This is one punny gift set, honey! It also has over 700 five-star ratings on Amazon, with customers noting how much they love the cute design as well as the added detail of the silver handle on the honey dipper.

Who among us hasn't Googled, "When is [insert Jewish holiday] this year?" This modern, minimalist Jewish wall art features illustrations and dates for the major holidays in the Hebrew calendar year 5784 — beginning with Rosh Hashanah and ending with Tu B'Av in 2024.

With Rosh Hashanah marking the start of the Jewish new year, a calendar is a practical gift for the holiday. This 16-month calendar (September 2023 through December 2024) from the Jewish Museum in Amsterdam lists US and Jewish holidays, Shabbat candle-lighting times, and even includes a list of Jewish holidays through the year 2037.

We've covered apples and pomegranates, but dates are another traditional fruit enjoyed on Rosh Hashanah. These dark chocolate-covered diced date bites have blood orange flavoring for even more fruit action. They're organic, vegan, and kosher.

Honey jars for Rosh Hashanah don't get better than this. Send this 'Book of Honey' from Savannah Bee Company to any loved ones who you can't see in person this year, to wish them "Shana Tova."

Pomegranates are another popular Rosh Hashanah symbol. Not only are they sweet, but their seeds are plentiful, much like the blessings we hope to receive in the upcoming year (or in some interpretations, the good deeds we'll do). Sure, you could gift the fruit, but we'll do you one better with this set of 2 adorable pomegranate containers that can hold salt and pepper, honey, and more.

Wish your loved ones Shana Tova with these sweet marzipan cookies. They're vegan, gluten-free, and certified kosher — and they might just be the cutest Rosh Hashanah treats we've ever seen.

The Marzipops Etsy shop has more than 450 five-star ratings, including this glowing review: "Gave this to my daughter in law the last time we visited. The presentation is obviously wonderful but she flipped on the taste...she told me I better leave a review and let everybody know how wonderful the marzipan cookies are. I will definitely buy them again...and again."

Many Jews celebrate Rosh Hashanah by dipping apple slices into honey, symbolically (and deliciously) ushering in a sweet new year. This honey tasting flight is a modern take on the tradition, making it a unique Rosh Hashanah gift.

The honey is sourced, crafted, and packaged in the USA and certified kosher.

For a playful spin on the traditional gift of honey, consider this bag of eight, 100% pure honey lollipops. The gourmet treats — which are certified kosher, handmade in the USA, and free from dyes, artificial flavors, and corn syrup — are delicious on their own, stirred into a cup of tea, or even in a cocktail. They come ready-to-gift in a fabric drawstring bag, but they're also individually wrapped, so you could easily split them up for smaller gifts given to friends or family members.

Another common tradition for many Jewish families is to serve a round challah on Rosh Hashanah. There are a number of symbolic reasons, including that the shape represents continuity, the circle of life, and the cycle of the seasons each year. While a round challah would be a welcomed gift, take it one step further by sending your loved one a round challah cover. This pretty option from Cape Town, South Africa-based Judaica brand Chai Modern can be used annually on the holiday as well as on other special occasions.

Another interpretation of why Jews eat round challah — often with raisins — on Rosh Hashanah is because we hope that the new year brings continued blessings and sweetness without interruption. What's even sweeter than raisin challah? This 2-pack of round cinnamon babka and round chocolate babka from Green's Kosher Bakery in Brooklyn. It ships fresh with 2-day delivery nationwide through Goldbelly.

"This is probably the BEST Cinnamon Babka we have ever eaten! Plus, it was delivered VERY fresh, almost like we walked into the bakery and picked it up. Appreciate that we can freeze some of it to enjoy at another time," writes one of many happy customers.
