Presentation
If you really want to wow someone when you give them a gift, then it’s not just about the contents–it’s about the overall presentation. Whether it’s all wrapped up in a bow or neatly arranged in an appealing basket, presentation is the cherry on top of any gift. Many premade gift baskets are known for their beautiful presentations.
Variety
Digging through a gift basket and discovering the goodies inside is just as fun as enjoying the treats themselves. Variety really elevates a gift basket from good to great. Well-rounded gift baskets could include dried meats, cheeses, gourmet snacks, candies, nuts, and fruit mixes. Even if you select a specialty gift basket, you can look for variety. For example, if you’re sending someone a chocolate lover’s basket, you can look for different flavors or types of chocolates. There could be sal...
Freshness
Stale cookies are sad, especially when they're supposed to be a gift for someone—that’s why freshness is so important when it comes to perishable gift baskets. Typically, fresh baked goods are made only a day or two before being wrapped up and shipped in a gift basket. With next day or same-day shipping, your goods should still arrive fresh and tasty. Keep an eye out for shipping expectations when ordering.
How are gift baskets shipped?
Each retailer will have a different shipping process. That said, most gift baskets with perishable items are often shipped with ice packs or on refrigerated trucks within a few days of ordering. Additionally, most baskets come in some form of, well, basket. Wicker or woven baskets are common, but other options include wooden boxes or plastic tubs. Items may be nestled among package filling (like crinkle paper) or individually wrapped to ensure freshness and cleanliness.
What are the most popular types of gift baskets?
There is an incredible variety of gift baskets available. Popular gift baskets include snacks and foods, wine and cheese, gourmet candies and chocolate, holiday-themed sets, spa care, or a mix of items.
How can I customize a gift basket?
Many retailers allow customizable options. Some may let you swap out a few items for something else, add on extras, include a personalized gift message, or even embroider names onto items. Check for customization options in your online order.
