Food Gift Hamper Ideas

- Cheeses, crackers and wine
- Biltong, nuts, and craft beer
- Dried fruit, nuts, and chocolate
- Cookies, soft toffees, nougat, and fudge
- Champagne and cherries with chocolate truffles
- Olive oil, balsamic, dukkah, olives with fresh bread
- Brightly coloured seasonal fruit with pineapple centerpiece
The choice depends on your recipient: beer gift baskets might go well with dudes, champagne gift hampers for a company’s executive workforce, and choccies and cookies gift baskets also works fantastically for a mother’s day gift. Gift basket hampers are also great gifts for those that are difficult to buy for
- Wine gifts paired with complimenting cheeses make for a safe yet appealing variation
- Dried fruit, nuts and seeds the safest option for potential vegans, as wine can be processed using animal products
- Add a salami stick and/or biltong to the mix for good ol’ meatatarians and you have a magnificent gift for any South African
- If you’re not sure if the person drinks alcohol, there are also some great virgin G&Ts and flavoured cordials on the local market
Yummy food and drinks baskets are always a delight to receive and following these tips will leave you looking and feeling very thoughtful indeed.
Custom Delicious Gift Baskets
Personalised to any person’s individual taste, customising your gift is also a great way of showing that your appreciation for the individual, so be sure to try and find out what your recipients preferences and likes are before putting in your order. You could always add something personal to your gift basket like a framed photo or embroidered tea towel. This alone will show the recipient that you have taken the time to incorporate that little something extra.
