Buying Prepared Baskets

If you’d rather buy a wine gift basket pre packaged, stop into your local liquor store to see if they have a selection available. Liquor outlets will often sell gift baskets, especially during the holiday times. You’ll be able to choose the wine you’d like to include in the basket and then add additional products.

Shop Online

The internet is a great place to order customizable gift baskets. Begin by choosing a bottle or two of wine, then start adding additional products from the range of food and accessories. Complementary products could include smoked salmon and caviar, savory crackers or cheese crackers, soft or hard cheeses, cheese knives, nuts, exclusive mustards or honey … there’s no limit to what you can add to them.

The online company will then deliver the packaged gift basket to you or directly to the gift recipient. This is a very easy option if you are searching for a corporate gift or as a thank-you to a staff member.

Make Your Own Gift Baskets

Making your own wine gift basket gives allows you to add that extra personal touch. Start by buying a pretty basket. You don’t need an expensive basket because you can decorate it yourself with fabric, paper or flowers. Buy your wine of choice or choose champagne for a special celebration, add some extra items depending on the preferences of the gift recipient. For example, you don’t need to limit your basket to wine and wine-themed gifts. You could include handicrafts for someone interested in arts and crafts, or a book about wine for a wine lover who is also interested in the history or the making of wine. Select some gourmet delights to accompany the wine, pack everything into the decorated basket and wrap it all up in clear cellophane.

If possible, personally deliver the gift basket to the recipient so you can see the joy when they receive it. If you’re very lucky they may share the bottle of wine with you.

For the non-wine drinker you can still put together a stunning gift basket. For a coffee lover you could try a themed gift basket that might include coffee mugs, single origin coffee beans from different coffee-growing areas, gourmet cookies, toffees and nuts. A tea drinker may like to receive a selection of teas from different regions, a teapot and strainer and a fine china teacup. A tea or coffee gift basket could, in fact, be packed onto a well-decorated tray instead that a basket. Again, wrap the entire package in clear cellophane and tie a ribbon around it.

The ideas for gourmet gift baskets are only limited by your imagination.
