11 best gifts from Oprah's 2022 Favourite Things list that you can buy in Canada
While trends come and go, my revere for Oprah remains eternal. Despite "The Oprah Winfrey Show" wrapping more than a decade ago, Oprah was, is, and will continue to be my no.1 celebrity draft pick.
Therefore, it should surprise no one (least of all my mother, who watched me cry alongside thousands of Edmontonians when Oprah visited in 2013) that I live for Oprah's annual Favourite Things list.
In its 2022 edition, fellow Oprah fans can find more than 100 gift ideas, including those in the wellness, tech, and food categories. The only problem? Many of Oprah's top picks aren't available in Canada.
Therefore, I took it as my personal responsibility to narrow down her list to the 11 best options you can buy in Canada. With gifts starting at less than $100, scroll below to shop my 11 top choices from Oprah's 2022 Favourite Things list.

Add the decadent flavour of truffle to every dish with the Truff Starter Pack. The three-piece kit includes the brand's Original Hot Sauce, Black Truffle Oil, and Black Truffle Salt.
What Oprah says: “I dare you to find a better hot sauce. Truff’s black truffle hot sauce is one of the most-used condiments in my house—it’s been on my list many times! This set includes my go-to, along with black truffle oil and truffle salt. Yum!”
Clevr Blends The Holiday Starter Kit
Transform your daily latte habit into a good-for-you routine with this fan-favourite kit from Clevr Blends. The latte blends are formulated with adaptogens and mushrooms to support stress, energy and mood.
What Oprah says: “This woman-led wellness brand is beloved by my neighbour Meghan—and I’m a big fan, too! The set comes with an energizing chai blend and a nighttime blend that tastes like hot cocoa. There’s even a frother included, so you feel like you’re getting a coffee shop latte at home.”

What Oprah says: “Picture this: You pour yourself a nice glass of chilled wine. But pretty soon, it’s warm. This crafty little device solves that problem. Keep the cradle in the freezer until you pour your wine into a stemless glass, which you place in the cradle to keep your wine crisp from first sip to last.”
Bona Furtuna Taste of Trapani
A food lover's dream come true, this 100 per cent organic artisan gift set includes Ancient Grain Busiate Pasta, Original Pasta Sauce, Sea Salt and Herb Blend, and Dried Basil.
What Oprah says: “Just outside of Corleone, Sicily, is Bona Furtuna, an organic farm that promotes sustainable farming and heritage food. This beautiful set includes busiate pasta, marinara sauce and herbs—so you’re essentially giving the gift of a hearty Italian dinner.”
Girlfriend Collective Compressive Pocket Legging
Compressive, squat-proof, and ultra high-rise, these compressive leggings come in five colours and sizes XXS to 6XL.
What Oprah says: “The husband-and-wife team behind Girlfriend Collective (Gayle, a huge fan, told me about them) is making activewear more inclusive with this design that comes in sizes XS to 6XL. The pieces are sweat-wicking, high-compression, and high-waisted, and 79 per cent of the fabric is made from recycled plastic bottles.”
Paravel Fold-Up Backpack
This ultra-lightweight, compact backpack is the perfect carry-on for travelling, trips to the gym, hiking, and more. The bag is made from water-resistant nylon and folds flat into a barely-there pouch.
What Oprah says: “Made from 15 upcycled plastic water bottles fashioned into lightweight, water-resistant nylon, its party trick is that it can fold up into a zippable pouch you can stow away in your luggage, so you have an extra bag.”
