Here’s a how you can find a gift basket for any occasion:

  • Customization

The readymade baskets that you can find in the supermarket are great but nothing can compare to the joy of picking fruits yourself for the fruit basket. Apart from picking the fruits on your own, you can make the basket more attractive and tempting by adding some other gift items such as nuts, chocolates, cake, cookies, honey, green tea pack, etc. Try to choose healthy food items that complement fruits. Giving snacks and carbs along with fruits is a big NO.

  • Packing

You must look for a fruit basket that comes in attractive packaging. It enhances the appeal of your gift.  You can also pick a simple fruit basket and make additions in it to make it more attractive for the receiver. Packaging of the basket also plays a role when gifting someone a fruit basket. You can decorate the simple basket with ribbons or tulle cloth and believe us; the receiver may preserve the basket even after the fruits are consumed.

  • Size

You need to pick the right size of the fruit basket when gifting someone. If the receiver lives alone, giving a big fruit basket is of no use as the fruits will get spoiled long before he/she consumed them. For them, a simple and small basket of fruit assortment is ideal. You can gift a bigger fresh fruit hamper to people with big families so that it can be shared and enjoyed by whole family. If there are kids in the family, pick fruits that are loved by kids such as kiwi, strawberry, banana, pineapple, etc.

Keeping these points in mind will help in always choosing a great fruit basket hamper.
