Why Food Hampers Are The Way To The Heart This Valentine’s Day

 

Here at Pretty Green, we feel that Valentine’s Day is not just for lovers. It’s a day where all relationships can and should be celebrated! Luckily for you, and whoever you choose to spend the day with, we have some pretty delicious food hampers for you and your favourite. Check out our top seven food hampers perfect for Valentine’s Day.

 

1. You’re My Jam 

Breakfast hamper with coffee, granola, jam and cacao spread

Knock your lover's socks off with something they won't expect, a breakfast in bed combo for the ages. The king of romance or queen, has hit the building. It doesn't get much better than this on a lazy Sunday morning let us tell you. But hey, if you don't have a lover this time around - spoil your roommate instead. You both deserve it.

Jam packed (literally) with delicious treats, your V Day will be off to a pretty good start. Whip out The Twins Pantry’s Honey Berry Granola with a side of toasted sourdough, and  spread some of Lori's Wholesome Pantry Choc Cacao Watermelon Seed Butter and Jam Lady Jam’s Raspberry Grappa all over. You won't be disappointed. Don’t forget the coffee! Included is the Barrel One Coffee Roaster’s Honey Pot Blend, a sweet, creamy flavour that'll kickstart your day better than the rest.

 

2. I’m My Valentine 

Self love hamper with chocolate, tea and bath salts

 

Who said Valentine's Day is just for lovers? Nah, we're not about that. If you’re on your own, we reckon you should treat yourself for sure.  It’s just as important to celebrate your relationship with yourself, so why not give yourself a bit of extra love this V Day! The 'I’m My Valentine' food hamper is the ultimate self-care vibe. Draw yourself a bath and sprinkle some of Maple and Mint’s Jasmine and Rose Bath Salts. Relax and listen to your favourite playlist, whilst enjoying a warm cup of T Totaler’s Organic Relax Tea. And have a few cheeky nibbles of the limited edition Hey Tiger Co and Flex Mami collaboration chocolate bar that comes with three question cards, all for you.

 

3. Best Mates Forever 

Best friends hamper with wine, wine holder and chocolate

 

Best mates count as soul mates too! From celebrating your big wins to being there when you need them most, they've always got your back. So let us help you help make your mates feel special. The 'Best Mates Forever' food hamper is made up of all sorts of goodies that will definitely lead to having a blast. Pour yourselves a smooth glass of The Wild One Shiraz by Dirty Candy and share a block of the delicious ‘Best Mates’ Caramelised Popcorn and Coconut Chocolate by Hey Tiger. We don't reckon there's a better match out there than wine and chocolate!  Add some extra fun with Flex Mami’s reflex cards that aim to spark authentic conversations between you and your mates.
