Something Different Christmas Gifts

Something Different for Christmas 


Bespoke Christmas Hampers Luxury Gourmet
Gourmet Christmas Hampers 2015
Never Again!  You might remember promising yourself, as you packed away the Christmas Tree and vacuumed tinsel scatterings. Never again would you buy something you didn't want to give to someone who didn't need it.  Never again would you sit through that long afternoon of stilted grunts and cliche talk with the nephews who still can't express themselves clearly at 34 years old.

Christmas - it's a time of joy to celebrate endings and conclusions of the year - but why the heck we choose to ruin it with extended periods meeting with people we don't really like  - what is with that?  Here's my take on Christmas and getting things right in the gift department so you feel light and joyous - not resentful and abused.

Simple Gift Ideas


Never again would you go out of your way to buy some out of the way gift for someone who also wasn't prepared to go out of the way to use the it - and just re-gifted it instead.  I've done this too many times.  It's easier to just make a solid gift selection from the beginning and stick with it year after year.

One of the most overwhelming facets of Christmas is the whole gift buying experience - which leaves many of us feeling deflated, exhausted and dirty from the over-commercialization of the experience.  Giving should be about giving - not feeling anxious and dreading the next credit card statement.

Choosing a Christmas Hamper


My preferred choice is for a gourmet gift hamper - made specially to order by locals who know the foodie selections to get it just right.  Now, a big thing with Christmas Hampers is that they are not all created equally - most are mass produced in factories and packed by wage slaves with no connection to the product, process or province.

Be careful - that's why a small business operating out of the Hunter Valley  has been so successful over the years - since being established in 1988.

Best thing for choosing a gift hamper is top make sure that the hamper is put together bespoke - so you can actually get to have a say in what ingredients comprise the hamper, as well as seeing that it is fresh.  This way, you get the most recent stock produced and not something that has been prepared sometimes months in advance.

Why Gift Cards Don't Work


You swore you would never again participate in a gift card swap - only to find yourself waiting in line at some shop you would never have otherwise visited, having to top up the price of some stuff you wouldn't have normally bought.

That's the trouble with gift cards - they are never enough and always leave you with that deep feeling of lack.  Like you were invited to the show but only got through to the first half and you have to pay more to see it through to the end.

It's the best time of year to share a Christmas Hamper, and the best Christmas Hampers are available for you.

Fruit Gifts are Healthy and Great for Hospital Gift Delivery!


Morbidly, chronically overweight people are often being prompted to reduce weight before surrendering the scalpel.  Eating fresh fruit and undertaking regular cardio exercise is essential - this means actually huffing and puffing and bringing up a sweat - not just strolling along the foreshore on a public holiday!!  Yet this might be difficult for people with minimal flexibility.

Neighborhood services for the average obese patient charges more than $43,000 a year, in comparison to roughly $7,500 for a non-obese sick person.  This is a vast amount compared to an affordable gift hamper delivered locally.
The figures are striking, but behind the monetary challenge for medical facility bean counters are folks battling complicated troubles - people like Lynne, who acknowledges she ate "all the wrong foods", but often did so to deal with difficult emotions.  Eating fresh, unprocessed natural food is a great way to get clean inside and feel your best.  It's really that simple.

McDonalds and KFC were her favourites. "It got to the point where I didn't really care. I over-indulged, I ate for comfort. If I didn't know what I wanted to do I 'd think, I may as well go and eat.".

Sending a Fruit Hamper for My Sick Work Colleague


Professor Savage said the new hospital would provide better treatment, but stressed it was merely a response to the problem. The "cure" is unlikely to be a medical one.

"If you're drunk you're not allowed to be served in a pub, but it's ok for fast-food outlets to deliver high calorie food in quantities that you and I couldn't possibly eat to an individual on a daily basis. So there's a moral issue," he said. "It's ethically sound to arrange a fruit hamper to be sent to your friend."

"Some patients have feeders. They will have a relative or friend who will go to the supermarket or takeaway place and buy food for them to eat. There's psychology, there's genetics and, unfortunately, there's no easy answer.".

He said disadvantage and a lack of education were often drivers, as were environmental factors such as a lack of access to fruit and vegetables, particularly in rural and regional areas.

"We also need to have to check out menu labelling for junk food outlets, or taxes to help to make processed food more pricey. It could be creating physical environments that promote more exercise safely such as bicycle expressways, and making it risk-free for little ones to walk to college.".

"I'm looking forward to going home and visiting friends and even sitting out on the front veranda at home in the sunshine and the fresh air," she said.

"I'm enjoying a fresh fruit basket delivered to me as a get well gift. It really brightens my spirits.".

