It’s not just a gift, it’s a delicious gesture of friendship.

Winter is in full swing for many, and that no doubt comes with a host of mixed emotions. Even if you’re not a fan of the colder temps and shorter days, we know how to turn you into a believer.

For a large part of the United States, the winter season is cold, chilly, windy, dark and not overly enjoyable- unless you’re a snow lover. But for those of us who don’t enjoy the frigid temps and flurries, there’s a cozy and delightful surprise trend sweeping the country right now, and it’s guaranteed to brighten the winter doldrums for your friends and loved ones. Enter the Brrr Basket, a delightful assortment of snacks and cozy items. It’s a ray of winter sunshine delivered right to your bestie’s door. Brrr Baskets are filled with your loved one’s favorite snacks, special indulgences, and cozy and warm items for curling up with a book or riding out a blizzard in comfort by the fireplace.

But first and foremost, let’s talk about the snacks. No Brrr Basket is complete without an array of delicious treats. Think chocolate, sweet and savory mixes, comfort foods and other sweet indulgences. The goal is to create a snacking experience that warms both the recipient’s heart and stomach. When assembling your Brrr Basket, consider the recipient’s favorite flavors, snacks and brands. Or, encourage them to be adventurous with some new flavors and products!
