by Joleen Gan on July 29, 2024

We spend countless hours each year trying to find the best Father's Day gift to show dad how much he means to us.

While it’s true that the best Father’s Day gift would be spending some quality time together, he surely wouldn't say no to a gift you can share and experience together.

As one of Australia’s leading gifting companies, we thought to simplify your gifting journey for you.

Forget the same old socks, BBQ tool set, shaving kit, or tech gadgets. We’ve compiled the best Father’s Day gifts to give dad this year - from your heart and our bakery, straight to dad’s door.

Whether you’re surprising a first-time dad, father-in-law, or any paternal figure in your life, we’ve got you covered.

Father's Day gifts for dads who appreciate a good drink

Whiskey might be the daddies of Father’s Day gifts, but not every dad is an enthusiast. Whether dad considers himself an amateur mixologist, beer lover, or wine connoisseur, these alcohol gifts will surely have dad toasting to his favourite kid!

Gin & Tonic Hamper
We asked gin lovers what their favourite drink was and the classic gin and tonic came out on top. This hamper has got everything you need to create the perfect G&T: Australia’s favourite gins and tonic water made from Tasmanian spring water. It also comes with vegan-friendly chocolate-coated strawberries - super yums!

It's Corona Time!
This might just be the best dessert box for beer lovers. It comes with loads of different desserts to pair with your beer and is great for sharing at BBQs and family gatherings.

Very Enjoyable Beer & Snacks Hamper
This hamper is a great mix of sweet & savoury snacks paired with 3 cans of Australian GOAT beer. If dad enjoys watching AFL games while having some beer and snacks, this gift basket is for him.

Father's Day gifts for the cheeky dad

What do lobsters do on Father's Day? Shellabrate their dads. And what would pigs give their dad for Father's day? Lots of hogs and kisses. Your human dad might enjoy humour, so get him a cheeky gift to give him a good chuckle.

Our most popular Father's Day gift! Each year, we see thousands of funny reactions as dads open their gift box, letting butterflies fly outta the box. Make your surprise even greater by adding more butterflies confetti, and roses to your explosion! The cleanup is insane but we promise it's well worth it. Dad'll even get a mudcake after!

How crazy would it be if dad got his very own boat for Father's Day? We think he deserves his very own motorboat. This gift box includes our famous dog bone donut and a pair of yummy double D donuts.

Father's Day gifts for dads who could use a little self-care
