I need to send a hamper which can be shared between recipients that include Muslims. No idea how practicing. So pork and alcohol can be included, but shouldn't be the focus. While I want the contents to be good quality, I also want there to be plenty to share out. Budget £100-£150. Must arrive by Friday 22nd.

Never sent a hamper before. No idea where to look. Any suggestions?

Rather than a hamper in basket what about a grocery shop of treats. So for example, Sainsbury's, choose whatever you want and have it delivered to them.

John Lewis, Waitrose or M&S do lovely hampers.

If you want stuff that looks fancy. An order of Selfridges or Harvey Nichols food gets packaged so nicely it's almost like a hamper.
But obviously your money doesn't go far.

I would 100% do what @tdino suggested and just send a selection of boxed chocolates, biscuits, dried fruit & nut selections, maybe some bottles of wine or fizz, sweets, etc from either Waitrose or M&S normal online shopping. Or Booths if you are in the north. The value of the contents of hampers is usually low compared to the cost and no one wants the container as another piece of clutter.

That way you get no random stiff like pickled walnuts!

Yes, the wicker basket is a substantial part of the cost! But as it's a personal gift of thanks for professional services I want it to look nicer than a groceries order. Don't have to be in a traditional basket, just to look gift-like.
