Designed to welcome people in town for a convention or meeting, these gift baskets add a welcoming touch to a hotel room or check-in table. And because they are made locally, they can all be delivered to area hotels or the convention center.
1. Truffles and Trifles, a kitchen store and cooking school, makes corporate gift baskets as well. The Florida sunshine basket is a Florida-shaped container filled with treats like key lime cookies, hot sauce, seashell-shaped chocolates, and citrus fruits like oranges and grapefruits. The baskets are $65 each and can be delivered throughout Orlando for a flat fee depending on the location. Bulk discounts are available.
2. The Basket Case specializes in custom gift baskets for all occasions. For Orlando Magic fans (or if your group is headed to a basketball game), owner LeAnn McGuinness can assemble an insulated cooler filled with snacks and branded items such as a luggage tag and beverage sleeve. The baskets are $90 each; discounts are available for 25 baskets or more.
3. Farris and Foster's makes chocolate by hand in its Baldwin Park store. In addition to teambuilding classes, the company also offers gift baskets in a range of sizes. The mini basket includes two truffles, a half-pound bag of triple chocolate caramel popcorn, a half-pound bag of chocolate-dipped Oreos or bow ties (chocolate-dipped pretzel bites filled with peanut butter), and one large chocolate-covered pretzel, for $24.95. Delivery is free throughout the Orlando area for orders over $75. Bulk discounts are available.
