Foodie Gift Pyramids

Yesterday I wrote about some of the world's most expensive foodie gifts. Today I'm taking it down a notch by mentioning mid priced foodie gifts. These are usually those fun pyramids and baskets filled with every kind of treat from hams to nuts, cookies to popcorn. They're not only great for the receiver, they're excellent for givers on a budget. For a certain price you can give a lush looking gifts for only a few pennies.

One of the oldest and most famous is Hickory Farms. It started in the late Forties with Richard Ransom and his cousin, Earl, started to sell cheese wheels and summer sausage at home shows in Toledo. It paid off. Today the e company offers baskets and pyramids along with boxes of just truly yummy foods. For one hundred dollars you can send family and loved ones the snack tower which has everything from their signature beef sticks to smoked cheeses to almonds along with sauces and mustards. You can also give gift packages that just feature cooked ham and turkey or ones that features sweets. Another great company is Figi's They have a variety of different baskets and pyramids that features flavored cheeses and sausages.

For those sweet toothed foodies think about a nice pyramid of cookies and brownies. Blue Chip Cookies which produces the best chocolate chip ever has a holiday cookies pack with customer faves. Cheryl's Cookies offers a huge variety of home baked sweet treats. Their pyramids offer an entire kitchen of holiday faves from richly iced brownies to buttery spice balls. They also make rich butter cookies frosted with an even richer frosting. Of course there are fruits you can send as well Harry and Davids offers healthier treats such as a pyramid of pears and apples. They also sell oranges,perfect for the cold weather.

You can give a food pyramid for a good cost this Christmas or Hanukkah. It can be savory or sweet, decadent or healthy. Whatever you give it's a lot of treats for an affordable price.
