The Local Gift Idea List: Food and Drink Products Made in Nashville
Readers often ask if I have a list of Nashville made products that could be put into gift baskets for the holidays or out of town guest bags for weddings. Up until now, I didn’t have an actual list. Usually I would just rattle off a few ideas that quickly came to mind, but the four emails I’ve gotten in the past four days prompted me to create this post so I can reference it from now on.
As I learn of new locally made products, I’ll keep this updated. If you notice that I’m missing something, please leave a comment and let me know. You can click on the names of the products/companies to go directly to their websites.
Snacks and Sweets
Mountain Jim’s Tennessee Tea Cakes
Nashville Chocolate and Nut Co.
Olive and Sinclair Chocolate Co.
Condiments
Breads and Grains
Beverages
Whisper Creek Tennessee Sipping Cream
Note: a few of these products are made just outside of Nashville. All are made in Middle Tennessee.
I DOUBLY PUFFY HEART the TN sipping cream, addictive!
Love this list – thank you!
For hot sauces, The Southern. Peace & Plenty is my favorite!
I’d also add Hog Heaven’s BBQ sauce!
I want a basket with ALL of this in it!
Jacks’ Tennessee barbeque sauce is my favorite! Mmm pulled pork!
Great listings. Here are a few more……………
Music City Suds – Soaps
Thistle Farms – lotions, organics
The Bang Company – Candy Company
Tennessee Relish
Colt’s – Candy
I second what Yvonne said. Music City Suds and Thistle Farms are great. Thistle Farms is an amazing organization. Run by women, they get women off the streets.

I have no affiliation with either company. I Love products from both places and I love the work Thistle Farms does- by women, for women.
Great List!! I love it. High Note Gifts is a great place to get a gift basket with many of these Nashville products already put together for you – with a bow on top! Quality made, all local Nashville items for easy personal or corporate gifts shipped anywhere in the U.S.

Project 615 is a great company that sells a lot of apparel. The company puts the profits back into helping rehabilitate the homeless population.
Great article, totally what I needed.
Bourbon Pecan Nola Granola! Nola Granola Snack Company is divine.
Please consider adding Chicken Scratch rub from Thunderbird and Early Bird brine.
