Party pizza (fits in your carry-on with absolutely no mess)

Packages of Del's

Pizza chips!

Autocratic coffee syrup. Del's Frozen Lemonade Mix. New York System Hot Dog chili spice mix. (both of the last two should be available at Frog and Toad). If free on a Saturday the Winter Farmer's Market had lots of choices.

Solid recommendations, thanks! I plan to visit Frog and Toad.

Chips and pizza sound like a winning combo.

I’ll have to get some party pizza while I’m in town! 🍅 And Del’s seems like a must-get. Thank you!

Anchor Toffee (at the Farm Fresh RI building on Simms Ave). While there you can also get some baked goods from Wright's farm at their Ice Cream shop.

If you're flying out of TF Green you can buy Autocrat Syrup and Narragansett beer after security.

Get you a packet of hot wiener sauce mix powder, because it is delicious and hilarious.

Dave’s and Bolt have a good variety of coffee you can buy. Great stuff. Quonnie is great at Dave’s and Bolt usually has good holiday roasts. Just depends what you like. (Dave’s also sells coffee syrup…unique but like some of the other recs is not always a slam dunk…dels mix is not as good as the real thing).

If I have a free bag to check in I will just bring an empty one just in case to bring stuff back. Usually I fly south west which has two free bags so I put a filled smaller luggage inside a larger one so it's easier to handle.

Autocrat or eclipse coffee syrup is great and has a long shelf life. Some places will also have Dave's Coffee syrup which is also great and made from real sugar instead of corn syrup. Pizza strips should be fine for a flight since they are kept at room temperature anyway, I took some to Seattle once myself. Try Clamcakes while you're here if you like them they sell the mix for the batter so you can make them yourself at home. Biscotti, egg and wine biscuits from local Italian bakeries also travel well.

Just fair warning not sure why they said no mess, they are kind of greasy so make sure you pack it well in several plastic bags to protect other contents in your luggage.

can't go wrong with a box of Kenyon's Johnny Cake mix

I’ll be on the lookout!

I figured it was said tongue-in-cheek. 😆

Saw Bolt in RISD area. Will pop in!

Cheers to cake!

Awesome reccs! I’ll be on the hunt.

Awesome! I’ll be flying out of TF Green, so I can save some space until after getting through security.

There is a little Rhode Island/Providence gift shop at the TF Green Airport (if you fly into there instead of Boston) that has most of the things mentioned in this post. I got some coffee syrup and hot wiener sauce packet as gifts the last time I visited my hometown.

It's not cake, they're basically pancakes but made out of boiled cornmeal. Way better than it sounds, but you need good butter and real maple syrup to eat them with.

Even better, I love anything with cornmeal.
