The celebrity chef kicked off the holiday season by putting a basket full of festive goodies on sale.

And despite the hefty price tag, the hampers have completely sold out.

The hamper also includes a tipple to take the edge off in the form of a bottle of 2022 Poggiotondo Chianti red wine.

But there are also some more obscure, miscellaneous items.

Buyers will receive a jar filled with pepper powder and another stuffed with mixed nuts.

There is also a jar of chickpeas and a jar of korma paste.

A wooden spoon is also included, as reported by What’s The Jam.
