special Holiday Harvest candle handmade in collaboration with Breckenridge Candle Cabin, in stores only!
One of our favorite gifts to give this time of year is wildflower seeds. We think they offer a bit of hope for the spring to come, and are a great way to support pollinators no matter where your loved ones live. You can even plant them now - many seeds prefer a period of cold before coming to life - just tell your recipient to cover them with a thin layer of dirt for protection and enjoy your gift for months or years to come.
Toys and Accessories
Don't forget about the kiddos and furry friends! We have a few go-to gifts that encourage play and curiosity in all species, while also supporting communities and environments in need. Our Bee Buddies are bee-loved by kids of all ages, and all of our Wuaman products help support women artisans in underdeveloped communities in the Peruvian Andes. We've recently added some of their new headbands to our retail stores, which are perfect for keeping ears both warm and stylish all winter long. For those who like a bit of sparkle, our newest earrings will slip right into your favorite person's stocking.
If you know a budding naturalist or want to encourage more outdoor time, our Classic Flower Press Kit makes a wonderful one-and-done gift. Pair it with a package of your favorite flower seeds, or whip up a DIY scavenger hunt for different plants, and give them the gift of a screentime-free activity (at least for a little while).
For our four-legged family members, we're excited to carry products from Project Hive, a B Corp certified company dedicated to saving bees and restoring pollinator habitats by partnering with nonprofits with every purchase. Their silicone dog toys - including a combination flying disc/lick mat and a fillable chew toy - are easy to clean, come in our favorite color, and will be the hit of the dog park.

Whatever your plans for the next couple months, we hope some of these ideas will help make things easier and more fun for all. From all of us at Björn's Colorado Honey, thank you for your support and we hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
