Ideas, please, for a mail order gift for a foodie

[rubyhorse]

Hello - I owe my neighbours a really nice gift, as they stepped in when DH was away and my waters broke - took me to hospital, stayed with older children, got them ready for school, school run...

I know that they are both real foodies, but that neither of them has a sweet tooth. Could anyone recommend some really good mail order treats that I could have delivered as a surprise, please? I know they're only down the road, but shopping IRL is a bit tricky with a newborn :-).

Something from fortnum & mason?

What fab neighbours btw!

There's a compay that delivers a different spice mix each month.

I'll have a goolge in a bit.

Foxs spices do the loveliest kits - garlic lovers, chilli lovers,Indonesian kit etc.

They don't have a website but don't be alarmed by that- they're just a bit old school! If you phone them for a catalogue, they send one very quickly.

Have used Forman & Field before and was great. Had it delivered to me so can vouch for quality

What about a cheese box/hamper

I was going to suggest that cheese company too. I've had a few selections from them and have never been disappointed.

I like Biscuiteers stuff - very pretty boxes of fancy biscuits

Thanks, everyone. I'm making myself hungry now.

And yes, they were pretty fab.
