The thing that all major holidays have in common is great food. Every holiday has special dishes and treats that are involved in the celebration, and food has become inextricably associated with celebrations. As a result, food itself can be given as a gift, and things like gourmet food baskets have become very popular as a gift for almost any special occasion.

Gourmet food baskets can vary widely in their look and the contents of the basket. Technically, some gourmet food baskets are actually boxes or crates. The food and the decorations all depend on the occasion for the gift. For Christmas, gourmet food baskets are covered in reds and greens, and contain toys and stuffed animals in addition to food. Gourmet food baskets for Easter tend to be pastel with Easter candy, while gourmet food baskets for the Fourth of July are covered in red, white and blue and maybe even a few sparklers. The trend continues for all the major holidays. Many shops also make customizable gourmet food baskets for birthday parties.

The food in gourmet food baskets is usually sweet. Chocolate is almost universal in gourmet food baskets, and many different kinds of candy and treats are also included. Some candy companies make their own gourmet food baskets to promote their products. Some other gourmet food baskets focus more on snack foods or even whole meals. The food can even be specific to the region or culture.
