So you have a bestie on your holiday list who’s vegan? Yeah, those amazing cheese gifts aren’t going to cut it. Thankfully, there’s no shortage of incredible vegan gifts for the plant-based set, whether you’re shopping for a cruelty-free clotheshorse or your college roommate who has a degree in epic smoothies.

We’ve sampled and taste-tested the vegan universe high and low to bring to you the absolute best vegan gifts on the market. In fact, after eating more than our fair share of vegan truffles and chocolates for “research,” we’re pretty sure we’ll be ditching dairy for a while. And leather goods? Why fork over the cash when cruelty-free leather looks just like the real deal? (P.S. Many of the presents also make great offerings for your active friends and health- and wellness-focused loved ones.)

Alas, this one isn’t for the cheese lovers, but we promise plenty of amazing flavorful finds!
