Avocado items on Taobao
We all know that friend who’s obsessed with avocado toast. Their hashtag vocabulary comprises #avocadotoast, #avocado, #avotoast and nothing else, and “Anywhere with avocado toast” is their standard answer to “Where do you want to go for brunch?”.
So what do you get someone who’s already an expert in avocado for a special occasion like their birthday or Christmas? Avocado-related stuff, of course. From backpacks to phone cases, here are 15 affordable and mostly practical avocado-themed gifts you can get off Taobao.

A phone case is a great way to show off your personality since we Singaporeans spend most of our waking hours on our devices. Taobao has many avocado-themed options to choose from, but we love these two in particular.
The one with an attached pouch ($5) suitable for storing mini barang like cash and hair ties is perfect for that friend who’s always forgetting her stuff except her phone. And there’s one full of smiling avocados ($3.65) that’ll instantly brighten anyone’s day.
11. T-shirts and pullovers (from $11.45)

With these pullovers ($19.20 each) coming in 4 different avocado designs and 6 base colours (pink, white, yellow, red, green, and black), you have a whopping 24 options to choose from – more than enough for the whole squad, and even their plus-ones too.

There are also more hot weather-friendly options like these printed tees that show avocados engaging in various sports – such as doing a cardio workout ($11.45) or playing ball ($11.45).
