GourmetGiftBaskets.com had humble beginnings with two family members starting the business from the basement of a flower shop. With massive growth, GourmetGiftBaskets.com has kept true to its core with continuing to provide gourmet ingredients with gift baskets that are handcrafted with care and are great for any occasion.
I was sent two of GourmetGiftBaskets.com lovely gift baskets. The one picture at top is called the Gourmet Gift Tower ($39.99). This stack of four sturdy boxes is tied together with a mixture of colored raffia. It contains a bit of salty and sweet to pleasure the senses and is visually appealing to the eye at 15″ tall.
Items included in the Gourmet Gift Tower:
Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper Kettle Corn by KingOfPOP.com– 1.4 oz. – Delectable, hand crafted popcorn lightly coated with sugar, drizzled with oil, and then rolled in sea salt and freshly cracked pepper.
Buffalo Popcorn by KingOfPOP.com– 1.5 oz. – Crunchy popcorn drizzled with sweet melted butter, tangy vinegar, and perfectly sprinkled with cayenne pepper.
Roasted & Salted Peanuts by J&R Gourmet – 8 oz. – These premium Virginia peanuts are gently sprinkled with sea salt and hand roasted.
Honey Mustard & Onion Pretzel Pieces by Harvey’s Pretzels– 4 oz. – Baked to perfection and coated with honey mustard and onion seasoning.
Chocolate Wafer Petites by Dolcetto– .7 oz. – Luscious bite-sized chocolate wafers sure to satisfy a chocolate craving.
Chichester Snack Mix by Merrimack Valley Snack Company– 2 oz. – A perfect mixture of tasty cheddar cheese crackers, crunchy pretzel nuggets, and premium nuts.
Assorted Citrus Slices by Primrose Candy– Individually wrapped gourmet candies bursting with fruit juice flavor.
I shared the tower with my family and they enjoyed the assortment of snacks. Our taste buds were questioning if maybe the roasted and salted peanuts could use a bit less salt, but otherwise a wonderful variety.
This gift set is perfect for summer. It is the Barbecue Boss – BBQ Gift Basket ($69.99). This set includes a zesty sauce with Sriracha, Rufus Teague’s BBQ sauce that is excellent, and other goodies.
Ingredients of the Barbecue Boss – BBQ Gift Basket:
• Sriracha Teriyaki Sauce by Stonewall Kitchen – 11 oz. – A spicy dipping sauce made from sun-ripened chilis and garlic.
• Roasted & Salted Peanuts by J&R Gourmet – 2 oz. – Better than any ballpark peanuts you’ve ever tasted, roasted and salted to perfection.
• Chichester Snack Mix by Merrimack Valley Snack Company – 2 oz. – A delightful snack mix comprised of crunchy pretzel nuggets, cheddar cheese crackers, and premium nuts.
• Spicy Peri Peri & Lemon Veggie Roaster by Urban Accents – 1 oz. – A spicy blend of chili pepper, lemon peel and garlic flavor.
• Touch O’Heat BBQ Sauce by Rufus Teague – 16 oz. – All natural and gluten-free, this BBQ sauce is what barbeque is supposed to taste like.
• Beef & Burger Rub by Urban Accents – 1.5 oz. – Use for grilling or roasting to bring out all the juicy flavors in whatever meat you choose.
We have tried all, but the Spicy Peri Peri & Lemon Veggie Roaster with excellent results. Our garden is prolific with kale now so I hope to try it soon. The peanuts used in this basket are the same brand as those in the other gift assortment, which seemed a little too salty for my family, but are probably delicious to others.
