Occasions where cheese would make a welcome gift

If you've ever found yourself wondering on what occasions cheese would make an appreciated and appropriate gift, then look no further.

Of course, any cheese lover will probably tell you that any occasion is the right occasion to take cheese, chutney and biscuits, but perhaps some celebrations and occasions are a little bit more appropriate for a cheese hamper than others! For instance, taking gin-infused cheese to a baby's christening might not go down too well. So, when can you give cheese as a gift?

Housewarmings

What could be better than giving the gift of cheese to a couple or family moving into a new home? After the long hard slog of packing boxes and moving them into the new house, being able to sit down and tuck into a luxury cheese hamper filled with cheese truckles, wine and chutney would be absolutely blissful.

So, give the gift of cheese and just wait for the grateful thank you from the weary homeowners!

Birthdays

Of course, you can't go wrong with giving cheese gifts as birthday presents. The only issue will be deciding which flavour to purchase!

Whether it's a set of cheese truckles or a luxury cheese hamper, the gift of cheese will put a massive smile on nearly anyone's face. Especially because after all of the celebrations are over, the cake has been eaten, and the guests have gone home, there will still be a cheesy treat to enjoy afterwards!

Going to university

 Most students that live away from home survive on a combination of 'beans on toast', ready meals and noodles. So, if you want to give a gift to celebrate someone getting into university, then why not send them off with some lovingly crafted artisanal cheeses? Not only will it remind them that good food actually exists, but it will set them up for a cheese and wine night with their dorm/roommates and serve as a good icebreaker for making new friends.

New job

Starting a new job can be stressful, but having cheese and beer to come home to after a long day at a new office might just make the process that little bit easier for your friend or family member. Cheese is a feel-good food which means that the person starting a new job can walk into their new place of employment with a bit of pep in their step – ready to take on the world!

Pregnancy announcement

When someone's eating for two, their hormones are all over the place, so a hamper full of cheese, chutney and cheese biscuits would be more than welcome. Expectant parents can put their feet up after putting the cot together and enjoy a bit of peace before the baby arrives!
