Our exceedingly popular Traditional Christmas Hampers are a classic gift choice, and are filled with beloved Irish seasonal fayre that will always be warmly appreciated at Christmas time. Rich and comforting foods associated with the Christmas season include freshly baked sweet mince pies, rich pudding, fruit cake, winter preserves, hot tea and buttery shortbread. These hampers filled with classic Christmas treats are proven favourites year after year, and popular with all.
We don't just offer one type of Traditional Christmas Hamper with tiered pricing. We offer multiple options at several popular price points and we maintain a strictness of quality control, which means that although our Christmas Hampers are probably amongst the pricier options available online, they are without doubt far better value with greater options containing more of the Christmas elements you want for said price.
To us Traditional Christmas Hampers should focus on food, good traditional Christmas food. For what is Christmas without food? And what is a hamper without food? This is why a Christmas Hamper works so effortlessly well.
Christmas hampers have many vital components. As you can see they have the core 'Christmas' items that give the hamper its undeniable traditional Christmas feel. Once we have these items we don't just add in some more items from our warehouse and call it job done. That would be pointless. It wouldn't create a gift and it certainly wouldn't create a traditional gift hamper. We can only include items that make sense. Our Traditional Christmas Hampers must be harmonious in colour, taste and purpose before we can classify them as a finished gift ready to be sold.
Food is traditional for a Christmas hamper and is the main focus of all of our Traditional Christmas Hampers. However, we appreciate that sometimes it is appropriate to add wine to the Christmas gift, to increase the festive cheer. If you look through our Traditional Christmas Gift Hampers you will see we have done so in a select few and it fits perfectly in each case.
Often times the word traditional is mistaken for old or out of fashion. This couldn't be further from the truth. We know that people who appreciate traditional hampers also appreciate the finer things in life. If you live life with class and sophistication or you are trying to find a Christmas Hamper for someone who does then this is the hamper range for you.
Christmas Hampers have been being sold for many years. There are many old companies that can sell a Traditional Christmas Hamper just by putting their name on it. However, we think you will get better hampers by focussing on the food inside the hampers instead. That is what we do. Our main focus is on the quality of the products we place into our hampers.
There isn't a time of year more steeped in tradition in Ireland than Christmas. Whether you celebrate or not it is impossible to get away from it. Why would you want to? We are absorbed in tradition at this time of year, it only seems natural to seek out traditional Christmas food as well.
A Traditional Christmas Gift Hamper is ideal for sending to a family that is likely to share the hamper. Because it is traditional the flavours within aren't going to be too adventurous, that isn't to say they will be boring! This means you can safely share within the group, even amongst any children and you should please everyone.
We have found that these days the thinking is that everything should be modern and forward thinking within an inch of its life. This of course isn't always the case. Especially not with something like a Christmas Hamper. A Christmas Hamper is traditional for a good reason. It looks good. It looks cozy and warm.
Some of our most popular and best selling Christmas food hampers are part of our traditional Christmas Hamper range. This doesn't come as a surprise to us. Every year at Christmas our customers come back to the same basics. They want Christmas core items such as Christmas cake and mince pies and they want that paired with some gourmet goodies. They want a traditional Christmas hamper. We can't blame them. We could create the most imaginative and strange hamper under the sun but we know what people like and we know what people want. They want a Traditional Christmas Hamper with traditional food that can delight all the family.
When you combine the selection of including more desirable Christmas products with a Traditional core, which refuses to compromise on quality, then the resulting range of Christmas Hampers is something that we at Irish Gourmet think reflects our ethos.