Ageing and obesity will be the next two most significant conditions that might lead to death. Talking at the United Nations, a lecturer of international health and wellness systems at Harvard University, and the director of the International Health Systems Collection at Harvard T.H. Chan College of Epidemiology, Mr Rifat Atun, said.

Infectious diseases present a threat but nothing at all like the sustained life-style issues that results form lifetime persistent obesity. Reducing weight and maintaining a healthy weight in the Body Mass Index (BMI) weight range is the best way to prevent health challenges. Particularly, Ebola has been maintained and effectively controlled, so the attention is squarely back on limiting fat intake and moderating weight gain.

Dealing with weight gain is much more than a medical problem, with entrenched business models based on selling high fat high taste high salt products and shifting the corporate model from this requires considerable political pressure.

Aside from infectious diseases, Atun said obesity and obesity-related chronic diseases like hypertension, heart diseases and diabetes will be the coming future's massively important health problems. "The second-most important problem will certainly be physical changes that emerge with ageing," he said.

Say Thank You to a Friend with a Fruit Basket Who is Recovering from an Illness


And combining the two, a child with obesity could actually live 50 plus years presenting regularly at hospital and also clogging the system with the many related complaints which come with obesity.

Obesity is also complicated by the fact that it is certainly not simply a health related ailment - it is also has community and cultural implications. Rapid food and the reliance on fatty salty foods and sweet calorie dense foods means that a whole industry has developed around supplying these products, and dismantling it is not as simple as just advising people to buy other products.

The entire industrial complex is geared to producing cheap, fatty foods as well as supplying it at speed - meanings that people are able to commute even more to and from employment and can eat meals in their vehicles instead of sitting around a table. This leads to really eating in a sidetracked manner and really consuming a lot more, and eating the wrong foods as there is less pressure to preserve healthy choices when you are alone on the freeway. You can in a sense "get away with it".

The number-one challenge in combating excessive weight is the environment we live in, according so as to an Australian biologist who has received a Queen's Birthday honor in June 2015. The best way to address this 'obesogenic environment' is to redefine obesity research and make it cross disciplinary, said Professor Stephen Simpson, who has been granted a Companion of the Order of Australia (AC).

Same Day Delivery of a Fresh Fruit Basket with Wine and Chocolate to Hospital


"It's very easy to say obesity is all a failure of perseverance but we've designed a world that can make it really hard," said Simpson," head of Obesity Australia, and of the University of Sydney's Charles Perkins Centre.

For example, our bureaucratic and fiscal system encourages an unhealthy food supply system that produces processed food low in fiber and other important nutrients, and caters our evolutionary drive for sugar and fat, he said.

"If you tell people to eat less to slim down and you really don't appraise that our bodies do more than count nutrients, then you're on a hiding to practically nothing.".

The Charles Perkins Clinic involves clinicians, immunologists, metabolic biochemists, engineers as well as theorists, economic experts and community researchers.  "We've got individuals collaborating in techniques they've never ever done before," said Simpson. "The version for how you get relevant cross-disciplinary research study and education and learning which doesn't lose disciplinary credibility is novel.".

By working across all these types of disciplines, from excessive vehicle travel to eating poor food choices, people could really make an influence on their lives. You can see how bad it has gotten by following Lynne's story listed here.

"We merely see the tip of the iceberg. Certainly there's lots of folk seeing their GPs with type two diabetes who will never come up to a healthcare facility, at least not for the moment.  But they will most likely in 10 to 15 years time and it's something our staff need to address as a the general public," manager of medical treatment Marcus Savage said.

In the present facility, three beds in a four bed bay often have to be closed to accommodate one heavy patient. Their length of stay is on average four working days greater.  A shortage of much bigger, specialised equipment is also an issue.

The bariatric bedrooms in the new clinic will minimize some of these challenges, but will certainly add an extra $1.67 million to building costs.  "We're getting more people who fit into the bariatric category and need beds like this to manage them properly, and they're getting heavier as well, thus it's a double whammy," Professor Savage said.

"They current serious challenges from a medical point of view.".

Diabetes, stroke, heart disease, pressure sores, mental health problems and an improved chance of hospital-acquired infections are one of the issues.  "Surgery is also a challenge since it's very hard to wake up these individuals up. A great deal of the anasthetic medications dissolve into the added fat deposits tissue and the anasthetists have to keep them in rehabilitation for a lot longer to make certain they wake up safely," he said.

Congratulations to a Business Associate who is a Corporate Client

Access to weight loss surgery in the public system is limited, with nine out of 10 bariatric operations taking place in private hospitals.  Indeed, this month a meeting of Australian surgeons heard that increasingly, obese people are being turned down for lap-band procedures because the risks outweigh the benefits.

