Gourmet List

espemartinez3 asked:


This year, I am in charge of putting together holiday gift baskets for our employees and customers. Each employee must stay within the $75 range and each customer basket must stay in the $150 range. Our company does this every year and we are known for picking only the best foods (gourmet if possible)! In order to stick to the budget, I am having to cut out some of the more expensive items and replace them with still delicious, but less expensive foods.

Here is my list of foods thus far. Any food enthusists are welcome for input! (Also, if you see a certain type of food here that you know of a cheaper brand but same quality – let me know! THX!):

Lake Champlain 5 star bars
