Jim Dandy Beef Jerky
For all you cowgirls and cowboys out there, this Minnesota company uses top-quality round steak American beef. The hickory-wood smoked jerkey comes in four flavors -- Original, Peppered, Black Label and Good 'N Smokey. It's a tasty and effective way to tell someone that they're not jerky.
Thomasina's Brittle
It's a good time of year for one of our all-time favorite made-in-Minnesota sweet treats. It's buttery, nutty and addictive. You'll get a thank you for this one.
Salty Tart
Place a holiday order now for a stunning Buche de Noel(much more impressive than our attempt in 8th grade) from Salty Tart or just go with a dozen gingerbread cookies tied with a bow. Pre-order now for Dec. 24 pick-up.
Fruit Share
With snow everywhere, fresh fruit is a true luxury. This Stillwater-based company has packages of organic, in-season fruit. A full-year of monthly shipments? We can dream.
Aunt Else's Æbleskiver Starter Kit
This Scandinavian popovery-pancakey delicacy is the perfect winter baking project. Master this and you can call yourself a true Minnesotan. You betcha!
