These black owned brands on Amazon make fantastic gifts as well as they are wide ranging enough to please almost everybody on your list, from fashion lovers to foodies.

Let’s start with the black owned brands for the foodies.

The Cookie Kahuna

Everybody knows about Famous Amos cookies but do you know about the Cookie Kahuna from the same creator, Wally Amos? Mr. Amos even appeared on Season 8 of Shark Tank to seek funding for these newer brand of cookies.

Naturalicious

This one is for the natural hair enthusiasts looking for a product for curls.
