It’s no surprise that the most wonderful time of the year is anticipated by people young and old, with fond memories attached to the joyful season of giving. Christmas is a time to be spent with loved ones, to be surrounded by the warmth of good company, great food, and to enjoy holiday treats fit for a royal indulgence.
While “the more the merrier” is a fabulous motto for a traditional Christmas gathering, this year “the smaller the safer” is what we all need to remember for the people in our bubble as the big day arrives. Here are a few things to remind you of the magic of Christmas that can be celebrated, even from afar.
Christmas is simply not done without an abundance of cookies, fruit cakes, and chocolates to bring on a sugar rush that lasts for days. Get creative in the kitchen and send your friends and family boxes full of your homemade treats. You can also consider the Christmas Coffee & Chocolate Gift Basket from Yorkville’s (filled with candy canes, chocolate truffles and more) to deliver boxes of Christmas greetings to dear ones.
What better way to get into the Christmas spirit (pun intended) than with a lovely bottle of wine, or a special bottle of champagne? If you’re looking to make a toast to your amazing friends and family over Zoom calls and Ugly-Sweater-Skype sessions, send them this glorious Chocolate and Champagne Holiday Celebration basket that includes champagne, shortbread cookies, popcorn, hot chocolate and much more.
There’s no joy that compares to seeing swarms of red, white, and green embellishments in every corner of the house while the gorgeous Christmas tree sits, perfectly adorned with beautiful ornaments, and nestling presents underneath. Make the occasion even sweeter with the Vintage Wine Duo Gift Set – the perfect Christmas present with cheese and wine treats for a feast, that your recipient will absolutely adore.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a 9-year-old or a 39-year-old looking forward to a brand-new gaming gadget, Christmas mornings will always be reserved for unwrapping gifts from loved ones. Send your close friends and family The Holiday Party Platter Gift Set that is a wine-salami-cheese-and-cracker extravaganza for the beautiful and merry season of joy.
Be a part of our growing social media family by tagging pictures of your lovely gift baskets with #ChristmasWithYorkvilles on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, and tell us how you’re spending Christmas with your favourite holiday treats!
Halloween is one of the most beloved holidays after Christmas, and for good reason. Who doesn’t love a great Halloween party or a horror movie marathon? Not to mention kids trick-or-treating, their bags filling up with chocolates, candy, and snacks.
For an occasion that is deeply rooted in the concept of community, it can be a little hard to adapt to the new normal that is 2020. But that certainly doesn’t mean that the fun has to stop. Halloween is always special, and this year you can make it a truly indulgent affair with family at home. Skip the grand Halloween events and let the party come to you, with irresistible toffees, truffles and other sweet treats that are perfect for the most chilling night of the year.
Happy Valentine’s Day! If you can, spend some time with that special someone and impress them with a fantastic experience. If you take some time to do a little preparation for this Valentine’s Day, you’re sure to put together something they’ll love. Pairing chocolate with the right wine can bring out the best in both and if you have one in mind, you may want to choose the second to match.
