This unique Australian gift – Lucas Paw Paw Ointment – is a well known favourite among Australians and makes a wonderful gift to share with friends or family overseas.

Allens Snakes Alive is a childhood favourite of Australians no matter where in the world they’re currently living.

But if you’re looking for ideas, these are always popular and make a terrific gift to take overseas with you.

#12 AUSSIE TREAT FOR OVERSEAS – KOALA CHOCOLATE GIFT TIN

Aussie Koala Chocolates Gift Tin

While it isn’t a childhood classic, we like this as a unique Australian gift for overseas because it’s packaged in a lovel keepsake koala gift tin.

(And the chocolates are pretty yummy too!).

Enjoy.

 

#11 AUSTRALIAN TREAT FOR OVERSEAS – MAGGIE BEER FIG AND FENNEL PASTE

Maggie Beer Fig & Fennel Paste

While this may not seem like a ‘classic’ aussie treat, Maggie Beer’s name is synonymous with Australian cuisine.

It’s also not readily available on supermarket shelves in Tesco or Costco!

For that reason, we think it makes a pretty good Australian gift to take overseas that is something a little bit different.

#10 AUSSIE GIFT TO TAKE OVERSEAS – LEMON CITRUS SUITCASE SCENT

This sweet box shaped like a suitcase with Australian stickers on it makes a very sweet gift.

#2 AUSSIE TREATS TO TAKE OVERSEAS – VEGEMITE

Vegemite Australian classic treat to send overseas

 

Australian Vegemite – people either love it or hate it.

That’s Australian people we mean.

From our experience, most overseas guests don’t like it. So for that reason, it’s never going to be #1 on our list for Aussie treats to take overseas.

However – we can’t deny that it IS a much loved classic for Aussies, so it makes it into the second most popular in our list of Aussie treats to take overseas with you.
