Best Buy Gift Baskets

Gift baskets get a bad rap, and many deserve it for their uninspired or mismatched components: stale crackers, gritty chocolate, Red Delicious apples that are anything but. We wanted to find the standout choices, gift baskets that would be delicious, beautiful, delightful, and comforting any time of year.

You may also like: Formaggio Kitchen gift baskets, which start at $75, are generous and come with ample fixings. Although we think the Jasper Hill Farm cheeses taste unique and make for an extra-special gift, the Formaggio Kitchen baskets are big enough to nibble on for a few days. The smallest-size Apprentice Cheese Bundle includes four cheeses, with the option to add on crackers, jam, or dried apricots. (Larger versions of this basket can include various additional items such as salami, olives, dried fruit, and almonds.)

You may also like: The Curio Spice Co. Culinary Essentials box ($32) includes common yet super-flavorful spices that your gift recipient will reach for daily. Curio toasts or grinds many of its spices in-house and sources spices from small, sustainable farms around the world, as well as locally in New England, where the company is based.

A matcha starter kit: The Ippodo Tea Essential Matcha Kit ($130) from the revered Japanese tea shop includes everything you need for a cup of matcha: 20 grams of grassy Horai matcha tea, a chawan (a matcha tea bowl), a bamboo tea ladle, a tea strainer, and a bamboo whisk with a stand. This set is as much about the experience of making tea as it is about drinking it, and Ippodo offers clear instructions on how to use each tool to make a correct cup. This is a special gift for someone who would appreciate the ritual and flavor of fine matcha, and the tools will last years if you care for them. But the quality does come with a high price tag.

For this guide, she collaborated closely with editor Winnie Yang, who has worked in the food industry and has written for Art of Eating, Saveur, and Condé Nast Traveler, among others.

For some companies like Knack, where customization is their specialty, yes. At Tasty Ribbon, you can build a box from scratch for a completely personalized experience. Others like Basketry allow you to add a gift message to your box or basket to send a special message to your boss, neighbor, friend, or spouse.

Some even allow for other special add-ons including packaging options like bows and ribbons, embroidered liners for baskets, or additional items. For an even more personalized gift, turn to companies like Stonewall Kitchen which allow buyers to design their own breakfast gift basket from scratch so gifters can choose the perfect items for their recipient.

Gift baskets often include a lot of packaging, which may make them not the most sustainable choice. However, many companies including Levain and Stonewall Kitchen use recycled or sustainable packaging on all of their products. Sellers often list on their website if they are committed to sustainability. However, most packaging used on gift baskets can be recycled.
