Disclaimer: We received an Elves Christmas hamper for the purpose of this review but all words and opinions are our own.
Filled with festive treats, a food hamper is the ultimate gift to give (and receive) at Christmas. Devon is a paradise for foodies, so this fabulous Elves Christmas wicker hamper from Devon Hampers, packed full of delicious treats will make a fantastic gift for friends and relatives this Christmas!
First and foremost, let me tell you how fantastic the wicker basket is, it is a sturdy and well made and fastens with two buckled straps. I can see this basket being reused once all the items inside have been eaten, it would make a great picnic basket in the warmer months and could also be used as a stylish storage basket. But that’s enough about the basket, I’m sure you want to find out what’s inside………once again, the presentation was excellent, with wood shavings supporting all the goodies inside and it was really exciting lifting the top items to see what treats were underneath.
We were very impressed by the variety of items in the hamper, there was such a nice selection and there was something for everyone, sweet, savoury and alcohol – this hamper has it all.
The sweet toothed members of my family were delighted with Grandma Wilds brandy mince pies and the very festive sounding milk chocolate coated cranberry biscuits. The mince pies were delicious warm and the buttery pastry and combination of brandy and mincement was divine.
I love fudge and especially Devon fudge so was thrilled with the Strawberries & cream fudge from The Devon Fudge Company. The 150g bag is the perfect size for sharing (or you could just keep it all for yourself- I won’t tell!) and the red chocolate hearts were loved by the whole family.
My husband is more a savoury person so the Grandma Wilds Mature Cheddar Mini Bites were soon paired with some tasty cheese and a glass of the Waqi Malbec red wine and went down a treat.
Christmas is a great time for snacking and with a bag of Spicy Sweet Chilli crisps from Burts and Mr Filberts Dry Roasted Peanuts these will go down a treat.
Finally, no Christmas hamper is complete without a Christmas pudding and inside the hamper is a scrumptious one made by Plymouth based The Carved Angel. This fruity pudding is nice and moist with a nice balance of flavours. Delicious with cream or brandy sauce.
This wonderful hamper is bound to add plenty of festive flair to your Christmas festivities, whether you treat yourself or give it as a gift. With a selection of food and drink which is sure to have your mouth watering there will be something for the whole family to enjoy this Christmas
