Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What are some unique and thoughtful gift ideas to include in staff Christmas hampers?

Personalised hampers for staff Christmas gifts add a unique touch of thoughtfulness that pre-made hampers simply can’t match, making them more memorable for everyone involved. They also allow you to tailor each hamper to suit the recipient’s personality, hobbies, and tastes, turning the gift into a delightful, bespoke experience.

Here are some fun and budget-friendly ideas that will make your staff feel greatly appreciated.

• Gourmet chef basket. If your employees are keen on cooking at home, why not fill their Christmas thank-you gifts with artisanal ingredients? Gourmet ingredients like spiced rum, olives, sunflower seeds, or quince paste, along with a recipe book, are always welcome in a busy kitchen.
• Home cinema night hamper. Create a movie lover’s dream basket with delightful snacks, such as gourmet popcorn, a selection of roasted nuts or dried fruit, and a crisp beer or two for home movie nights.
• Travel enthusiast basket. Travelling enriches the soul, and if your employee likes to see what Australia’s great outback has to offer, then travel essentials like a cooler bag, handy travel snacks like jerky or chips, and practical care products are great options for curated Christmas gifts.
• Wellness and relaxation basket. Perfect for the hard worker who deserves a lot of pampering, a typical wellness and relaxation basket includes items like scented candles, plush pillows or towels, a selection of herbal teas, and luxurious body creams.
• Homemaker’s delight hamper. If your employee is a family-oriented person, they may appreciate Christmas gourmet treats that are ready to share, such as gourmet snacks like biscuits, chocolates, hot drinks, or premium cheeses and wines.

Curating personalised hampers can be a joyful and engaging activity, adding a genuine personal connection to the festive season. If you’re planning to distribute hampers for staff Christmas celebrations, order your gift hampers from Gourmet Basket, where we have over 380 premium ingredients and gift items to choose from.

What are the popular sizes or options for staff Christmas hampers?

Many companies want to order luxurious hampers for staff Christmas gifts, but which sizes are ideal? As it happens, Christmas hampers come in a variety of sizes, though the exact sizes may differ between gift companies.

Below are the most common options available:

• Individual or mini hampers. Compact and personal, these are ideal for individual staff members. They typically contain a selection of small gourmet treats, as well as a miniature bottle of wine or other types of drinks, such as coffees or teas.
• Standard hampers. Standard hampers are a popular size choice for work team hampers, as the contents can be shared among members. These hampers typically include a variety of items like wine and chocolates, cheeses, crackers, or a selection of savoury snacks.
• Luxury or large hampers. Designed to impress, these larger hampers are filled with premium items such as fine wines, artisanal foods, high-end chocolates, and gourmet delicacies. These hampers are suitable as office party hampers or as a special gift for an employee of the year.

If you’d like more flexibility with your staff appreciation gifts, you can also opt to customise them. From as few as three items or ingredients, Gourmet Basket lets you choose your gift hamper contents. Through our corporate branding services, we can also customise your gift box or hamper with your company’s unique branding.

Please get in touch with our Corporate Gifting Team for more information on these services.

How far in advance should I order staff Christmas hampers to ensure timely delivery?

Sending a Christmas hamper Australia-wide has become a popular way to share the joy of the season with loved ones near and far. Once you’ve selected your hampers for staff Christmas parties, choosing and delivering your holiday season hampers on time becomes paramount.

To ensure your heartfelt gesture of staff appreciation arrives with the magic of the season, we recommend ordering your hampers at least two to three weeks in advance. This is especially crucial if you order customised or personalised gift hampers, as these services add extra processing time. 

The earlier you place your order, the better chance you have of getting exactly what you want in terms of content and quantity. Placing your orders well in advance also provides some breathing room should any unexpected shipping delays occur. 

Hampers for staff Christmas events are a thoughtful way to show gratitude and spread festive cheer in the workplace. At Gourmet Basket, each hamper is packaged, dispatched, and delivered with great care so that your precious gift hampers arrive in the best condition possible.
