A Homemade Alternative to the Traditional Hostess Gift
Posted on 25 December 2009 by Hilary
Have you ever been invited to a holiday dinner or celebration at a friend’s house and wanted to bring something other than the expected bottle of wine? A beautifully wrapped basket or box of homemade treats is a delicious alternative to the traditional hostess or thank you gift and sure to put a smile on everyone’s face.
Simply bake a batch of Streusel-Topped Blueberry Muffins from C&H® Sugar, let them cool, and place them in a cloth lined basket. If you’d rather include an assortment of goodies, bake a batch or two of Molasses Ginger Cookies or a loaf of Banana Nut Bread too.
Then, add a little something extra to make the gift complete—you can include small jars of jams, jellies, or lemon curd, a box of herbal teas, or even a votive candle in a decorative holder. Add a festive ribbon, attach a handwritten card, and you have a deliciously unique gift ready for giving!