"We've refined and industrialized our food source chain to meet these ancestral appetites that are no longer relevant to us and are damaging us." It's as though we have created the whole food chain of supply on the wrong principles - profit and taste - instead of health and sustainability.

Human's evolutionary motivation to use less energy is also sustained by our built environment and vehicle dependence, which in turn reduce our need to use up energy maintaining warm or by being personally energetic.  Saving time and energy is what it is all about when you have a get well soon git delivered.

"All of these points, through nobody's fault, are just stacked together opposing us and it leaves us with this real problem. You need to interfere at all levels and at multiple places in the complex system," he said.

Simpson is leading a new cross-disciplinary approach at the Charles Perkin Center and is well-placed to accomplish so because he has a background in modelling complicated systems and cross disciplinary services.

Now a 'health environmentalist, Simpson commenced as an entomologist, researching the feeding and swarming behavior of grasshoppers.  "I used locusts originally since a model device for developing an entirely new way of thinking about nourishment," he said.  Central to this idea is that creatures need an optimum balance of different nutrient types such as required protein and carb.

PRESS RELEASE MARCH 2015; SYDNEY, NSW, AUSTRALIA

Today we are interviewing the team behind the well establshed fruitbaskets.net.au - a husband and wife team of fruit lovers who have taken their business online and are now able to offer fresh fruit baskets for delivery in Sydney.  What started as a hobby has grown to become a thriving business servicing the corporate sector with get well gifts, thank you gifts and appreciation gifts for delivery.


It makes a lovely contrast to the ubiquitous gift card that has slowly but surely overtaken the gift giving landscape with it's un-branded neutrality and blandness.

We spoke with Bren and Kacy when they were in a particularly jubilant mood, having just returned from a weekend away at a yoga retreat.  Fresh faced, fit and full of vibrant energy, they explained the difference between a gift basket and a gift card - not that it needs explaining, but you get the picture.


"The question, my dear friend, is do we send a gift basket or do we just send a gift card?  It's as old as the internet, really, whether to send a gift card as a gift or to go one step further and make the decision to actually choose the gift yourself and have it sent.

The Gift Card Interview 2015



When my wife and I started out in the gift basket business back in 2007, we made gift hampers for all occasions and life events - in particular the corporate sector.  But then things changed and the drift towards gift cards meant we experienced a change in traffic - people were actually less inclined to be confident and just order - they thought the should offer the recipient the choice of what to receive.

But a gift card reduces the gift immediately to a number - you only have to look at a gift card and the most prominent thing about it is the dollar value.  So you are getting a value, a price tag - not a gift per se.  It's instantly about being judged and compared and being seen as a number or a value.

Hospital Fruit Baskets Delivered



What a real gift giving experience should be about is sharing a gift - an experience of the giver and the reciever - not about giving a chore that is having to go to a particular shop and redeeming a gift card for a crtain price point.  I know myself that seeing a $30 gift card from a big hardware chain store is as much a challenge to find something at that price point as it is about celebrating the precious moment of my birthday or Christmas."

It's clear to see that Bren and Kacy have spent plenty of time thinking about their gift basket business and the whole schemata behind gifting, giving and sharing good thoughts in the form of a physical gift.

You're invited to join them and experience first hand the magic of online shopping and sending a same day gift basket - visit the fruit basket company for more information or order by calling 1300 284 684.

Here, we offer a behind the scenes insight into what makes a bestselling fruit basket and just exactly what it is that's lends some fruit baskets a winning style over the rest of the competition.

There's more then enough reasons to choose a particular fruit hamper from the other fruit baskets - but after working in the gift delivery industry for over a decade, it's nice to know some professionals have got it covered.

Gift basket #Secrets -  Handmade Gives Meaning
When you choose your fruit basket, be mindful that handmade and hand assembled fruit hampers have that personal touch that simply isn't present when you go with a factory-style fruit basket business.

Simply knowing your fruit hamper has been put together by hand with your specific order top of mind means you are most likely to get exactly what you had envisioned - not just a pack and send copy that lacks meaning and personality.

There is something about the quality and service of a handmade fruit basket that fits so well with the whole gift giving idea - it's what inspires and motivates us as fruit basket artisans

In a Fruit Gift basket, chocolate elevates a get well soon thought into a sensitive gesture that covers the boundary of intimacy and genuine feel good feeling.  Sharing chocolate is an age-old practice that cements relationships and strengthens the bonds that tie families, friends and our futures together. 

