The Custom of Giving Gourmet Gift Baskets

One of the biggest holidays of the year is just 2 days away and yet there’s still time to make an emergency call to your local Toronto florist to order your Christmas flowers and gift baskets. That’s right! As one of the most experienced florists in the city, we know that there will be plenty of people who have left their Christmas shopping to the last minute, so we’ve stocked up to help out those frantically trying to shop for everyone on their list. We still have plenty of fresh flowers and bountiful baskets filled with fruit, candies and gourmet treats.

Why not? It’s a tradition that has survived through more than a couple of centuries. The act of giving food as a present is not only practical – it’s also a welcome change from the usual flowers (or socks) that some of us receive. Think about it: gourmet gift baskets are really just edible presents that are arranged in a basket so that they can be transported easily. And since nobody wants to give something ugly, the treats are arranged attractively with decorations to add beauty. Voila!

Candy Gift Baskets

Forget about those healthy fruit baskets and nut selections we’ve been talking about – it’s time to turn our attention to sweet, sugar laden treats!

Okay, it’s not the healthiest of gifts, but Candy Gift Baskets sure appeal to a wider audience than sensible fruit baskets, don’t you think? That crinkly and colourful packaging harking back to your childhood, the crisp foil covering each sugary morsel, the huge variety of tastes tantalizing the tongue – the holiday season is a time to let loose a little and succumb to the lure of candy. You (or someone you know) have candythunderhad cravings all year and faithfully stuck to your diet.  Now is the time to give in to temptation and live a little!

All of our Candy Gift Baskets are packed full of treats, literally overflowing at the brim. They’ve got chocolate bars, hard candy, jelly beans, caramel and tons more. Know your friend loves a particular chocolate bar and want to make sure they get it? Just let us know by filling out the Special Instructions Box at the time of ordering online. Since all of our Candy Gift Baskets are assembled in-house, our designers can tailor each order to your specifications. You can also call us and order over the phone.

You have 4 days until Christmas. Fortunately, there’s still time to order your Candy Gift Basket. Do it today and still get your order by the 25th.
