Festive indulgence with the Christmas Eve Nibbles hamper
We’ve put together the Christmas Eve Nibbles hamper as the perfect accompaniment for an indulgent, treat-filled Christmas eve night in.
The willow tray is overflowing with savoury treats – contents to counter of all the sweet treats to be enjoyed on Christmas day.
Unpacking and laying out the contents of this hamper will give you a delicious ‘delivered to their door’ after-dinner platter.
There are truckles of cheese, duck rillette, a box of sourdough crackers, and a special chutney…so much more than your usual ‘cheese and biscuits’.
The complementary bottle of red wine not only brings out the best flavours in the cheese, but also goes perfectly with the additional nibbles of stuffed olives, nuts, spiced salami and crisps.
A winter wonderland of wonderful delights
Our special Christmas suppliers
We are delighted to have contributions from a number of our wonderful suppliers, in this specially curated Christmas Eve hamper. Let us tell you more about each of the amazing products all inspired by a 'cosy winter evening in'.
Cheese
For the cheese connoisseurs, we have chosen, not one, but two truckles from the award-winning Snowdonia Cheese Company and also from family-run Lincolnshire business - Mouse House.
The blue wax-coated Rockstar is their first ever vintage cave-aged Cheddar, matured in Welsh slate caverns in the heart of Snowdonia.
The Mouse House black wax-coated cheese is a smooth, creamy mature cheddar cheese with cracked black pepper and indulgent truffle flavours throughout. This is one of their most popular flavours and for a good reason!
Charcuterie
“Duck rillette?”, we hear you ask. It’s a delicious rustic pate – made with hand-reared pork from a farm in Cornwall. Learn more about the Cornish Charcuterie, run by husband and wife team, Richard and Fionagh Harding.
We have also included Tempus Charcuterie, founded in Surrey by MasterChef's Dhruv Baker and Tom Whitaker. This Great Taste award-winning, black pepper flavoured salami is made using only the finest quality meat and ingredients, and cured using the French style of a saucisson sec. It is a truly magnificent nibble on its own or adds to a delicious hand baked cracker.
Chutney & crackers
Your lucky recipient (or you and your partner – what’s wrong with a bit of self-indulgence after all?), will also find Tracklement's Caramelised Onion Chutney - which is utterly moreish and will enhance every ‘cheese and biscuit’ bite.
Plus, there are very special swedish-inspired fig and spelt sourdough crackers, from Peter's Yard. And also our Teriyaki Mochi Rice Bites by Mr Filbert's - deliciously crunchy, and perfect for tucking into whilst enjoying your favourite Christmas eve drink.
Christmas eve nibbles - Nuts, olives & crisps
Need even more nibbles? Then our chilli and garlic olives from the groves of Spain will not disappoint.
There are also a very special 'cocktail mix' of nuts to enjoy.
This pouch offers a fantastic mix of flavours: salted cashews and macadamias, chilli peanuts, smoke seasoned almonds and caramelised sesame peanuts.
And finally, we have our hand-fried cheddar and caramelised onion crisps from Yorkshire Crisps. We just know the pack won't make it until Christmas morning - they are so moreish.
Wine
Finally, it’s important to have the most delicious red wine to enjoy with the amazing array of products to eat.
Gauchezco is a really special wine producer from Mendoza in Argentina – learn more about the cowboys and their vineyard here.
The 100% Malbec included in the Christmas Eve Nibbles hamper is a full-bodied red wine, known for its plump, dark fruit flavours and smoky finish. It really does draw out the flavours in the cheese, crackers, olives and more.
