Checklist for Creating a Sophisticated Easter Basket for Adults

Author Your Holiday Inspiration Guru | March 24, 2020

Easter is the perfect excuse to create a beautiful and thoughtful gift basket for someone special like your mother, sister, or friend. One of the best parts of building your basket is how easy they are to personalize and fit within your budget.

Follow our checklist for what you'll need to create the perfect adult Easter basket!

Something to drink

Depending on your recipient, you have a lot of options when it comes to a beverage. Visit our wine and beer section for a nice bottle of wine or bubbly. If they would prefer something non-alcoholic, loose-leaf herbal tea, coffee, and flavored sparkling water will make a great addition to your basket.

Something sweet

You can't go wrong when it comes to sweets! Find their favorites from our wide selection of chocolates and candies in the Easter section of our stores. Want something a little more decadent? Pick up something delicious from our bakery instead!

Something relaxing

We have plenty of options for some much-needed relaxation. From candles to spa gifts for the bath, you'll find spring scents and designs that will fit right in with your basket. Include something of their favorite fragrance, or try something calming like lavender or eucalyptus.

Something tasty

Make your way to our deli and pick up something tasty to add to your gift basket. Check out our fruity jams and spreads, crackers, oils and vinegars, nuts, dried fruits, and more. These gourmet items can really add a classy and personal element to the overall basket.

Something personal

The best part of creating your own Easter basket is the ability to make it as personal and thoughtful as you'd like. Pick up their favorite flowers from our floral department or include a gift card to their favorite place. Don't forget to add a sweet note or drawing to let them know how much you appreciate them!


Once you have your ideas listed out, stop by your local Albertsons Market and pick up everything you may need to build your Easter basket. If you're going to be hosting Easter Brunch, be sure to check out our Healthy Easter Brunch Recipes blog to make planning this holiday meal a breeze.
