FAQs

What do I put in an adult Easter basket?

Just because the days of egg hunts from the Easter bunny are behind us, that doesn’t mean adults can’t enjoy some fun aspects of the holiday. Gifting an adult Easter basket as a treat for loved ones is a great way to celebrate. Consider grown-up versions of the nostalgic things we all loved as kids: upscale candies, artisan chocolate and age-appropriate books. Then, lean into the seasonality of the holiday: think spring-themed home goods, candles and accessories.

What can I use instead of an Easter basket for adults?

This is where you can get creative! Instead of a traditional basket, opt for more unique vessels to transport the goods—they can even be part of the gift. For example, if you’re considering a themed gift for your loved one’s hobby, you could lean into that: a cake pan for the baker, a tumbler for the coffee lover or a mini cooler for the grillmaster.

How do you make Easter special for adults?

Beyond putting together thoughtful gifts for loved ones, there are plenty of ways to celebrate Easter as adults. It’s always a good idea to bring childhood magic into adulthood. Consider a grown-up Easter egg hunt when hosting a party or small gathering. You can fill up traditional Easter eggs with grown-up goodies like fancy chocolates, mini bottles of liquor or even cash. It’s a great activity that will get everyone involved in enjoying the holiday together.
