For a change from my usual beauty reviews, I thought it would be fun to talk about fun treats I recently received — yum!
GourmetBaskets.com sent me a couple of really neat candy and popcorn gift ideas that are perfect for Halloween and Thanksgiving.
Haunted House Halloween Gift Tower ($39.99 USD) — It’s time to eat, drink, and be scary! Inside this fang-tastic four-tiered tower, your little monster will discover a variety of otherworldly treats they’ll find impossible to resist. Complete with ghostly good gourmet popcorn, chilling chocolates, and scarily sweet candies, this spooky arrangement is the perfect way to make this Halloween memorable!

What I think: It came out of the box tied with festive ribbons and was so adorable. All three of my daughters wanted to take a box to store treasures in, but I told them it’s a perfect Halloween decoration! I might let them have the boxes later, though.
It has a great candy variety, something for every taste. I ate a few Tootsie Rolls and my kids dug in, too! The popcorn is a neat treat as well! I think this is perfect for grandparents or aunts and uncles to send for family that are far away. Also fun for your own family. Mine sure loved it!
Don’t forget about Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving Popcorn Feast ($34.99 USD) — Experience Thanksgiving dinner like you never have before with this collection of outrageous flavors! Using our perfectly crisp handcrafted popcorn, we’ve recreated our favorite holiday tastes, including tart Cranberry Sauce, succulent Turkey, and sweet Apple Pie! And the best part of this delicious feast? Not a single dish to worry about afterwards.
Popcorn Flavors Inside:
• Turkey
• Stuffing
• Gravy
• Garlic Mashed Potatoes
• Herb Roasted Vegetables
• Buttered Corn on the Cob
• Cranberry Sauce
• Pumpkin Pie
• Apple Pie
• Strawberry Cheesecake
* Each flavor of popcorn is packaged in a sealed bag for freshness. Each bag is filled with approximately two cups of popcorn.
What I think: This is a crazy fun idea! This popcorn is gourmet and the flavors are so original. We have tried a few of the flavors already — Turkey, Herb Roasted Vegetables, Pumpkin Pie and Strawberry Cheesecake. They were all really good! Pumpkin Pike is my favorite so far, but I’m still trying them!
This would be perfect to send a family member who is not going to be able to make it home for Thanksgiving — maybe a college student or a military man or woman. They can share the popcorn and think of you!
Both of these great gifts and so many more are available at GourmetBaskets.com. I highly recommend this site because of the great packaging and quality ingredients!
