I’m a firm believer that holidays aren’t just for kids. Of course, little ones deserve a great deal of holiday magic—but so do adults! And I’m not alone in this sentiment. Just search TikTok for phrases like “boo basket” or “brr basket” and you’ll find a whole host of adults creating meaningful care packages for their friends and significant others.
So, when Easter rolls around on Sunday, March 31 this year, celebrate the adults in your life with a good ‘ol Easter basket. Of course, you can make your own—filled to the brim with Easter candy and Easter gifts for adults. But if you’re short on time or shopping for a long-distance loved one, consider a premade basket instead.
We scoured the internet for themed gifts packed with delicious eats, sweet treats and even an adult beverage or two. (Don’t tell the bunny.) Our picks come from brands we trust, many of which Taste of Home editors personally tested. Now, hop to it!
