Gourmet food and wine

Giving gourmet food and wine baskets is an easy gift to give on a number of special days, but those who give these gifts on unexpected occasions might make the gifts extra special.

While gourmet food and wine baskets are popular gifts to give on holidays like New Year’s, Valentine’s Day or Christmas, there are other special occasions that are often overlooked that could warrant giving these baskets. For example:

• Housewarming – Some of the nicest gifts that can be given to a new neighbor are gourmet food and wine baskets. The kind of basket a person gives might depend on the kind of home the recipient is moving into.

If the home has a European feel to it, then perhaps a basket with artisan honey, rich dark chocolate, French caramels, chocolate truffles, hand-rolled pastries, and butter cookies would be an excellent gift to welcome the new homeowner to the neighborhood.

• Promotion – If somebody is being promoted at work, perhaps a nice way to top off the new office is to have one of a variety of gourmet food and wine baskets waiting for them when they arrive.

An Italian gift basket is an excellent choice in this situation. These gift baskets could include sesame breadsticks, olive oil seasoning, tomatoes and sweet basil pasta sauce, tomatoes with hot pepper sauce and a decorative kitchen towel.
