Create the Perfect Do-It-Yourself Basket in 6 Easy Steps

 

 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 Kosher Gift Box, 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.

 

 Step 6: Enjoy the process! If you have any questions or want help from us—just call us at 866-925-7747 or email. We are here to help!!
