Recently made some gift baskets for a bridal shower and found that I really enjoy building them out. I wanted to make some gift baskets for my siblings for Christmas this year and wanted to know what I can do to add something a little extra for the bottom. Candy is an easy one and I know I'll be adding some to one of the baskets, but was wondering of any ideas (edible or not) for what else I could use for the others? For reference this wouldn't be covering the entire bottom of the gift basket, more so used as decoration/something cute the person would like that adds to the gift basket aesthetic.
It's that time of year where I start planning out my cooking and baking to-dos.
I want to gift my neighbors Christmas baskets full of homemade treats this year, but I don't want it to just be sweets. The way I see it is that everyone will be gifting sweets and I don't want a cookie burnout. I recently moved to a small-ish town so I love including exotic or fancy treats that my neighbors can't regularly get.
I'm known around the neighborhood for high quality, from-scratch cooking and baking. Not a chef but I've worked in fancy bakeries and kitchens on the line. Can and will go all out on these baskets!
All that said, what would you want in your Christmas basket?
