Description
No Christmas Hamper has ever sold as many units as our original Christmas Traditional Celebration Gift Hamper. This is the original classic updated for 2022.
Our Christmas Traditional Celebration hamper is one of a small group of hampers which are only available in November and December. It's simply a result of the composition of foods such as Christmas Pudding, Mince Pies and Christmas Cake mixed in with chocolates, shortbread, mint chocolates all of which are made by micro food producers.
Every year we make a substantial but strictly limited number of the Traditional Celebration Hampers with the clear policy of selling out. Some years we have to put in extra orders to fulfil the demand in mid December, but we've made sure that we never have stock left over and we're also sure never to let any customers down.
What does this mean for you, the customer? You know that we'll never let you down at the last minute and that we're committed to putting the best quality items into your hamper. When it comes to Christmas Hampers, we're a product specialist and we only want high quality producers to be included within our brand offer.
Containing all the essential core elements for a Christmas Hamper, the Traditional Celebration is oozing in quality and taste, with luxury chocolates, truffles and quality Christmas fayre. There is something for everyone, with teas, and jams, to the extremely popular Lindt Chocolates. Celebrate in style this Christmas, with the Christmas Traditional Celebration Hamper.

The Story
The Christmas Traditional Celebration Hamper Mark 1 was first created about fifteen years ago and the contents were largely similar to today. We created it from our imaginations and when we had finished selecting the core elements that we wanted to define this hamper with, and had settled on the supporting cast, we scanned around the competition at the time to see that there really wasn't anything like it in the market.
We were extremely pleased with our handiwork. Yet we were also filled with a sense of trepidation. For the previous 18 months, we'd been continually innovating and creating new types of gift baskets and hampers, attending markets, handing out flyers, beating at the doors of business parks. Here was a Christmas hamper, which was our interpretation of what constituted a traditional Christmas Hamper as opposed to what else was available on the market online. Our version differed because we set out to only include the best Christmas Food versions of traditional contents. Not only were we a little more expensive but we were infinitely better value and most importantly of all we created Christmas hampers that people actually enjoyed rather than endured.
As the years rolled by we were able to hold prices because we scaled accordingly and reduced the time it takes to assemble the average hamper without compromising on quality. In spite of everything the passing of time over the years reduces the value of money. The 2020 version of this Christmas hamper is now 40% higher than at launch, yet the value of sterling has more than halved when based purely against itself. It's a reflection of our hamper ethos and determination to offer better hampers that the quality has been maintained without resorting to cheapening or totally passing on price increases every year.
