A grocery basket is a gift appropriate in most cases. There you can put toys, fruits, sweets, beer - it all depends on who the gift is addressed to. Of course, a basket intended for a man differs in composition from that intended for a woman. And since modern stores have a wide selection of products, you can put together a truly chic set for any occasion. What exactly can be put in the basket and how to properly arrange it is described below.
Range
Most often, meat, cheese products and alcohol are put in men's sets. You can make a separate sausage and meat, separately - a cheese or mixed basket.
If you focus on meat products, you should definitely take into account that its shelf life is most often small (the exception is, perhaps, smoked sausage).
Therefore, you need to purchase all the necessary components on the eve or on the day of delivery. The same applies to cheese - it has at least an expiration date and a longer one, but it is still small. For the decoration of the meat set suitable: carbonade, rings of Krakow sausage, hunting sausages, neck, brisket, smoked, half-smoked, milk and doctor's sausage.
It will be appropriate to add two grapes and a couple of bottles of red wine with a rich taste to the cheese for a gourmet man.
Strong alcohol is suitable for the sausage basket - high-quality vodka will complement the set.
Seafood is good for their lover, so if your one is one of them, it’s right to include various kinds of marine inhabitants - mussels, octopuses, crab meat, shrimp.
It is better not to take frozen foods, there is a high probability of their defrosting.Although if the delivery is planned where it is possible to immediately put the freeze in the cold, it is quite possible to include them in the set.
Seafood is usually consumed with white wine, so an excellent solution would be to add a couple of bottles of Italian or French drink to the formed set.
For a beer lover, collecting a basket is even easier - 6 bottles of beer (dark or light, depending on the preferences of the donee), chips, crackers, nuts, crackers, you can drop the original opener in the same place, and if you are connected with the donee on friendly or friendly terms - put flash drive with his favorite series.
If you need to give a gift to a person with a status, you can focus on such a set: a bottle of good cognac aged for at least 5-7 years, a can of high-quality coffee, bitter or milk (or both) chocolate and a couple of fragrant lemons.
If a person smokes, you can add a couple of Cuban cigars to the basket.
You can give your friend a coffee basket a hand-made basket: a couple of varieties of elite grain or ground coffee, a package of marshmallows, cream, cinnamon. There you can put a beautiful mug or a dozen of original paper cups. And if he’s also a sweet tooth, by the way there will be donuts, cinnabon buns or large curly gingerbread cookies.

Dressing
Do I need to decorate a men's gift basket with food? A moot point, it’s better not to overdo it with the decor. If the delivery is planned for the New Year, then the maximum that should be done is to wrap a little tinsel on the handle or put a few small Christmas balls in the basket. On February 23, a professional holiday or birthday, it is better to limit yourself to a greeting card enclosed inside. The basket itself is a pretty enough gift.
Many men do not like excessive design, consider it inappropriate in relation to themselves. Therefore, if you are not sure that the decor will be taken for granted, do not decorate the gift more than is required.
How to give?
And now you have decided on the assortment and collected your basket. Now you need to properly present it. On the one hand, it is a convenient gift, because it is already packed. If you hand the basket to a colleague, you can simply leave it on his desktop. As for the leader, the situation is more complicated. It is necessary to present the gift personally, preferably being sure that it will be perceived correctly.
For a birthday, the basket (like other presents) is handed personally. Or, if your presence is impossible for any reason, it is transmitted with a courier and an enclosed postcard.
On February 23, professional holidays also need to present gifts yourself, possibly accompanying the transmission with a small congratulatory speech.
