Everyone loves receiving a Christmas hamper; it really is a whole bunch of gifts in one box. Food hampers are always an especial favourite and with so much lovely Norfolk produce to choose from it is a job to know what to put in one! Luckily there are plenty of suppliers who will put together a choice for you to suit taste and pocket. Here are some of our choices.

Jarrold

Jarrold’s famed deli is a treasure house of delights to choose from and its established own-label luxury products also feature in many of the hampers. The store offers a range of imaginatively-themed choices including The Vegan, Tickled Pink and The Beekeeper. Our choice would be the Family Christmas Hamper – something for everyone! From £30 at jarrold.co.uk

Bakers & Larners

The Holt store has been putting great hampers together for a number of years now. Top of the tree is the stunning Regal, packed to bursting with a dazzling array of treats from local whisky and gin, champagne, fabulous cheeses and a list as long as your arm of goodies. It’s £500, but there are choices all the way down to £30. Our pick is the Glad Tidings, a perfect Christmas package at £150. Bakersandlarners.co.uk

Norfolk Deli

Hunstanton’s fine food experts have a great name for delicious Norfolk food and drink and they have been busy assembling some clever hampers for this Christmas. You can, as with other places, choose your own ingredients and make your own up, but we liked the sound of the Normal for Norfolk one at £85, with treats that all come from the county. norfolk-deli.co.uk
