Gourmet Gift Baskets

A gourmet gift basket conveys your appreciation in grand style. Show them how much you appreciate their business, thoughtfulness or their hard work! Have you ever inquired where the gift basket has its roots? Gift “hampers”, or baskets, became popular during the Victorian era in England. They were often filled with tea, coffee, biscuits, and other treats for family and friends. However the Victorian era didn’t just use hampers or baskets as a symbol of wealth. They also used a handmade wooden crate or a box. They were filled with treats and practical items as offers of appreciation to friends and family who were visiting. They could use these baskets of goodies and practical goods on their long journey home.
