10 Mother’s Day Gifts for Mom (That She Actually Wants)

If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that Mom deserves more than a mug and a "World’s Best" keychain this Mother’s Day. Whether she's a backyard entertainer, a culinary adventurer, or the queen of chill, we’ve rounded up our Burlington staff’s Top 10 Mother’s Day gift ideas to help you treat her right. From cozy patio accessories to gourmet grilling gear, these picks are perfect for saying “thanks for everything, Mom.”

1. Pizza Perfection

Give Mom the gift of better pizza. The Big Boy Circular Pizza Stone is the thickest and roundest 15" ceramic stone we've seen – ideal for crafting traditional, crispy pies right on the barbecue. Say goodbye to soggy frozen pizza. Say hello to gourmet, home-crafted, crusty perfection.

2. Hotter Than Mom’s One-Liners

For the Mom who can handle the heat, Fury’s lineup of small-batch, all-natural hot sauces is a fiery must-have. These handcrafted Canadian favourites were even crowned winners at the 2025 Canadian Choice Awards. Whether she’s spicing up eggs, tacos, or cocktails (yes, really), there’s a flavour here to turn up the heat in the best way.

3. Sips in Style

Danesco Stainless Steel Martini Glasses + Split Tree Cordials

A gift that says: “Mom, take a break – you’ve earned it.” Our stainless steel glasses keep drinks cool (and stylish), while the Split Tree Cordials add a handcrafted, Canadian-made touch to any cocktail. Choose from floral Lavender Lemon, bold Ginger Vanilla, or refreshing Raspberry Mint for a gift set that’s part mixology, part magic.

4. Patio Perfection Starts with Pillows

Outdoor throw pillows are a thoughtful, stylish way to show Mom you care – offering comfort, beauty, and a little pop of personality for her favourite outdoor spot. Whether she loves bold florals, calming neutrals, or playful patterns, a set of fresh pillows can instantly transform her patio into a cozy retreat. They’re the gift that keeps on giving – season after season.

5. Chop, Serve, Slay
Brander The Long Board Acacia Cutting Board

Whether she’s chopping herbs or laying out charcuterie, the Long Board does it all. Its acacia wood build is both durable and beautiful, making it a prep station by day and a serving platter by night. Great for the mom who loves to cook—and the one who just loves a good cheese board.

6. One Pot. Endless Possibilities.
Brander Stainless Steel Pot

Practical and versatile, this durable pot is perfect for barbecue use or stovetop simmering. With great heat retention and easy-to-carry side handles, it’s ideal for chili, boiled corn, or any one-pot wonder Mom likes to whip up.

7. Cooler Than Your Average Cooler

Upgrade her backyard hosting game with the Brander Craftsman Patio Cooler. With locking wheels, a built-in bottle opener, and a vintage-chic look, this cooler isn’t just functional—it’s a statement piece. It’ll keep drinks cold and compliments coming.

8. Glow Up the Night
Treasure Garden Halo Umbrella Light

When the sun sets, the party doesn’t have to end. This Halo Umbrella Light adds soft, glowing ambiance to any patio setting. Ideal for outdoor dinners, evening book reading, or quiet wine-sipping under the stars.

9. Flip It Good: Grill Tools She’ll Brag About
