Fruit Baskets Go Great With Parties After The Holidays

The fresh citrus fruit basket or assorted gift basket makes a great gift to your loved ones, your friends or yourself for the holiday season. The gift of fresh fruit arrangements and assortments makes a surprising, yet healthy treat for anyone looking to keep their holiday celebrating on the safe side of their diets and healthy lifestyle.

But what’s true for the holiday season is also true for New Years and into January and February. Fruit baskets for the holidays are great gifts, but fruit packed by itself or into an assorted gift basket makes a great way to keep all of the holiday gift basket cheer continuing throughout the other cold months of winter. Many assorted gift baskets and citrus fruit baskets can be shipped as late as February, meaning they make great birthday presents and Valentine’s Day, as well as charming and meaningful centerpieces and decorative touches to Epiphany celebrations.

For Birthdays
Giving an assorted gift basket as a birthday gift can send any number of messages. You can demonstrate to the recipient how much you value their health and well-being. A citrus gift basket shows you want them to have a special treat on their birthday, something unexpected and yet impossible to resist.

Gift-givers who know the recipient’s favorite flavor of fruit can order a specialty basket featuring just that kind of fruit, or an assorted gift basket to give them a choice.

For Valentine’s Day
The traditional gifts for Valentine’s Day are flowers and candy. Candy isn’t healthy, and flowers wilt after only a few days. But by giving an assorted gift basket, the devoted and loving can show their affection with a gift that won’t have to last, because it’ll get eaten in no time. And needless to say, citrus fruit is also infinitely healthier than chocolates and other sugar-rich candies. In our modern fitness-centered culture, giving a healthy gift shows an increased level both of caring and respect.

For Epiphany

Many Catholics celebrate the Epiphany with a king cake or other delicacies, but a fresh citrus fruit basket gives a more organic and sincere means of celebrating Christ’s presentation to the Magi. Assorted gift baskets and fruit towers also make a delightful, colorful centerpiece or accent to an epiphany feast. Hosts and celebrants can arrange sweets and other gifts around the basket or tower, letting the fruit provide a healthy alternative.
