How to put together a Holiday Gift Basket

Looking for a gift to wow someone this holiday season?  Put together a show stopping gift basket, packed with premium, decadent treats.

There are so many things to love about the holiday season.  The festive decor, the holiday lights, the parties and get-togethers with loved ones, and of course (you know this is my favorite) – the FOOD!  One of the things I love about the holidays is the spirit of giving.  It is so fun to find something special for someone and know that you made their day when they receive their gift.

Of course, it can get a little overwhelming finding something for everyone. This, my friends, is where the gift basket comes in.  Everyone loves a gift basket, especially when it is packed with extraordinary, ultra-premium treats like these from the new Signature RESERVE ™ collection at Safeway.

When Safeway reached out to me about building a gift basket using the new Signature RESERVE collection, I couldn’t wait to get started. Signature RESERVE offers elevated culinary experience, featuring globally sourced ingredients and unique flavors.  Only after a rigorous selection process do these products earn the Signature RESERVE label. We are talking HIGH QUALITY products, beautiful packaging, and great value.

I loved stopping in to my local Safeway to pick up these Signature RESERVE products for my gift basket.  The selection was amazing, I had a hard time narrowing down what I wanted for my gift basket.  I decided to go with a coffee, tea and dessert theme. The single origin coffee and the loose-leaf tea are so fragrant and aromatic and the beautiful packaging just makes them feel extra special.  My favorite Signature RESERVE product though?

The Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Caramels.  Oh my goodness you guys, these are to die for.  You will want to buy a few extra boxes for yourself, just trust me on this.  I also added a jar of the Aged Bourbon Pecan Pie filling to round out this basket.

This Coffee, Tea and Dessert basket is the perfect for:

• Holiday gifts for Teachers
• Hostess Gifts
• Holiday Gifts for Babysitters
• Secret Santa Gifts
• Holiday gifts for employees
• Holiday Gifts for Coworkers
• Holiday gifts for Clients

Everyone loves treats, and what could be a better pick me up than a sea salt caramel and a steaming cup of rich coffee?  Fill your basket with high quality treats and you will make someone’s holiday season just a little brighter. Make your shopping experience a little brighter as well, and use the Safeway and Albertsons grocery delivery app, or pick-up options for your gift basket shopping! Skipping the holiday shopping crowds is a gift in itself.
