The Today Show offered up some fun Father’s Day gift ideas.  They had some great ideas for the outdoor cook, the dad with a sweet tooth and your Sports loving father.

You can get custom made cookies and gourmet ice cream, for the healthy conscious dad- a basket of gourmet health foods and even some Salt and Pepper Shakers for the baseball lover.  Here are some of their food inspired gifts for dad:

For the dad on-the-go
Is your dad a jet-setter or road warrior? Add a smile to his daily commute with clever coffee mugs that say “Don’t Make Me Stop This Car” and “Are We There Yet?” Both travel mugs hold 14 oz. $18; wrapables.com

For the healthy dad
Health-conscious dads will appreciate these healthy gift baskets for all occasions. The gift baskets contain healthy, gourmet foods appropriate for particular health concerns, allergies and dietary restrictions. Wellbaskets.com caters to the health-conscious gourmet as well as those new to the world of healthful eating. For example, Dad’s Delight ($65) and Heart Healthy Father’s Day Snacker ($35) are filled with healthy gourmet snacks. wellbaskets.com

For the sweetest dad
Spell out your love and appreciation for dad this year with cookies from Eleni’s New York. Packaged in a brown-and-pink Eleni’s signature gift box, this set includes 18 hand-iced sugar cookies: 10 hearts and eight letters spelling out “I Love Dad” ($37.50). elenis.com

For the ice-cream-loving dad
Create custom, gourmet ice cream and gelato flavors from more than 60 flavor options and ship overnight anywhere in the continental U.S. Even choose your own flavor name and packaging. Custom orders start at $49.99 plus $34 overnight shipping for a half-gallon (arrives in four pints). eCreamery.com

For the grill-loving dad
Dad will love a collegiate branding iron for grilling and putting his college alum on his steaks! Go team! The Grill Topper is a ceramic-coated, cast-iron barbecue grilling surface that will sear collegiate team logos onto grilled meats — perfect for the backyard BBQ chef, and a must-have for sports tailgating. The Model 1311 (large) retails for $49.99; the Model 550 (small) retails for $24.99; thegrilltopper.com

For the dad who is a great sport
Here’s a gift that will be a big hit! Spice up your food with this Cole & Mason King Peppermill Baseball Bat novelty peppermill. It’s 28 inches long and made out of beechwood with a carbon-steel grinding mechanism. $50; target.com

For the cool dad
Check out the RC Cooler, a remote-controlled cooler from Interactive Toy Concepts. Dad will never leave his chair again — just let the remote-controlled cooler deliver the drinks for him. Holds up to 12 drinks with ice, has a range of over 30 feet. Runs on six C batteries and a 9-volt battery for the controller. About $70; solutions.com
