Rakhi Gifts for Brothers & Sisters

ripegifts — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 16:34:09 +0000

Raksha Bandhan is a Hindu celebration of the bond between brother & sister. This year’s Raksha Bandhan, also known as Rakhi, will be celebrated on August 24th. Traditionally, sisters tie a coloured thread on their brother’s wrists and brothers give their sisters a gift in return.

To celebrate this tradition, we have created Rakhi gifts for both brothers and sisters. Both are only £32, including delivery to mainland UK addresses.

Our “Dear Brother” Rakhi Gift features a gift-boxed decorative Rakhi thread, an assortment of delicious freshly-made mithai and a beautiful Rakhi card. Our “Sweet Sister” Rakhi Gift features an adorable little bag with traditional mithai, beautifully crafted marzipan fruits and quality Rakhi Card nestling between sheets of lavender tissue paper.

Since our mithai is freshly made-to-order, we recommend that you place your orders by Friday, August 20th to ensure availability. Happy Rakhi!

New Halal Gift Basket Range – Not Just For Eid!

ripegifts — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 20:21:27 +0000

Company Press Release

Ripe Gifts (www.ripegifts.co.uk), the UK’s vegetarian hamper specialists, have announced the launch of their new Halal gift basket & hamper range. The range has been specially designed for observant Muslims, ensuring that all products are free from forbidden (haram) additives or alcohol.

While the company had previously created Halal hampers just for Eid, the expanded range includes Halal gifts for any occasion, including birthdays, romantic occasions, Aqiqah and Iftar. The company also offers a bespoke gift service, allowing customers to create their own Halal gift basket according to their own taste and budget.

As Ripe Gifts’ MD, Eddy Harding, explained, “We realised that it’s quite difficult to find gift baskets online in the UK that meet strict Halal requirements. Even products that are labelled vegetarian or vegan often contain haram additives or alcohol. We wanted to create a range of gifts that would both meet Halal requirements, and deliver the great taste and presentation that we have become known for. We believe that we have done this with our new Halal gift range. Better still, in the process we have discovered some wonderful delicacies from around the Muslim world, which we are proud to now offer in our wider gift range too”.

Amongst the company’s new Halal food discoveries are superb Lebanese-style baklawa, date-filled ma’amoul from Saudi Arabia, organic Tunisian dates, Halal-certified honey nougat, authentic Turkish Delight and Turkish halwa with pistachios. The company’s Ramadan Iftari hamper will also feature traditional miswak sticks, whilst for Eid the company will offer hampers with freshly made-to-order mithai.

Harding adds, “This new range will offer greater choice to Muslims looking to send halal gifts to friends and family in the UK. We also hope companies wanting to give appropriate gifts to their Muslim staff and clients will now find it much easier to do so.”

The company’s halal range is available at the following address: www.ripegifts.co.uk/acatalog/HalalGiftBasketsUK.html

All the hamper prices include free next day delivery across the UK mainland.

Box of Delights

ripegifts — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 16:04:11 +0000

A new addition to our halal gift baskets collection is our ‘Box of Delights’, a taste of our favourite delicacies from the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. Our smart red and gold glossy box contains a feast of high quality, traditional halal specialities including fine turkish coffee, ground cardamom (for those who, like us, appreciate the magical aroma of cardamom in their turkish coffee), Turkish apple tea, honey and some truly wonderful sweet delicacies. We are proud to offer exquisite lebanese-style baklawa. Not over-sweet, this baklawa melts in the mouth and is laden with high-quality pistachios. A real delight. There is also a selection of authentic Turkish Delight with hazelnuts, pistachios and coconut and maamoul, a traditional cookie stuffed with fine Saudi dates. All products are vegetarian and halal. Last, but not least, there are two striking espresso cups and saucers, the perfect size for serving Turkish coffee.

All this, plus free next working day delivery is only £68. Order your Box of Delights today!

It’s A Baby Gift!

ripegifts — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 22:24:45 +0000

We have some wonderful ideas for baby gifts in our new baby gift basket collection. For what to send to hospital – forget flowers – send a ‘Baby Bouquet’ instead. Our ‘Baby Bouquet‘ is a stunning presentation of artifical flowers and foliage with large ‘blooms’ that are actually organic cotton baby clothes including a hat, bib and five pairs of socks. Beautiful and practical!

We’ve also introduced a lovely presentation box of giant ‘cupcakes’ that are actually two sets of cotton baby clothes. In our ‘It’s a Boy!’ and ‘It’s a Girl!’ gift baskets, the ‘cupcakes’ also come with an adorable warmable bunny for baby, supersoft natural sea sponge, honey & beeswax baby balm, relaxing and healing Dead Sea bath salts for Mum and yummy treats for friends and family.

We also offer Jewish (kosher) baby gifts and Muslim (halal) baby gift baskets.

Don’t forget that all our baby gift baskets are delivered FREE to addresses on the UK mainland. And, if you place your order before 2pm, your gift will be delivered on the next working day at no extra charge!
