Our Favourite Birthday Gift Baskets

Matthew August 31, 2017

Birthdays aren’t just for little kids. We might be too old for clowns and birthday hats, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want a special gift on our special day. Here at Gourmet Baskets, we have more than 60 birthday gift hampers, and if you still don’t find something your loved one would enjoy, we can customise a gift basket to suit their taste.

Even if coffee isn’t your loved one’s cup of tea, you can win them over with birthday gift baskets filled with cookies, melting moments, jam, and two distinct sets of assorted gourmet tea. It also includes a glass teapot and glass tea cups for that extra touch of class.

If your loved one is the indoorsy kind, who’d rather spend their birthday curled up with a good book, gift them champagne and scented candles to make their evening even more relaxed. This gift works equally well as a hint that birthdays should be more intimate.

With all this cheese and chocolatey goodness, you might wonder whether we cater for special diets. As it turns out, we have a couple of gluten-free gift baskets that will tickle your taste buds without triggering your allergies. Or try our Paleo cookbook hamper with its gluten-free, sugar-free recipes. It offers fast food with a twist: healthy meals in 30 minutes or less!

Perhaps you’re looking for a gift that keeps on giving. The kind of birthday present that you – the giver – can claim bragging rights to for years to come. How about a decanter kit? It has a carafe, a stopper, two tumblers, and bottle of 12-year-old Johnny Walker Black Label.

The drink will probably be gone in a night, but whenever he shows off his classy whisky gear to guests, you can proudly say it came from you. Alternatively, you could order a 12-year-old Glenfiddich, though it comes with chocolate instead of glass.

For the foodie that loves to cook (rather than the one that just loves to eat), a TV Chef recipe book hamper never goes wrong. You can go with Maggie Beer, Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson, or Donna Hay. Each hamper has sweet treats you can nibble while you cook.

Scent can trigger powerful memories, so while you might not get those warm cookies their grandma used to bake, you can whiff your way into their hearts with an Aromatic gift hamper. With gorgeous lemongrass candles and hand wash scented with soothing bergamot, you can generate a whole new chain of pleasant thoughts.

What if you want a birthday treat for yourself? Order a Celebration for one, and you can gorge guilt-free on red wine, liquorice, pistachios, caramel fudge, and melting moments. We’ll wrap your birthday gift in gorgeous Gourmet Baskets packaging to make your day extra special.

However you’d like to celebrate that special one’s birthday, give us a shout on 1300 354 393, and we’ll put together the perfect gift.
