Edible & Portable Souvenirs from Ireland

[Ylee]

I noticed no one has listed Muck 'n' Muffins in Dunfanaghy, Co. Donegal, so I thought I'd mention them - it's a cute little pottery studio/coffee shop run by two sisters who do all the pottery. Worth checking out if in the area.

How about Northern Ireland? Any gifts specific to this region?

Cheers!

Much of what is traditional in southern Ireland is also traditional in Northern Ireland. Look out for dulse (a type of seaweed) in cheese and crackers and also carrageen moss for making some traditional desserts. Potato farls are also a big thing in the north, but I don't know how well they'd travel.

And of course there is Bushmills malt whiskey.
