Add a few bags of classic movie-time snacks like salted peanuts, raisins, pretzels and soda to the basket. Complete the movie basket with gift certificates to download movies online or to a movie rental store. Holiday Baking Gifts Both seasoned bakers and beginners look forward to baking during the holiday season so baking-themed gift baskets are an excellent idea. Start with a wicker basket and line it with gingham for a charming country look. Use gingham napkins or an apron as a thoughtful addition to the baking basket. You can have them monogrammed as a touch of personalization for the baker. Add essential bakeware like cake pans, muffin trays and pie pans to the basket. There are a wide range of pie pans and baking dishes to choose from. Non-stick bakeware is a great choice as it ensures easy release and makes excellent patterns on pies and tarts. Other than pie pans and regular baking dishes, bakers will also appreciate specialty tools like petit four molds and brioche pans. Help the bakers start up on their baking, by including special ingredients like Mexican vanilla extract and demerara sugar in the gift baskets. Along with these delicious treats, give the baker recipe cards to write down original recipes. You can easily find downloadable templates online to make DIY recipe cards.
