Food Jellycats are the best Jellycats! They combine two concepts we all love – cuddly toys and food. What’s not to like!
Food Jellycats come in all shapes and sizes and look almost good enough to eat!
Food Jellycats: An Overview
From sushi and cupcakes to fruits and vegetables (it’s important to get your 5-a-day in somewhere!), each food and drink Jellycat is crafted with meticulous attention to detail. The vibrant colours and playful designs make them great presents for both children and adults.
If you haven’t already guessed, here at Gift & Home, we’re Jellycat obsessed. We have Greater Manchester’s best selection of Jellycats, with hundreds to choose from, both in-store at our shop in Altrincham town centre and online.
Why are food Jellycats so good?
Here are three more reasons why food Jellycats are so good:
- Cuteness Overload! Food-themed Jellycats are irresistibly cute. Their quirky and unique designs, such as a smiling avocado or a cheerful slice of pizza, make great birthday or Christmas presents. This cuteness appeals to both children and adults, making them perfect gifts for any occasion. The combination of food and cuddles creates a unique set of toys that are hard to resist!
- Encouraging Imaginative Play! These toys inspire imaginative play, allowing children to create their own foodie-based adventures. They’re great for boosting kids’ creativity, with them pretending to cook, serve and eat with their unique toys. As we all know, this type of play is crucial for cognitive development while they’re little; what could be more imaginative than an avocado with legs?!
- Collectibility! It’s not just kids that get to have all the fun! Jellycats are ridiculously popular with adults, too, because of their collectability. With a wide range of options available, from classic foods like burgers and fries to more exotic items like sushi, collectors can enjoy building their own unique assortment. The special releases all add something different. And with the Jellycat craze only set to continue, you could be sitting on a goldmine in a few years time!

But back to our foodie Jellycats. Are you looking for the perfect Jellycat gift and unsure which one to pick? With our extensive (and slightly excessive 😂) knowledge, we’ve picked our top five food Jellycats.
It’s always tricky picking Jellycat favourites (we always say it’s like trying to choose between your favourite children!) so this definitely isn’t an exhaustive list. Check out our full range if you’d like but brace yourself, there’s lots to choose from!
So without further ado, let’s get straight into our top five and find out which food-based Jellycats have made it into our top five shortlist…
Food Jellycats: Our Top 5
Number 5: Fabulous Fruit Banana Jellycat
There’s no banana drama here! In fact, our banana jellycat is so laid back that he’s practically horizontal! With his stretchy golden fur and dapper brown stalk, he’s an ideal gift for children or adults.
This banana is a proper smiler, too! As with all Jellycats, Fabulous Fruit Banana passes the European Safety Standard for kids of all ages, meaning this is suitable to give as a gift from birth.
Number 4: Amusable Baguette Jellycat
This food Jellycat has a certain je ne sais quoi! Our Amusable Baguette Jellycat is a big favourite in our Altrincham shop and it’s easy to see why. This fancy Frenchman is fresh out of the oven and is deliciously soft and huggable. He has chunky cord shoes and an adorable little smile.
This Amusable Jellycat also lives up to its name because it’s very ‘amusing’ when you look at him from the back. He looks like a regular baguette! 
Number 3: Amusable Bagel Jellycat
We’re sticking on the bread theme for our number 3 in the list of our top 5 favourite food Jellycats. On the podium is Amusable Bagel. He’s a proper crowd pleaser and again, one of the best sellers in our shop.
With soft, huggable fur and a salmon and cream cheese filling, he’s definitely one of our most eye-catching plushies! His little brown cord arms are just SO cute.
His look is completed with sesame seeds on top to add that extra layer of authenticity.
Number 2: Amusable Boiled Egg Geek Jellycat
Now things are getting interesting! Narrowly missing out on the top spot is Amusable Boiled Egg Geek.
A perfect buddy for exam season, he could be a great gift for someone about to take on their GCSE or A Level exams. Exams are never easy, but this little guy could make studying that little bit more bearable!
His soft cream and yellow fur makes him extra huggable. We also love his glasses, which are a very unique Jellycat feature! He also has an incredibly strong shoe game, with his red suede trainers being the envy of all the other Jellycats.
As with all Jellycats, we’d advise carefully checking the care label once bought to make sure how to best look after him. Amusable Boiled Egg Geek is one of our more durable Jellycats, meaning he can be cleaned on a 30 degree Celsius wash in a washing machine. However, he isn’t suitable for tumble drying or dry cleaning – you wouldn’t want him to get scrambled!
But who’s landed our top spot and become our favourite food Jellycat? We’re about to reveal all…
Number 1: Amusable Sandwich Jellycat
The top three has been incredibly close, but number 1 goes to Amusable Sandwich. He’s a packed lunch pall bursting with colour! Based on a ploughman’s sandwich, his fillings include lettuce, tomato and cheese.
Fuzzy, soft bread cut adorably into triangles is the basis of his look, with the fillings almost exploding out of him.
His cutesy little smile and little cord brown boots make him hard to dislike. He’s all prepped for a picnic or a hike, ready to go whenever you are!
Suitable to be given as a gift to those of all ages, Amusable Sandwich is a very worthy winner and takes the top spot in our top five food Jellycats shortlist.
