Gluten-Free Gift Hampers For Coeliac Awareness Week 7-13th June 2021

Gluten-Free Gift Hampers For Coeliac Awareness Week 7-13th June 2021

As coeliac awareness week commences and I was researching for this blog, I was surprised to find that 1 in 10 family members are coeliac. This really did make me think when buying someone a gift it may pay to check their dietary requirements. You don’t want to be buying them a hamper full of food they won’t be able to eat and appreciate! Check Batenburgs gluten-free gift hampers for some delicious inspiration, delivered NZ wide.

Coeliac disease occurs when there is destruction to the lining of the bowels. This means it is harder to absorb nutrients from food. This can cause a number of adverse side effects as well as not being able to eat gluten.

When purchasing a gift for someone who is gluten-free or coeliac your first thought may be to avoid getting them a gift with food in it in order to avoid the stress that comes along with making sure all the items are gluten-free. But just because someone is gluten-free doesn’t mean they wouldn’t love a food gift or hamper. There are still plenty of foods for them to enjoy!

If you know they enjoy food you may spend a while searching for the right foods that are gluten-free to add to your gift. This can take time and be frustrating. This is why us here at Batenburg’s Gift Hampers have created this special blog post for Coeliac Awareness Week which begins on this week on the 7th of June to help with gifting to those who are gluten-free.

We have provided you with our top tips for gluten-free foods to put in a hamper for a picnic or to go by themselves as well as a selection of our best gluten-free hampers which have been carefully crafted with great tasting quality food and wine for everyone to enjoy.

For those who are gluten-free or coeliac their lives have become accustomed to checking food labels for gluten or asking whether certain foods have gluten in them. This means they will appreciate the thought and time that has gone into a gluten-free gift you have created for them. Even better for you, Batenburg’s has done everything for you so you don’t need to be stressed by making a gift gluten-free and neither do they!

Taking Someone on a Picnic

Whether going on a picnic with some of your best friends or taking someone you really like on a first date the food is one of the most important parts!  

We have provided a list of the top 5 best gluten-free snacks to take on a picnic. These can be placed into a hamper with some other goodies or can be purchased separately.

  1.  Camembert Cheese in a Sealed Tin

Cheese is a perfect snack food to take on a picnic and especially when it’s in a sealed tin so you can take it to your desired picnic location very easily!

     2.  Ceres Organic Brown Rice Crackers

For the perfect pairing with your camembert cheese make sure to add some crackers.

     3.  Pesto Sauce

To create a superb picnic a cracker topped with cheese and pesto is a sure way to make it a good time!

    4. Salted Caramel Popcorn

Want to add a yummy sweet treat for the picnic? This popcorn is sure to hit the spot!

    5.  Pistachio Nuts

Pistachio nuts are loved by many and can add a bit of healthiness to your picnic.
