Afternoon tea gift hamper

An afternoon tea gift hamper is a traditional British gift and appropriate for nearly all occasions. Send one as a showstopper at street parties, for Mother's Day, birthdays, anniversaries, bridal showers, thank you's, for a retirement, leaving do, or summer holidays. They pack up well and can be taken to the park or other beauty spots and enjoyed outdoors (just bring a flask of boiling water or make your tea in advance). Most include jams and Cornish clotted cream to enjoy on your favourite scones, fresh from the bakers.

Pairings for cream tea hampers

An afternoon tea or cream tea hamper makes the perfect gift for a variety of occasions. Ideal for birthdays, anniversaries, or Mother’s Day, it’s also a thoughtful way to say "thank you" or celebrate a new home. Our classic Afternoon Tea Hamper is a beautifully presented gift filled with hand-picked British treats. Firstly, it wouldnt be an Afternoon Tea Hamper without scones, and here the recipient will love the All Butter Sultana Scones; made with buttermilk for a light, fluffy texture. They can then get to work creating their "scones, jam & clotted cream" masterpiece! We've included Rodda's Cornish Clotted Cream plus a delicious award-winning Plum, Pear & Apple Jam. Serve on a cold or warm scone with a cup of freshly brewed English Breakfast Tea. And while this neatly packed hamper is small in size and ideal for a single recipient, there is also plenty to share between 2 or 3 people. Ideal to enjoy at home, in the garden or on a picnic.

Afternoon tea hamper delivery

Knowing when to send your gift is often just as important as what you’re giving. A cream tea hamper can be enjoyed all year round, indoors or outdoors as the weather permits. But, if you want to ensure the gift is there in time to be used on their special day, we recommend arranging delivery for a day or two before. This will allow for redelivery if they are out during the first attempt. Don’t worry our courier will keep everything secure in between visits should they need to re-attend the property. Gifting before their big day will also give them an opportunity to plan how they’ll use it and prevent them from needing to be home on their special day to collect.

Send an afternoon tea hamper

However late you leave your tea gift hamper delivery, we can still sort something for you - even as quickly as the next day. In most cases, if you order before lunch, we can get it to them one day later; on Saturdays too! That adds another layer of flexibility and might even make our afternoon tea hampers your go-to last-minute gift! Need help making your arrangements?
