Food gift basket
Food gift baskets contain a variety of foods to tease the taste buds of that special recipient. One can enjoy fruit baskets, samplers, black tea, green or herbal tea, cured and dried beef, pork, chicken, and lamb. For the seafood lover there are baskets full of lobster, dried and smoked fish, caviar, roes, shrimp, and prawns. An all-time favorite is the cheese and sausage combination.
Despite its smaller stature, England produces an exciting lot of varied, distinctly artisan foods that go perfectly in the food gift basket. Try Royal Blue Stilton, the king of blue cheeses which should be served with walnuts and figs. Sample the wonderful pub cheese, Cotswold, which is mixed with scallion and chives for a smashing good flavor. What good would English cheese be without the famous tea from East India Tea Company? It goes wonderfully with scones and clotted cream cheese.
Italian foods are dynamic, diverse, delicious, and partner well with food gift baskets. From Sicily to Milan to Tuscany this southern European country delivers some of the world’s favorite gourmet delights. A sample might include sliced prosciutto which is a succulent, fruity, cured ham. To go along with the prosciutto nothing is more perfect than Mountain Gorgonzola, Lombardy’s famous blue cheese.
