Jale January 22, 2021

From bakers to brewers to winemakers, it’s more important than ever to continue supporting our local Australian producers. At Gourmet Basket, we work directly with Aussie companies to bring our customers the best artisan goods from around the country.

We’ve put together this list to highlight some of the top Australian artisan producers and their products. Have a look and discover your new favourite snacks, sweets, and home goods — all locally made in Australia.

Fudge by Rich

With its origins in Victoria’s Yarra Valley, Fudge by Rich makes delicious homemade treats, including fudge and brittle. The company’s fudge is available in decadent flavours such as cookies and cream, chocolate macadamia, and creamy Kahlua. In our Chocolates and Red gift hamper, you’ll get Fudge by Rich’s chocolate and walnut fudge, alongside a bottle of D’Arenberg The Footbolt Shiraz and several other sugary snacks.

Maya Sunny Honey

Maya Sunny Honey is based in the Mudgee region of New South Wales and produces 100% raw honey for customers around Australia. The company offers a variety of honey flavours, including eucalyptus, lavender, and truffle. You can find Maya Sunny Honey’s raw macadamia crunch honey featured in Gourmet Basket’s Chinese New Year Season of Prosperity Hamper.

Bizzarri Dolci

If you’re looking for a more savoury snack, Bizzarri Dolci has just what you need. With a selection of handmade biscuits, including peppery cheddars, lavosh, and spiced nuts, Bizzarri Dolci’s products are the perfect addition to any cheese board or snack plate. Our Sweet Love Cheese Platter includes two types of biscuits from the Melbourne-based company.

Rinaldi Confectionery

Based in South Australia, Rinaldi Confectionery relies heavily on Italian tradition to craft delectable honey nougat in soft and firm varieties. The business uses Australian nuts and honey to create an authentic taste without any glucose syrup. As a result, Rinaldi’s nougat is gluten-free. You can find the company’s soft honey nougat with macadamia in our Gluten-Free Mini Hamper.

With its elegant packaging and high-quality ingredients, Zokoko Artisan Chocolates is one of Australia’s leading chocolatiers. Zokoko combines art and science to craft a range of indulgent chocolate products, including organic cocoa powder, cocoa nibs, and its flagship “bean to bar” chocolate. Many Gourmet Basket gift hampers include sweets from Zokoko, including our Shaken Essentials Copper Cocktail Hamper.

Gumnut

As an Australian company with European influences, Gumnut creates an impressive range of sweet treats, including truffles and chocolates handcrafted in Sydney. The business also makes other gourmet delights, including shortbread, biscuits, and biscotti. You’ll find Gumnut’s raspberry and pistachio chocolate bark in our Luxury Selection gift hamper.

Port Willunga Fine Foods

With strong roots in South Australia, Port Willunga Fine Foods is a family-owned company that produces fresh and flavourful nibbles that fit perfectly on any cheese platter. PWFF sources local fruit, nuts, spices, and more, to make its unique products. Order Gourmet Basket’s Isolation Essentials Hamper to get a bag of the company’s salted pistachios.

These incredible companies only represent a sample of the artisan producers in Australia. We also work with businesses like Ogilvie & Co., Whisk & Pin, Random Harvest, and Urban Rituelle to create unforgettable hampers for our customers and their loved ones.
