A grocery basket is a gift that is appropriate in most cases. There you can put toys, fruit, candy, beer - it all depends on who the gift is addressed to. Of course, a basket designed for men differs in composition from that intended for women. 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 in the men's sets put meat, cheese products and alcohol. You can make separately sausage and meat, separately - cheese or mixed basket.
If you dwell on meat products, then it is necessary to take into account that its shelf life is often small (the exception is, perhaps, smoked sausage).
Therefore, it is necessary to acquire all the necessary components on the eve or on the day of delivery. The same applies to cheese - it has at least a longer shelf life, but it is still small. For the decoration of the meat set fit: chop, Krakow sausage rings, hunting sausages, neck, brisket, smoked, half-smoked, dairy and doctor sausage.
For a gourmet male, it would be appropriate to add two varieties of grapes and a couple of bottles of red wine with a rich taste.
Strong alcohol will suit the sausage basket - high-quality vodka will complement the set.
Seafood is good for their lover, so if your donee is one of them, it would be right to include in the set different kinds of sea creatures - mussels, octopus, crab meat, shrimp.
It is better not to take frozen foods, there is a high probability of them being defrosted. Although if the delivery is planned where there is an opportunity to immediately put the frost 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 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 also throw the original opener, and if you have friendly or friendly relations with the donee flash drive with his favorite TV series.
If you need to give a gift to a person with status, you can stop at this set: a bottle of good brandy with an aging time of at least 5-7 years, a can of high-quality coffee, bitter or milky (or both) chocolate and a couple of fragrant lemons.
If a person smokes, you can add to the basket a couple of Cuban cigars.
It is possible to give a friend a coffee lover a basket assembled with his own hands: a couple of varieties of fine grain or ground coffee, a package of marshmallows, cream, and cinnamon. There you can also put a beautiful mug or a dozen originally designed paper cups. And if he is also a sweet tooth, donuts, cinnabon buns or big curly gingerbreads will fall in the way.

Dressing
Do I need to decorate a men's gift basket with food? The question is controversial, it is better not to be zealous with the decor. If delivery is planned for the New Year, then the maximum that should be done is to wind a little tinsel on the handle or to put some small Christmas balls in the basket. On February 23, a professional holiday or birthday is better to limit yourself to a greeting card inside.A basket in itself is a pretty beautiful gift.
Many men do not like excessive design, consider it inappropriate 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 hand?
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 are handing the basket to a colleague, you can simply leave it on his desktop. As for the head, the situation is more complicated. It is necessary to present the gift in person, preferably being confident that it will be perceived correctly.
For your birthday, the basket (as well as other gifts) is presented in person. 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 on their own, possibly accompanying the transfer with a small congratulatory speech.
