Looking for a Christmas gift? Send a delicious Amaretto hamper made up exactly as you want it; with no extra mark-up.

Buy & deliver online (NR1-7) this Christmas, or come in and browse our shop at 16 St Georges Street, Norwich.

Here at Amaretto deli we have a shop full of goods that are perfect for Christmas gift hampers. We find most people are keen to make up their own and so we have been running a successful personalised gift hamper service for some years now. The great thing about this gift is that it looks fantastic and you only pay for the food that you choose and the hamper materials (£4.95). There is no extra mark-up. We’ve had orders for hampers in Norwich from people across the world.

A personalised Christmas hamper delivery service that’s easy to use.

Prices start at ten pounds, and you can spend as much as you want! Orders range from a small nest of cheese, to a wide-ranging array of food; it really is up to you. Once you’ve chosen your food we’ll lay out your gifts on rafia and dress the hamper so that you have a present that looks as good as it tastes, and that is unique. If you’re buying online you can either collect the hamper yourself or, more usual, have it sent to any address in Norwich NR1-NR7. (Do feel free to write a note for us to include in the hamper at the check-out stage; most people do.)

If you come in to the shop we can happily advise on popular Christmas hamper ingredients for loved ones of varying tastes. If you’re buying online, then do just browse our online shop and the collections there.  Most people order a mix of dry and fresh ingredients. The fat Gordal olives are a favourite, finocchiona (fennel) salami, and fontina cheese, and of course our popular gift bags of cakes.

Why Amaretto?

We are a small award-winning Italian deli in Norwich, run by Fabrizio Fiaschi from Tuscany. When you browse the shop you’ll find Christmas gifts from the best suppliers at prices that don’t cost the earth. Your gift is put together and delivered with a personal touch, and, like any well-stocked bottega in Italy, quality is key. For example we have exclusive coffee from Vinci, olive oil from Fab’s cousin in Tuscay, and the best Italian cheese and olives. We also have a whole range of Italian Christmas goods in stock across the Christmas season: you can read more about those goodies on our special Christmas food blog.

Easter Table, Amaretto Deli, Norwich

Did you know we make bespoke Easter Hampers? Filled with the gifts of your choice, and then only £3.50 extra for the hamper materials, they make for a lovely gift. Do come in and ask in the shop if you’d like one made up, or you can also order online and have the Easter hamper delivered in Norwich, NR1-NR7. It’s the perfect gift if you live further afield.

Our Classic Colomba Cake is lovely in a hamper, or on it’s own. It’s been around since the 12th century in Italy, its dove shape symbolising peace. Made by our first class panettone makers Gilber, in Turin, the cake really does melt in the mouth. Gilber use quadruple leavened dough, candied orange peel and a sweet hazelnut and sugar glaze to make this Italian classic. Similar in taste and texture to the panettone, the Colomba is lighter and sweeter than it’s cousin. Understandably, it’s a cake that’s really beginning to gain in popularity in the UK.

Italian Easter Gifts on our Norwich shop table. Perfect for an Easter Hamper.

La Perla 70% dark chocolate truffles

If you’ve ever been to Italy at Easter time, you’ll know their Easter eggs are a spectable in themselves. Large, and made with high quality chocolate, they are wrapped in bright cellophane that explodes at the top. In all, a particularly good-looking, delicious present with no plastic shell. (Please note our eggs are not currently available online).

We also have plenty of Italian chocolates and biscuits, as well as plenty of other deli food that works really well in mixed Easter Hampers. So, do browse our online shop or come down to the deli at 16, St Georges Street and see what works for you.

Valentine's Day hamper

Why not choose some good food and celebrate in style by sending a bespoke Valentine’s Day Gift Hamper this year. It’s a great gift for your loved one but February 14th doesn’t have to be for one special set of love-birds only; if you know someone else who needs a pick-me-up some good food could be just the ticket. We offer a bespoke hamper service either online or in our shop. You just pay £3.50 for the hamper basket and then choose any of the food in our shop in order to craft a gift that is perfectly suited to you and your loved one.

Make up your own Valentine’s Day Hamper

If you want to order online, let us know where you’d like us to deliver (in NR1-NR7), write a note in the special delivery note slot online, and we will do the rest. Otherwise come down to our St George’s Street shop and you can pick out the food yourself.

Most people go for a mix of sweet and savoury gifts in their Valentine’s Day Hamper, but the choice is yours; you can make a picnic hamper, a sweet hamper, a savoury hamper… We have a range of antipasti: olives, our Italian cheese and hams; that make up a lovely hamper. For those looking for a full three course meal, why not choose some speciality pasta, and a rich tasty sauce. Sweeten things up with our special gift bags: the chocolate brownies are a particular favourite. We also have lots of specilaity chocolates to choose from; Italian favourites that are lovely in a sweet gift hamper. Top it all off with some Leonardo Cafe.

Once your order is in we place it all in a raffia basket, tie with ribbons and bows. So do browse the online shop and get in touch. Remember to include a gift message in your hamper at the checkout delivery note, (which we’ll hand write for you). Otherwise, see you at 16, St Georges Street.

Ciao ciao and buon appetito.
