New Year's Gift Baskets Hand-Packed for the Toast

For the host throwing the party, send a red wine basket with chocolate and shortbread so they don't have to plate dessert. For long-distance family, the European Cafe Delight Basket pairs coffee, biscotti, and sweets for a slower January 1st morning. Corporate senders use the Taste of Italy Gourmet Gift Collection for clients they couldn't see before Christmas closures, it lands as a New Year thank-you instead of getting buried in the December pile.

Entry baskets start at $49.99 for smaller thank-yous. The wine and gourmet pairings (Classic Red Wine & Gourmet Treats, Luxe White Wine & Savory Treats, Festive Red Wine & Sweet Treasures) sit in the $99 to $199 range. Premium builds with multiple bottles or upgraded liquor run $200 and up. Any item in any basket can be upgraded by paying the price difference, or build a custom basket from scratch if you want full control over what goes in.

Common Questions

New Year's Gift Basket FAQs

Absolutely, a New Year's basket lands in that fresh-start window after the Christmas rush is over, so it feels like its own moment rather than a duplicate gift. The Gourmet Gifts builds these around celebration staples like sparkling wine pairings and gourmet snacks, the Taste of Italy Gourmet Gift Collection is a great example for someone who's already been gifted chocolates twice over. It reads as a thoughtful "cheers to the year ahead" rather than another holiday box.
We do ship baskets containing wine and champagne to many regions across Canada, with availability confirmed at checkout based on your delivery province. Because there's alcohol inside, an adult of legal drinking age needs to be present to receive it, with government-issued photo ID and an adult signature required at the door. If you're not sure the recipient can be home, our champagne gift baskets page notes which options travel best for the New Year's toast.
The Gourmet Gifts offers same-day delivery in the GTA on orders placed before 4 PM ET, 7 days a week, including the days right around New Year's Eve. Coverage includes Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Markham, Vaughan, Oakville, and Richmond Hill, with our own local delivery van handling every drop-off. Each basket is hand-assembled the same morning, and you'll get live notifications from our local team as your New Year's basket is on its way. For last-minute toasts, our best-sellers collection is the fastest way to pick a crowd-pleaser.
You can upgrade individual items in any basket by paying the price difference, including upgrading the wine or sparkling option to a higher-tier bottle. Items can't be removed or downgraded, but you can also add extras on top of what's already inside. If none of the pre-built options fit, you can handpick every item yourself through our build your own basket tool.
Not at all, the New Year's window is one of the easiest to hit. If your recipient is in the GTA, orders placed before 4 PM ET ship same-day via our local van right up to New Year's Eve. Anywhere else in Canada, next-business-day delivery is available to select at checkout, so a basket like the Festive Red Wine & Sweet Treasures can still make it for the countdown.
The Gourmet Gifts ships New Year's gift baskets across Canada via UPS, with next-business-day delivery available to select at checkout. From British Columbia to the Maritimes, including Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Montreal, Halifax, and Winnipeg, your basket is hand-packed the day it ships and a UPS tracking number is sent the moment it leaves our team. Whether you're sending the Luxe White Wine & Savory Treats Gift Basket for a New Year's Eve dinner or a coffee spread for New Year's morning, UPS business-day transit covers the country (weekends aren't delivery days).
They work beautifully for both, which is why a lot of companies use January as their thank-you window instead of fighting the December gift pile. We've been doing this since 1986, and corporate clients across Canada send New Year's baskets for client appreciation and employee kickoff gifts every year. For larger orders going to multiple addresses, the bulk order form walks you through pricing and branding options.
We have plenty of celebration-style baskets without alcohol, leaning on gourmet snacks, chocolates, and coffee or tea pairings instead. The European Cafe Delight Basket is a popular pick for a quiet New Year's morning at home, packed with treats we've personally taste-tested before including. It still feels festive without putting a bottle in the box.
