Need some gift ideas for Mother’s Day coming up this Sunday? We’ve rustled together 8 fun DIY gifts for you to spoil the special women in your life. Ranging from petit cakes and chocolate truffles to homemade bath bombs, there is a little something here for all moms and motherly figures!
1. For the ones who love roses
Instead of buying a bunch of roses, make these drop-dead-gorgeous vanilla and rose mini cakes. Classic flavours infused with some new elegance, these are the perfect sweet treat to spoil your mom on Mother’s Day. If you can’t find cherries, use any other berries in season.
2. For the tea fanatics
These homemade sugar cubes are super cute and make a really thoughtful gift. They need to dry at room temperature overnight or in the oven for a few hours so make sure you plan ahead.
3. For the earth children
Made with all-natural ingredients, spoil your mom with some homemade rooibos-chai sugar scrub. An eco-friendly gift idea for Mother’s Day that will last her for a while!
4. For the chocoholics
These decadent Oreo truffles are far better than buying store-bought choccies for your mom. Bonus: they’re easy to make and don’t break the bank.
5. For the sweet tooths
These buttery shortbread cookies are beautifully balanced with a creamy granadilla filling. You might want to make a double batch of these! Get the recipe here.

Treat your mom with breakfast in bed this Mother’s Day! These moreish pancakes are topped with a vibrant raspberry jam made from scratch.
