How to put together a 2026 Christmas hamper that Utrecht can be proud of

From budget and quantities to local makers and personalisation: a practical step-by-step plan for the perfect Utrecht Christmas hamper.

A good Christmas hamper doesn't start with the contents, but with the people receiving it. Does your team mainly work in the office or from home? Are there many vegetarians? These two questions already determine half of your choices.

Next, set your budget per hamper. In Utrecht, the sweet spot lies between €35 and €60 excluding VAT. Below €35 it quickly starts to feel thin; above €60 you'll want to add something truly special, such as a drinks box from a local distillery.

Then choose your makers. We work exclusively with Utrecht artisan producers: from brewers in Kanaleneiland to chocolatiers in Lombok. Every product has a story, and that story is exactly what makes a hamper personal.

Finally, personalise with a card in your tone of voice and, if you like, your logo on the sleeve. Little effort, big effect - and it only costs you €1.50 per hamper.

Order in good time. From mid-October, production weeks fill up fast; book in September and you'll have the widest choice in composition and delivery date.
