2025 Jun 30th
Discover the Perfect Gourmet Gift Basket
Gourmet gifting is about offering more than just treats—it’s about curating an experience that delights every time. At Baskits, we’ve designed the Champlain Medium to do exactly that. With its sophisticated presentation and crowd-pleasing selection of sweet indulgences, it’s the kind of gift that feels generous, thoughtful, and joyfully received.
Champlain Medium is especially popular for its focus on rich, chocolatey favourites and artisan-made cookies. While it's a sweet-forward basket, it includes a single savoury twist—sharp cheddar puffs—for just the right hint of balance. Arranged in a reusable plaid-style base, it delivers on both presentation and flavour, making it a standout in our gourmet collection.
