If you are sending a Gourmet Christmas Hamper in the UK and Europe this year, then Basketsgalore is confident that we can do you proud and ensure that the recipient talks gushingly of your excellent taste in food.
It can be difficult to convey the quality premium online, but the proof is in the testimonials we receive. The Great Taste Awards are the Oscars of the Food World and our Christmas hamper selections are littered with Award Winners. There’s even a range of hampers made up exclusively of winners with the Silver, Gold and Platinum editions.
A Basketsgalore Christmas Hamper is distinguished from all other Christmas hampers because the core hamper product is broken down into key advantages thus offering an ever increasing complexity of pleasure for the shopper.
We made the decision many years ago that when creating Christmas Hampers and Christmas Gift Baskets our main focus is going to be good quality food over alcohol and wine. There were many good thoughtful reasons for this decision. While wine is nice and good it is often unfortunately very expensive by the time it gets to the gifting stage, whereas food can be offered at a much more reasonable price. However, our decision was not fully financial. Not only can good quality food be enjoyed by all, but we have found that it is more often sought out in Christmas hampers over wine and other alcoholic products.
Gourmet Christmas Hampes focus on their quality food items above all else. A Gourmet Christmas Hamper is more than just a Christmas hamper with salmon or cooked ham, although a lot of our Gourmet Christmas Hampers do include salmon and ham if that is what you are looking for. What makes the Gourmet Christmas Hamper range so special is the way the individual food items work together in each hamper to produce a Christmas hamper in each case that is original and special.
Some of our Gourmet Christmas Hampers contain alcohol in the form of wine or prosecco and others do not. This was a conscious well thought out decision on our part. We knew our Gourmet Christmas Gift Hampers should focus on food. When we thought of a Gourmet Christmas Gift we thought of food, not alcohol, so we knew food had to be the main focus of this range. However we also knew that some people like to give a bottle or two with their gifts while others do not. This is why we offer both options at varying price points.
All the Gourmet Christmas foods as well as any bottles of wine in our hampers are full sized. We know it is sometimes tricky to shop online, never sure if the image being displayed is misleading or truthful. We assure you that all our products are full sized gourmet products, we do not use sample sized products. We often hear from past and repeating customers that they received more and better value for their money than they were expecting in their Christmas Hampers!
As well as hand packing our hampers in house we locally source our products mainly from Ireland and across the UK and Europe to ensure that we have the very best artisan gourmet products for you while at the same time supporting small producers.
