Occasions & Gifts


Whether it's a birthday, a graduation, a wedding anniversary, or Christmas - gifts and treats are beloved by all. Which is why we've decided to list the special treats we can find to help make your choices a bit easier. Treat dad on Father's Day. Find a unusual gift for an England-loving bride, or take your significant other for a very special day out. If it makes me sit up and go "Ooooh!" you'll find it here.


Something to Celebrate? Do it in Style!



Nothing says "Congratulations" like delicious food and a tipple. Whether it's a new home, a promotion, a wedding, birthday, or retirement... send more than a card. Send a gift you'll be remembered for!

Like these fabulously tasty gift sets from Huffkins' Bakery. Situated in the Cotswolds, they know a thing or two about afternoon tea and all that goes with it - which means they have a delicious treat for any occasion and any recipient.


Go ahead.... TREAT YOURSELF!

Love Cheese? Try this: Two hours of non-stop cheese!

This fabulous cheese adventure starts in Mayfair, at the legendary department store Fortnum and Mason, purveyors of cheese since 1707. They sell literally tonnes of Stilton every year, so there couldn’t be a better spot to start the crawl.

In two hours you'll eat your way around cheese toasties, drunk cheeses as well as some firm favourite.

You can treat yourself, but this tasty adventure also makes a great gift!

Head for the Cheese!
