There are so many occasions throughout the year for gift giving, besides the regular holiday events. Birthdays, congratulatory events, a friend recovering from illness, a thank you to a party host, or even a just-because are all occasions in which you can demonstrate thoughtfulness. Cookie gift baskets are perfect for any of these events. It’s a fun way to say thanks or I-love-you, is easy on the budget and doesn’t take much time at all.
If you’re not into baking, you can just pick up a nice assortment at the bakery and fill up your basket. If you enjoy baking, you can whip up some cookies and bars in just a couple of hours. The cookie gift basket idea works even for diabetics! All you do is use Splenda(TM), which tastes just like sugar. Visit the Splenda(TM) website for plenty of suitable recipes. Use whole grain flours, oats and other grains which are in the complex carbohydrate category. Avoid dried fruits, as these aren’t on a diabetic patient’s allowed list of foods. You can make chocolate icing with plain unsweetened cocoa and the Splenda(TM) product. Here, it’s also a nice touch to include the recipes, making it easy for your cookie gift basket recipient to reproduce your product of love.
