6 Easy Steps to Create
the Perfect DIY Basket
Choosing the specific products for your
Do-It-Yourself basket can be fun and it can also be a bit overwhelming.
Here are some easy steps to help you create the perfect kosher basket
for your recipient.
Step 1:
Determine your budget. In doing so, remember that a $12.50 fee will be
added as well as shipping charges.
Step 2: What is
your vision for the basket? Looking for a fun birthday
 basket
or a solemn sympathy gift? Is the gift
 for
a Jewish holiday? Do you want to include only food items or food and
non- food such as a
book or
CD? Is the basket for adults only or a mix of
adults and children? Is the basket being sent to a home or office? Can
the recipients be asked to cut and serve items or would it be better if
they simply unwrap and eat? (You never knew so much thinking went in to
gift basket design, right?)
 Step
3: Choose an anchor item. This is one that may be physically
larger than the rest and will set the tone for the
 basket.
All other items will complement this item. Here at
Challah
Connection, we utilize our outstanding baked goods as anchor
items. Excellent anchors are
babka, coffee cake (any of our five flavors;
apple,
cinnamon walnut,
pumpkin,
cranberry and
blueberry),
challah and
challets.
Step 4: Now that
you have chosen an anchor, what items complement it? What are the
specific tastes of the recipient? Two items that go well with any anchor
are our award-winning
rugelach bag and bag of
black and white cookies.
Step 5: What
else to add?
Nuts,
chocolate,
smoked salmon and crackers,
beverages, a
book,
CD? As you are making your selections, be
mindful of your budget.
