Various types of sugar free gift baskets exist. They can include specific treats for dietary reasons, be centered on an activity, or be geared towards a special occasion. Holidays, birthdays, and anniversaries are just a few of the reasons someone may wish to give a gift basket stocked full of sugar free treats.

Gift baskets are routinely given as both personal and business gifts. Traditionally, gift baskets come in various sizes to fit a variety of budgets. Gift baskets can be made using traditional baskets, boxes, or other creative container options, such as canisters, hats, and purses. Different fillers, such as shredded tissue paper and foam, help create eye-catching displays and allow recipients to view all included items.

Sugar free additions to a gift basket don’t have to be traditionally labeled sugar free foods. Foods labeled sugar free make for an easy inclusion in a sugar free gift basket, but adding foods that are naturally sugar free is also possible. These additions can help satisfy a diverse customer base.

Dietary restrictions are often the number one reason for giving sugar free gift baskets. These are especially useful when recipients are diabetic. Sugar free gift baskets suitable for diabetics include sugar free candies, sugar free foods, and other items, including books and magazines related to living a healthy life while controlling sugar intake. Some baskets may also contain gift certificates or gift cards for health food stores.

Sugar free gift baskets are also popular to give when putting together an active group outing. For instance, outings surrounding golf or other sporting tournaments may utilize gift baskets filled with sport specific items and include sugar free treats as gifts and prizes. Including sugar free items and foods in the gift basket ensures the basket can be used by a wide number of individuals and takes into account the various health needs of all participants.

Purchasing a gift basket for specific occasions can help brighten someone’s day and help recipients celebrate in a healthy manner, especially if they are following a low carb or sugar free diet plan. Sugar free gift baskets can be appropriate for a trip home from the hospital or for recovery from a recent surgery. In addition to sugar free treats, other items such as books and crossword puzzles can complete these baskets. Young children may enjoy the addition of a stuffed animal to the gift basket.

WiseGEEK is dedicated to providing accurate and trustworthy information. We carefully select reputable sources and employ a rigorous fact-checking process to maintain the highest standards. To learn more about our commitment to accuracy, read our editorial process.

@heavanet- All you have to do is go to your favorite candy store and tell them which types of sugar-free candy you would like to use to fill a gift basket. The staff should be able to make one that is beautiful and delicious!

@heavanet- If you don't have time or are not sure how to put your own sugar-free gift basket, you can definitely have one made at a candy store. Most candy shops specialize in creating gift basket filled with candy to fit the recipients preferences, including sugar-free gift baskets.

I want to give a sugar-free gift basket to a friend as a gift, but I'm not sure what to put in it nor do I have the time to go candy shopping. Is creating this type of gift basket something candy store employees know how to do?
