why Christmas hampers make great gifts

Christmas hampers make great gifts because they reflect the thoughtfulness of the gift giver. You can select something truly special that you know your recipient will love. On top of this, you can add your own personal gift message and have their gift delivered straight to their door, right in time for Christmas morning.
 
Our mission is to bring joy and togetherness at Christmas, and a luxury food and drink hamper is a wonderful way to bring that joy. It's a great opportunity to share a truly tasty and delightful gift this festive season and make that special someone feel cherished.
 
Take a look at our reasons why Christmas hampers make great gifts and then get the Christmas shopping done with ease and convenience, knowing you have selected a present they will truly love.
 

Reasons why a hamper is a thoughtful Christmas gift idea

Choose a food and drink hamper they will adore

You can choose a hamper for Christmas based on exactly the food and drink you know they love. When someone buys you a Christmas gift hamper based on something they know that you adore it shows a huge amount of thoughtfulness behind it. It shows that the person really knows you. It shows they care about what you enjoy and what will bring you a little bit of extra happiness over Christmas.
 
A Christmas gift basket full of items that you love to savour is a very special and thoughtful gift indeed. At hampers.com, we love thinking about all of the different things people love to eat and drink. From chocolate to wine, from sweets to cake, as well as offering non-alcoholic and vegan options... you are sure to find a thoughtful Christmas gift idea, that shows you care too.


Hampers are a gift that can be enjoyed for much longer than just Christmas day

Trivia & Treats Christmas Hamper - Festive Food & Drinks Gifts

Hampers are not just for Christmas! We carefully select many of our products to have good longevity and a good shelf life. This means our festive foods and range of delights can be enjoyed over a longer period. A hamper's contents can be saved for after the crazy Christmas rush and for a quieter new year.

With our luxury hamper ranges, there are so many different products to continue tasting, exploring and pairing, which means the enjoyment from a Christmas hamper can continue for days and across many different mealtimes. For example our After-Dinner Trivia & Treats hamper featuring 100 questions, whilst the perfect entertainment for the whole family after a festive meal, can be played all year round.

Importantly, each time your special recipient delves back into their Christmas hamper, they are reminded of you. They are reminded of their thoughtful buyer and the care you have taken in selecting this gift just for them. It's a thoughtfulness wrapped up in all shapes and sizes.  
 

These Christmas gifts are environmentally responsible 

Traditional Christmas Food and Drinks Gift Hamper

We know that many people today share our concerns about the environment and the unnecessary waste that Christmas can bring. Likely, both you and the person you are looking for a gift for will share these values.

This is another reason why our Christmas hampers make such thoughtful gifts. They are gifts that do not cost the planet. We are proud to deliver environmentally responsible gifting and we continue to look for more ways to do this.  Did you know we have already achieved carbon-neutral status and are committed to becoming B Corp certified?

We believe that we can only truly bring joy to gifting if we’re looking after the environment whilst we do it. Our carbon offsetting is supporting four wonderful projects, which means that every gift you send with us is officially 100% carbon neutral.
 
We source all our amazing products for our gift hampers from credible, responsible and award-winning producers and makers. For example, our Traditional Christmas Hamper features delicious chocolate from Choc Affair who support two local organisations, which help those who are marginalised and facing employment barriers by providing valuable training, support, and paid job opportunities.
