Not sure what to get your long-distance loved one? Shopping at a distance can be tough…it’s harder to get a feel for what your recipients’ tastes may be, or how they may have changed. When you can’t visit often, you also can’t see if the person in question might already have what you were thinking of getting for them. That’s where gourmet gift baskets come in handy! Why you should put “send gift basket” on your “to do” list. Don’t be fooled into think it’s a cop-out – sending beautifully presented baskets for gifts is not only a convenient option, it’s…

Once upon a time, a holiday fruitcake was among the most beloved of seasonal treats (December 7th is National Fruitcake Day), but in modern times it has suffered a decrease in popularity (January 7th is Fruitcake Toss Day). Maybe it’s because fruitcake can be very heavy, or maybe it’s because chocolate is more readily available nowadays…regardless, fruitcake sometimes gets a bad rap, but it never really goes away – in fact, every continent has its own versions. And it’s not just for the holidays or weddings anymore – due to its nutrient-dense makeup, fruitcake is growing in popularity with hikers, bikers,…

Every one of us is unique and has our own differences including our traditions and religious beliefs. For our Jewish friends who are hosting parties or are celebrating holidays, we would like to ensure that we give them gifts that are kosher to show that we respect their customs and heritage. What is Kosher? Kosher is a term used to describe food that adheres to the strict dietary standards of traditional Jewish law – food considered to be pure and suitable for consumption. The law not only determines which food may be eaten but also how these foods may be…

Health is wealth. This is one of the main reasons people send delicious and nutritious fruit gift baskets to loved ones on holidays and special occasions. This old tradition is a sweet, unspoken way of wishing your gift basket recipient a long and healthy life. Tasty and doubly Healthy Fruits included in the wonderfully arranged holiday fruit baskets are farm-fresh and are of supreme quality since they are all directly delivered to the intended recipients straight from the tree. The sweetness and juiciness are top-of-the-line since fruits are harvested during the peak harvest season. Now fruits are not just tasty,…

The internet makes many things possible. It allows us to get information about anything and everything under the sun, and helps us easily procure services and items we need for our daily lives. One of the many things I appreciate about the internet is the ability to mail order fresh produce like fruits online. With a click of a mouse or a tap of my finger, I can easily get freshly picked, premium quality fruits that are often unavailable in grocery stores. Fruit Delivery Service Orchards and fruit farms can now offer fresh fruit delivery to private residences. In-season freshly…

A daily dose of fruit, especially citrus because of the numerous vitamins and minerals they contain that can help the body stay healthy, is a must if we want to stay away from illnesses. Even if it is just half a serving of Grapefruit for breakfast, or an orange smoothie for dessert, adding fruits to our daily diet is always a win. However, because of the quarantine in place due to the deadly coronavirus, many have had to stay at home to prevent the spread of disease. So how do we get our hands on those precious life-giving fruits? The…

As the reality of quarantine caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic sets in, more and more people are starting to feel lonely, stressed, and anxious as more days go by. We do not know when the community quarantine will be lifted nor when the spread of the virus will end, but we can still stay connected while apart by ordering fruit baskets online and sending them to our friends and loved ones. When sending fruit baskets, we do not just let the important people in our lives know that we are thinking about them, but we also send a wish…
