A Glimpse into What’s Included in a Hamper from Crumb & Deli
So, beyond the beautiful packaging, what’s included in a hamper when you choose Crumb & Deli? Our offerings draw from the very best of our bakery and deli, alongside carefully sourced products from the UK and wider afield. Here’s a breakdown of the delectable possibilities:
Savoury Sensations
- Artisan Cheeses: A cornerstone of our deli, our cheese counter boasts an impressive selection of UK and Continental cheeses. From creamy brie to sharp cheddar and intriguing blue varieties, we source from local and international dairies. A selection of these fine cheeses often forms the heart of our savoury hampers.
- Premium Charcuterie: Complementing our cheeses, we can include a variety of cured meats, perfect for creating a sophisticated spread. Imagine thinly sliced prosciutto or robust salami, ready to be enjoyed.
- Gourmet Nibbles & Crackers: To accompany the cheeses and charcuterie, we can add a selection of gourmet crackers, olives, chutneys, and other delicious nibbles that perfectly round out a savoury experience.
- Hearty Deli Favourites (where appropriate): While our daily specials like homemade soups, lasagne, chilli, and quiches are typically hot, we can discuss incorporating elements that evoke these flavours or include shelf-stable items that reflect our commitment to delicious, wholesome food. Think artisan sauces or spice blends.
Sweet Treats & Bakery Delights
- Freshly Baked Cakes & Morning Goods: No hamper is complete without something sweet. Our daily delivery of freshly made cakes and morning goods means you can include anything from decadent brownies and classic Victoria sponges to flaky croissants and pastries.
- Nostalgic Bread Pudding: Our renowned bread pudding has quickly gained a reputation for its comforting, nostalgic flavour. Sold in generous blocks, it’s a fantastic inclusion for those who appreciate traditional, homemade treats.
- Artisan Biscuits & Confectionery: Beyond our own bakery, we can source specialty biscuits and unique confectionery items to add an extra touch of indulgence.
Beverages
- Italian Blended Espresso: For the coffee lover, we can include bags of our delightful Italian blended espresso (ground or whole bean, depending on preference) for them to enjoy at home.
- Gourmet Cold Drinks: A selection of unique soft drinks, artisan juices, or sparkling beverages can also be included to complete the refreshment offering.
Curated Themes: What’s Included in a Hamper for Specific Occasions?
Our flexibility means we can curate hampers for almost any event or celebration. Here are a few popular themes and what’s included in a hamper for them:
- The “Chilli, BBQ & Cheese Loving Dad” Hamper: This popular option, perfect for Father’s Day or a birthday, focuses on robust flavours. Expect speciality cheeses, chilli-infused snacks, BBQ-inspired sauces or rubs, and perhaps some artisan crisps.
- The Summer Picnic Hamper: As we move into summer, our picnic service is in full swing. A picnic hamper could include traditionally filled rolls and baguettes, a selection of cheeses and charcuterie, fresh fruit, perhaps some of our famous Scotch eggs, and refreshing cold drinks – ideal for a day at the beach or a sunset picnic.
- The Sweet Indulgence Hamper: For those with a sweet tooth, this hamper would heavily feature our freshly baked cakes, bread pudding, artisan chocolates, gourmet biscuits, and perhaps some specialty teas or coffees.
