A Sweet Cookie Gift Basket

A cookie gift basket is a sweet way to thank someone for something that they did. Particularly if they have a sweet tooth or love a particular cookie that they don't often get to eat. There are many ways that you can make your cookie gift basket special, whether it's the type of cookies you select of the presentation. It's one of those gifts that are suitable for any occasion and for anyone. It's really handy to give these as presents to people whom you don't know very well. It's a fail safe that's sure to make someone smile.

Dietary Needs

When you are sending a cookie gift basket you can tailor the needs of the person to the gift. If the person needs to eat gluten free then you have to make sure that the cookies even if they are not made with wheat have not been exposed to wheat.

Check with suppliers about the suitability of their cookies for people with certain dietary needs. You can also make sure that the cookies have less sugar or sue a sugar substitute if the person receiving the gift is a diabetic or has a condition that means they need to eat healthier versions of the foods they once loved.

Add On

Add on to your cookie gift basket with special touches. A person's favorite flower or a cute soft toy is the perfect accompaniment to delicious cookies. Have your cookie gift basket attractively wrapped so that your thoughts for the person come across as well. You want the person to know how much you love them, let it show in the presentation.

Make sure you send a card with the basket with a special message. Have it delivered to the person as a surprise rather than bring it yourself. It's always nice to open your door and find a special package. Or choose cookies that are in special shapes that mean something to the person you are sending them to.

Themes whether in the shape or color can be chosen to suit the occasion. A birthday can have plenty of bright colors while seasonal colors can be used for certain holidays like Christmas, Halloween and Valentines.

Different flavors also come into play when choosing a cookie gift basket. Some ingredient like ginger and cinnamon are Christmas favorites while pumpkin is eternally linked to Halloween and Thanksgiving. Choose carefully and you can have the perfect gift for your special someone.