Making the most of your next chocolate fruit basket sharing occasion is simple using a reputable member of the Australian Fruit Baskets Association – and especially when you choose a recognised award winner with expert knowledge.

Chocolate is made from the seeds of the cacao beans – they are fermented, dried, roasted and hulled – and then the seed meat is ground down and  and melted to make a paste – a chocolate liquor.  When this hardens it is basically unsweetened cooking chocolate. 

This is half cocoa butter and half cocoa solids.  And here is the surprising kicker that sets chocolate apart and gives us all that delicious velvety smoothness – cocoa butter is solid at room temperature but melts in the mouth.

4 - Get Well Free Delivery


It's always a big call - offering FREE delivery and giving back to your loyal customers who support your vision and make your whole business delivering fresh fruit gifts and edible blooms a possibility.

Hospital Get Well Gifts

So we we naturally a little reluctant to go forward and take the big step and offer free shipping and free delivery on fruit baskets and hampers delivered to John Hunter Hospital.

Stats from a recent online e-commerce shopping survey published in a gift baskets industry study show that 58% of customers have added extra newborn baby, celebration, gourmet or sympathy items to their shopping basket in order to qualify for free delivery.

That's pretty impressive - but even more so when you consider the actual real cost of delivery across Sydney to Sydney shipping is around $5 per item (not including the cardboard box or packaging).  And this is when most florists and edible blooms online sellers are targeting around $15 - $19 for a fixed price delivery charge.

Best of 2014 John Hunter Hospital - the review article on #fruitbaskets for sick friends and familyn hospital.  Thanks for being such loyal readers of this blog over the year and keeping in touch - you really do make a difference when we are here typing in the middle of winter thinking about Fruit  and Hampers.  Thanks.

All New Varieties of Fruit


Imperfect fruit tastes just the same as it's perfectly shaped brothers and sisters, yet comes in at nearly a third the price.  It's something that has been said in the past, with the fruit being sent to waste or for animal feed.  Not any more.  Now local fruiterers are flogging misshapen fruit and vegetables in awkward shapes to offer customers more diverse opportunities.

"There's nothing wrong with ugly fruit," says Glenda, a hamper maker,"It tastes the same.  It's like the ugly girl at the dance - her kiss tastes just as good..."

With 270,000 tonnes of popular fruit and vegetable lines thrown out each year, Imperfect Picks will reduce waste, store manager Azum Kalshinob said.  In an article in the local Paper, people are going batty about the cheap but nasty looking fruit.


“The concept comes from a French model,” Mr Kalumbarb said. “The idea is to reduce waste and help our farmers. Thirty per cent of produce is thrown out because it has to be perfect. ”

The small range of marked, discolored and odd-shaped fruit and vegetables appeared two weeks ago and is available at all Harris Farm stores. Each store carries different lines.

“We are selling eight different lines which come from the markets,” Mr Alumthrowi said. “It is good quality produce, it just doesn’t look as good.”

The range is a win-win for customers, Mr Alacadabra said. “Imperfect Picks can be up to half the price of our top lines,” he said.

“Pink Lady apples are selling for $7.99 a kilo, the Imperfect Picks’ Pink Lady apples are $2.99 a kilo.”

Customers have welcomed the new line.

When you order a Fruit Hamper for John Hunter Hospital, you will not be treated to this ugly fruit.  We insist on premium, bouquet style fruit that presents perfectly in the gift basket.

Eating Fresh fruit reduces cardiovascular risks


Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of death and disability in Australia in 2014. Every year, around 65,000 people experience congestive heart failure and 13,000 endure a stroke. But a brand new study finds that the danger of contracting cardiovascular disease could be reduced by up to 40 %, just by eating fresh fruit every day.

I know this may not be news to many of anyone, but it simply highlights the energy of the fruit basket and fresh birthday gifts when you want to send healthy gifts. It's not a big deal to send baby gift baskets made of fresh fruit to celebrate the arrival of a baby - or in the very same breath to share your condolences and understanding when a friend dies.

The fresh fruit basket study team, led by Dr. Guaidonk Duko from the University of Oxbridge in the UK, recently presented their findings at the European Society of Cardiology Congress 2014. The findings were resounding in favor of edible bouquets and get well soon gifts being made from fresh fruits which eating and exchanging healthy gifts makes a difference in manifesting good lifestyles.

The results of their send a basket of fruit research study came from an analysis of 351,992 people from 5 non-urban and five urban areas of Asia who belonged of the China Chinoodir Biobank - a study set up to examine genetic and environmental reasons for chronic illness. It showed that fruit has an impressive effect of restoring gift choices less difficult.

