Giving gifts to the Stardew Valley characters lets you slowly befriend them. In return for your kindness, you'll receive recipes, presents in the mail, new cutscenes and, in some cases, marriage.
Knowing the right gift is important though, because, if you give a Stardew Valley resident something they don't like, you'll actually lose friendship points with them. (And quite a lot if you're really not careful.) For this reason, it's really worth knowing all of the loved and liked gifts for every Stardew Valley character.
Yet, there's 34 characters in Stardew Valley who you can give gifts to and an awful lot of items to choose from - you really can't be expected to remember everybody's favourite now can you? So, to help you out, we've listed all of the loved and liked gifts for all of the Stardew Valley characters down below! We've also taken a look at the universal loved items too.
On this page:
Below you'll find the loved and liked gifts for every character in Stardew Valley, along with how to get the gifts. (Though we haven't included every method to keep this page at a somewhat reasonable length. Somewhat.)
Keep in mind they will accept any gift you offer them - even the ones they don't like - so, if you're unsure about a present, it's best to check whether a character actually likes it. This is especially important when remembering that you can only give a character two gifts per week, so every present counts.
A loved gift will earn you 80 friendship points, while a liked one nets you 45 points. The amount of friendship points you earn will also be increased if it's the character's birthday, so we've included those dates!

Universal loved gifts refer to a small collection of items which, if you haven't guessed by the term, every Stardew Valley character is guaranteed to love. This means handing them over will always result in you gaining 80 friendship points with that character. The only exception is the Stardrop Tea which will reward you with 250 friendship points, which equals a whole heart!
The downside is that universal loved gifts are rare items and some (looking at you Prismatic Shard) have a number of other uses that can tempt you away from handing them over to a character. Due to this, it's worth carefully considering who - and whether you should - give a universal gift to.
To help you out, here are all of the universal gifts in Stardew Valley and how to find them:
| Universal Loved Gifts | How To Get |
|---|---|
| Golden Pumpkin | Complete Spirit's Eve maze Artifact Troves Mystery Boxes Golden Mystery Boxes |
| Magic Rock Candy | Desert Trader - 3 Prismatic Shards on Thursday Raccoon's Wife Shop for 20 Golden Mystery Boxes Donate 90 items to Museum Desert Festival for 250 Calico Eggs Prize Machine Mystery Boxes Golden Mystery Boxes Defeat Haunted Skulls |
