Posted by 557 Comments

This giveaway is now closed.  Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Monique R. Congrats!

A few weeks ago, I shared my experience with several brands that have partnered with 1-800-Flowers.com.  You can choose several items from these companies and put them together…or you could order a lovely gourmet basket from 1-800-Baskets.com.  If you’re struggling with time or a creative way to put a gift together, you can be sure that you’ll find expertly designed baskets with yummy gourmet food items from 1-800-Baskets.com. The company considers things like color combination and basket choices so that their baskets look as good as they taste.

I received the Regal Oak Grandeur Gift Basket to review.  It is was filled with gourmet chocolate (Ghiradelli), cheese, cookies, and more.  My favorite item in the basket was a pack of chocolate mint cookies.  I like the combination of both sweet and salty food items and you can choose gift baskets with a variety of food themes.  Some of the companies represented include The Popcorn Factory, Fannie May, Harry London and Cheryl & Co.  I’ve also been eying the Martha Stewart baskets!!!  Here is a little more about what makes the company unique:

Each one of our gift baskets is expertly designed by our talented team of Product, Basket and Gift Designers. Great care and consideration is given to finding exactly the right combination of materials and color for a beautiful presentation. With so many options like painted willow, distressed wood, and stamped metal, we’re sure we have the perfect gift solution for you. A lot of thought and care also goes into the work our dedicated Buyers do to search the world for the best foods, wines, fruits and other items that fill each gift. We source materials worldwide and that allows us to use the best manufacturers.

On the site you’ll find gift baskets in all price ranges, including 30 gifts under $30.

  168. Wow.. the Cuisinart Rice Plus Multi-Cooker with Fuzzy Logic Technology that you reviewed looks too good to be true. It is definitely my favorite of the products you reviewed. This is something I would really love to have in my kitchen. My son is a vegetarian and the whole family eats healthier because of it. This appliance would really make some of my cooking push button easy.

    Thank you for reviewing this item.

  535. My mouse immediately clicked on the cakes and cookies button and my mouth is now watering looking at the Best of Junior’s 4-Flavor Cheesecake Sampler. Oh my word, those look delicious!

  548. Any of the Pine Ridge Wine Luxury Trunk, Martha Stewart Afternoon Tea Hamper, Starbucks Break Time Gift Basket or Rodney Strong Wine Connoisseur Holiday Collection would be great choices. If I had to limit it to one, I’d go with one of the non-alcoholic ones, probably the Martha Stewart Afternoon Tea Hamper
