Some like it hot, and instead of the usual hot sauce set, here’s a gift that delivers equal parts heat and flavor. The pies arrive frozen and ready-to-bake, along with a cute menu card with heating instructions and garnishes (like pistachios for the Truffle Ricotta) so you can have a celebratory Mother’s Day dinner on the table in 30 minutes.
The sampler pack includes six pizzas, including Roni Supreme, anchored by a duo of smoky melted Gouda and mozzarella and Battistoni pepperoni Truffle Ricotta, with generous dollops of whipped ricotta and a sweet truffle honey drizzle and Le Big Matt Burger, Emmy’s Squared’s famous Le Big Matt Burger in pizza form, a delicious, logic-defying combination of chopped, crispy burger crumbles, spicy Sammy Sauce atop melted American and mozzarella cheese, plus pickles for topping (an absolute must). The tender dough yields a chewy bite, and provides a canvas for ample toppings. These Detroit-style pizzas are baked in rectangular pans, which creates a super crisp cheese crust with golden brown edges and audible crunch. Pizza is always a crowd-pleaser, but these gourmet pies from Brooklyn-bred purveyor Emmy Squared, founded by Emily Hyland in 2016, ups the ante with a gift-worthy pizza party pack. Sign mom up for a scone subscription, which includes sampler or create-your-own options. A medley of scones are accompanied by a jar of Georgia Jams, a mini jar of clotted cream (a must if you enjoy eating your scones like the British), Urban Tea loose leaf tea, and a mini glass teapot press. The incredibly tender scones reheat like a dream (and freeze well, too) and take a starring turn in this tea-time-inspired Mother’s Day basket. The cranberry orange is the one that started it all, but you’ll also find classics like lemon poppyseed, gluten-free options, and sweet-savory numbers, like fig and goat cheese (Hala’s personal favorite). Hala, the "chef supreme" of the family made all the kids’ birthday cakes now, she’s using her baking talents to turn out flavor - and texture -forward scones.
Today, they share that sentiment with Seven Sisters Scones (yes, there really are seven sisters, and two brothers), a bakery-café they co-own in Johns Creek, Georgia. When Hala and Farrah were growing up, the act of gathering around a table and sharing food was the point of connection for their Lebanese family.
Each package component comes with helpful cooking tips and reheating instructions to help you turn out a memorable and delicious Mother’s Day dinner. To ensure a perfectly flavorful crust on your steak, pick from one of the custom seasoning blends, either the signature seasoning or private reserve rub, a heady mix punched up with hints of coriander, dill and caraway that’ll up your family’s grilling game all summer. Dessert includes either individual summer fruit starts or chocolate molten lava cakes. For the all-important sides selection, you get a choice of potato (we’re partial to the individual scalloped potatoes) and a choice of vegetable (opt for the creamed spinach). Choose from boneless New York strips or filet mignon, then move on to the surf selections, either skewered split-lobster tail skewers or jumbo cooked shrimp. Bring the classic steakhouse experience to your dining room table with this customizable surf-and-turf-inspired steakhouse dinner for four from family-owned purveyor Omaha Steaks.
