We have a few close couples that we do things with regularly and we exchange gifts each year, but we do it as a couple rather than buying individual gifts. It can be a challenge coming up with ideas that everyone will enjoy so we try to put a few favorites for each person along with gifts that they can both enjoy. 

When we created this holiday gift basket for two, we wanted there to be something for everyone including the kids while making the focus on the adults. We added a selection of Chocolat Frey candies because you know everyone in the house is going to crazy for these.

Then we added in some bath products for her, a scented candle they could both enjoy, some tea and some socks for each of them. If your friends enjoy coffee or hot chocolate, you could include that instead.

Chocolat Frey® uses only authentic, GMO-free ingredients including rich cocoa beans, whole roasted nuts, and milk. They value sustainability and all the chocolate is UTZ certified.

Plus, they support sustainable cocoa farming that provides better opportunities for farmers, their families, and our world. Today Chocolat Frey® is the #1 chocolate brand in Switzerland!

If you’re looking for a premium chocolate brand to include in your gift baskets, you need to check out Chocolat Frey. I had a chance to sample a few of the chocolates as I was putting the gift basket together and there is just NO comparison to other brands.

It’s rich and creamy and absolutely decadent. We love giving our gift baskets in a wicker basket because it’s reusable after the treats are gone to hold towels, magazines or DVDs.

Chocolat Frey Napsli can be found at Sam’s Clubs across the country. 80 delicious individually wrapped authentically Swiss milk and dark chocolate pieces for only $9.99. You can find them here:

  3. $55.00 would be a lot of lovely chocolates. I’d want included this item: Chocobloc Milk Mini Bars Stand Up Bag (5.3oz).  It sounds great as do the orange chocolates and the pralines.  Not a big fan of dark chocolate but I do love milk chocolates and white chocolates.

  5. Oh my! I always try to win chocolate for my dad at Christmas and he would just love any of these. I haven’t seen him turn down any chocolate ever but think he would like something crunchy with nuts like the Aura Collection- Almond Intrigue. My mom likes almonds too so maybe he’ll share. It’s his 81st birthday this month too, so I need to get him lots of great gifts this year!
