healthy gifts

Birthday gifts, anniversary gifts, get well soon gifts…regardless of the occasion you may want to send someone you love a healthy gift.  But without wrapping up a stalk of broccoli in a bow perhaps you need a bit of help.  Healthy gifts come in all varieties- is the recipient watching their weight/sugar/salt intake?  Perhaps they have special dietary needs and wish to omit gluten/nuts/dairy from their diet? Based on their individual needs and wants we can help you to design a healthy gift to suit.

Helathy gifts depend on the person who is receiving the gift, so first determine their needs.  If they are in hospital consider that a melon or pineapple may be more trouble than it is worth.  Hand held fruit is always a winner, with only the natural sugars needing to be taken into consideration for diabetics.

If salt is the enemy think natural- the less processed the food is, then the less salt it will contain.  Fresh fruit is perfect here, as is fruit juice and other treats such as Hampstead Tea and Ditty’s biscuits.  if it is sugar you are avoiding, why not send a cheese and oatcake combination?

For serious allergies stick with the brands that guarantee ‘free from’.  We stock foods from ‘Against the Grain’ ‘Doves Farm’ and ‘Sunnyvale’ that cater to these needs.

One easy solution to healthy gifts is fresh fruit- catering to most tastes and needs, it is always a winner and there is a great selection of seasonal fresh fruit available now.  With a delicious selection of healthy foods all wrapped up to make the perfect gift I highly recommend the Superfoods Breakfast Basket.

This beautiful basket contains:

• Large bag of ‘Wonderberries’
• Large kiwi fruit
• Punnet of fresh blueberries
• Large juicy grapefruit
• Large seasonal Pears
• Punnet of Red Seedless grapes
• Honeydew Melon
• Organic Fairtrade Tea
• Forest Feast Roasted Nuts Muesli

If you love someone, you want to keep them happy and healthy at all times.  As tempting as it may be to make them happy by sending indulgent gifts of wine and chocolate at every gift occasion such as birthdays and Christmas, sometimes you want to think about the long term health benefits, and send healthy food gifts.  There is a way to send something healthy, and have it still feel special and indulgent- by sending a beautifully wrapped basket filled with fresh seasonal fruit.  Why not send something that they wouldn’t normally treat themselves to, like an Exotic Fruit Basket?

We have designed one of our baskets to be bursting with health and goodness.  This basket is the pinnacle of healthy food gifts!  The Superfoods Breakfast Surprise Basket is filled with superfoods.
