Mother\u2019s Day 2020 is this upcoming Sunday. Considering that COVID-19 is causing significant shipping delays for many businesses, it might be harder than normal to find thoughtful last-minute gifts for mom. If Mother\u2019s Day gift baskets were on your list, I have the perfect solution \u2013 GourmetGiftBaskets.com<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gift baskets (of all sorts) make awesome gifts for a variety of occasions. That is why I agreed to review a GourmetGiftBaskets.com product when they reached out to me last week. (My Mother\u2019s Day guides were all finished, but this is the only additional product that I have decided to write about.) I chose a basket to give away for the following reasons: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. I am a food-lover and I know that the recipient (like many of my other readers) is also.
    <\/li>
  2. It\u2019s a thoughtful gift BUT someone else (the company) had already did the heavy-lifting by choosing what works well together in the basket.
    <\/li>
  3. Last, but definitely not least, I wanted to test the delivery speed for myself. (For example, I ordered my mom\u2019s gift a while ago and it took several weeks for her to receive it. I also know that my own Mother\u2019s Day gifts will be arriving late due to shipping delays.) <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Mother\u2019s Day Gift Baskets for Food Lovers <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    I knew that I wanted to send the recipient a food basket. I just didn\u2019t know what she liked. (If it\u2019s your Mom, you should probably know already!) Fortunately, Gourmet Gift Baskets has a wide variety of food baskets \u2013 including breakfast, Italian and kosher ones.

    I asked around and narrowed it down to a fruit, snacks, or meat and cheese basket. Ultimately, I chose the meat and cheese basket because the intended recipient mentioned that she had recently received a fruit basket and various snacks. I appreciated that there were a variety of meat and cheese baskets based on how many items were included. I narrowed my choices down to the following three:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Gourmet Meat & Cheese Sampler ($37.99)<\/li>
    2. Gourmet Meat & Cheese Sampler \u2013 Deluxe ($69.99)<\/li>
    3. Artisan Meat & Cheese Platter \u2013 $99.99<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      For my needs, option #2 was the best because it wasn\u2019t too small or big. It included the following: Stoned Wheat Crackers by Eleanor + Flynn<\/strong>, Sea Salt & Cracked Peppercorn Water Crackers by Eleanor & Flynn<\/strong>, Summer Sausage by Hanover Smokehouse<\/strong>, Garlic Sausage by Hanover Smokehouse<\/strong>, Savory Garlic Cheddar Cheese by Mountain View Cheese Co.<\/strong>, Cheddar Cheese by Vintage Cheese Co.<\/strong>, Monterey Jack Jalapeno Cheese by Mountain View Cheese Co.<\/strong>, Smoked Gouda by Vintage Cheese Co.<\/strong> and Sun Dried Tomatoes by Cucina & Amore<\/strong>. (It sounds like a lot but it\u2019s not too much because the items aren\u2019t full-sized.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Will It Get There in Time?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Since there has been so many physical limitations on deliveries recently, this was one of my top concerns. I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised regarding the timeliness. I received the package only two days<\/strong> after I requested it! The delivery person rang my bell and left the package right outside of my door. It doesn\u2019t get much better than that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If you order by May 8th, Gourmet Gift Baskets guarantees delivery by Mother\u2019s Day.<\/em><\/strong> You still have time to order!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      I was really happy with the experience. Most importantly, the person who received the basket loved it and was very thankful. I call that a win-win!
