10 Ramadan Hostess Gift Ideas

Have you been invited to an iftar party and are wondering what to take for your gracious hostess who has worked hard to arrange a delicious meal for you?

Before you think of stopping by at a grocery store on your way to the party to pick up yet another cake or a bunch of flowers read on for some gift ideas that your hostess will truly appreciate, Insha’Allah.

Remember, giving and accepting gifts is a Sunnah . Also, don’t forget to make dua for your hosts while breaking your fast.

Homemade Goodies

It’s not uncommon to take a homemade dish, usually dessert, to be served at the gathering even if it’s not a potluck. Everyone appreciates the effort behind a homemade treat. However, it’s always a good idea to ask the hostess beforehand. In many cases the hostess has her entire menu planned out before sending out  invitations. I often see multiple people turning up with desserts in addition to the desserts prepared by the hostess herself which leads to tons of leftovers that go waste.

If your hostess would like you to bring dessert for the guests, you might want to check out quick recipes like this Shortcut Strawberry Trifle or Easy Pineapple Mousse so that you don’t end up spending too much time in the kitchen during Ramadan.

Another option is to take some homemade treats which the hosts can enjoy themselves after the party is over. Check out my recipes for Eggless Cardamom Cookies and Melting Moments. You can pack them in a cute keepsake container.

Store-Bought Edible Treats

If for any reason I have to opt for a last minute store-bought edible treat I always go in for something non-perishable or frozen. In many cases there are lots of leftovers after a party which is why I prefer giving something which can be enjoyed a few days after the party is over.

If you don’t want to go in for a run-of-the mill treat like a box of chocolates or frozen dessert check out this Date and Nut Platter from MK Gifts and Favors – perfect for Ramadan. Insha’Allah, you will be rewarded every time your hosts break their fasts with the dates gifted by you.