Dr. Duker notes that several research studies have indicated that enhancements in diet and lifestyle, like sharing a free shipping fruit hamper are crucial to minimizing the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). But she points out that most of these studies have come from Western countries, with very few from China. In China giving gift baskets and chocolate covered strawberries as thank you gifts is widespread.

"China has a different pattern of CVD," details Dr. Dupre, "with stroke as the main cause compared to Western nations where ischemic heart illness is more prevalent. Previous studies have combined ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, possibly due to the minimal number of stroke instances in their data sets.".

She adds that provided the difference in threat factors and physiology between ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, the group was particularly interested in how fruit intake influenced the risk of these stroke subtypes.

The more fruit taken each day, the lower the risk of CVD - specifically when integrated with the flourishing and generous giving nature of fruit basket delivery Sydney. Truffles and chocolate bouquets may not encourage in you the most healthy attitude - but when stabilized with edible arrangements and thank you gifts, they do the job.

At the start of the research study, the scientists asked the people how much fresh fruit they consumed. Fruit eating was broken down into five categories: never, monthly, 1-3 days a week, 4-6 days a week and daily.

Baby Hampers Newcastle Delivery


The research displayed that consuming more fruit triggered low amounts of disorder and more popularized feelings of wellness and well being. Get well gifts and fruit basket delivery is not just out the gift box - it's also relating to the pamper hamper, the get well soon gifts and the hampers for men.

Wherever our team advise delivering fresh fruit same day for delivery, fruit basket delivery Sydney is still not really possible without refrigeration and cool room storing. When trying to find thank you gifts and chocolate fruit baskets keep in mind the process used for free shipping and same day shipping.

A huge British superstore establishment is spending รข�¤ 19 million (US$ 31 million) to speed up its fresh produce supply with a multi-store operation to enhance chilling systems, while also forming its production and logistics sites. This helps supply Christmas hampers and gifts for delivery across the UK.

A spokesperson told www.fruitbaskets.net.au the investment formed part of the retailers three-point plan; speeding up, prioritizing and chilling out fresh fruit for fantastic edible arrangements.

Get Well Soon Gifts Newcastle


The main aim is to lengthen the life span of fresh fruit for gift baskets and vegetables by keeping them cool for much longer, and reducing waste in the process. The spokesperson asserted that for every hour an item was un-chilled, it shed eight hours of life in the home - this is really essential when you consider birthday gifts for delivery.

The next fruit I freeze on a regular basis is bananas. I purchase them weekly for the relatives. Sometimes they eat them very quickly and in some cases never. When the bananas start to acquire the dark spots, I don't like them. This is specifically crucial when you re sending a basket for delivery. So, equally as they are, peeling and all, in the refrigerator they go. Remember they will turn black in the fridge freezer but it's only the peeling that alters color. The inside is still ideal. The bananas thaw out quickly. But remember when they thaw, they aren't solid but are great for banana bread and smoothies.

Strawberries are easy to prep and freeze. I just wash, pluck the, stem, slice and drop right into the freezer bag. It's a quick and simple method. Now I have strawberries ready anytime for smoothies or strawberry pretzel salad when requested. Strawberries are a perfect gift box addition to make your pamper hamper look just right.

Apples are a varied story for me. I have a tendency not to freeze them uncooked. I don't like exactly how quickly they turn brown. I know lemon juice will keep them from turning brown, but, in my point of view, they still turn color. I like to prepare them first, then freeze them in my freezer bags. Take some of the numerous fruits in your picnic basket and freeze them.

Fruit Baskets Delivery to Hospital


It gets a little longer in order to prepare and stew them, but it is worth it to have the far better apple flavor and to maintain a good color. This pre-cooking procedure will preserve time later when you fix an apple pie or cobbler. The pieces of fruit only have to melt out and added to the recipe.

Another easy fruit is actually grapes. Simply wash and pop them in the freezer. Now you have a terrific snack and organic sweetener for smoothies and also a great way to keep your white wine chilled without diluting it. Every single fruit hamper has grapes and they are so simple to eat as a snack.

What procedure do you use to freeze fresh fruit that you have received in a fruit gift basket? My preferred is peaches. I love to open the freezer and observe a bag of peaches all set to use. These guys taste so much more desirable fresh compared to from a can. It is the little details that make us gratified.

Sending baby hampers and baby gift baskets is all about fresh fruit and the ranges of fruit you get inside the basket. Baby shower gift ideas are exactly perfect occasions for distributing a fruit hamper. Keeping in mind how powerfully healthy and fresh fruit is - you find yourself in the right location for sending a great fruit basket for delivery.
