Build Your Perfect Easter Basket with Walkers Shortbread

Now is the perfect time to start planning a favorite gift basket – the Easter gift basket! From luxurious spa gifts to sophisticated spring candles, get inspired with these fun adult Easter gifts everyone will love.

Treat your friends and family to everything they deserve this holiday with the gift of renewal and relaxation. A scented candle is a great starter for any basket. We love a soy wax with floral motifs and light scents for spring like blends of lavender, fresh cut lilacs, eucalyptus, bergamot, geranium and gardenia.

Cashmere sleep masks (because who doesn’t love a good night’s sleep), cozy socks, and calming bath salts are some other go-to’s when building your perfect Easter gift basket. Bath salts by Susanne Kaufmann are always a great way to bring on the feeling of renewal with a good soak. Another tip: transform everyday rituals with a touch of luxe, like these soft silk hair ties, an elevated yet practical addition to many a basket. Fun fact: these ties just so happen to mimic the shape of a bunny's ears for that festive Easter touch!

Bonus to adult Easter baskets is the inclusion of the gift of booze, like this delicious 2019 Villa Amalia Rosé to get ready for summer, a bottle of red to keep things classic, or bottles of small batch liquors – a great option for your cocktail-loving compadres.

Of course they'll also need something to snack on, too, so adding a box of gourmet assorted bonbons by the renowned chef and chocolatier Jacques Torres, or a delicious assortment of macarons by Ladurée is always a good option. And never ever forget the essential Walkers Shortbread pure butter shortbread… Walkers Mini Bags, to Snack Packs, to our 3D boxes (like this adorable limited-edition Walkers 3D Bunny Assortment), to Scottie Dogs and Animal Shapes Shortbread, Walkers Scottish cookies pair deliciously with any assortment you may have in mind.

Keep these simple tips in mind when arranging your basket: place your largest items first, either starting at the back or in the center of your basket. Use extra filler or tissue if you need to prop things up from the back, and continue to add items organized from largest to smallest.

If you want to bypass the task of compiling your own basket, delight them just the same with our Easter Gift Bag, a lovely way to share goodies with loved ones this holiday. These delicious treats come delivered in a high-quality jute bag, perfect for everyday use.
