2. Ideas For Those Who Like Unusual Flavours
Stateside Texas BBQ Milk Chocolate Bar 100g

Wonka Rainbow Nerds 142g

3. Gifts For Teens Interested in Growing
Japanese Micro Herb Growing Set - Shiso, Hawk Claw Chilli, Wasabina
Perfect for a teenager who’s interested in new flavours – this set of micro herbs is really easy to grow. It’s almost impossible to buy these herbs fresh in Europe, but with this set of Japanese seeds you’ll have them on your dishes without even leaving the continent. Japanese shiso leaf is probably the most famous, with its distinctive flavour and jagged spade-shaped leaves.
Papa Peropon Panda - Grow Your Own Basil
