Ok quick background: I took Italian beginners in first semester at uni, and seeing as I’ll probably never see her again (my tutor I mean), I’d like to give a gift of some kind. At first I thought I could make these chocolates in a gift box, but then I thought what if she’s allergic to certain foods? She’s been such a great motivator basically throughout semester, and I really want to give something back for her efforts. She’s in her 30s (a guess) and she has a young daughter so I’d like to give something that will suit someone of her background..

Are there maybe traditional Italian customs for gift giving? (she’s Italian) It’d be great if I can get some ideas. Thanks!
ps I’m NOT in the States, so stores like Hallmark are out of the question!
I don’t know her on a personal level to know what restaurant she likes/dislikes, hence me asking here…
I won’t get the chance to “have a chat” due to busy schedule in the coming semester unfortunately, only time for quick visit.
