ABBY BURKE National Account Executive Walker-Clay Inc. PPAI 109398, Silver Hanson, Massachusetts Burke says her go-to foodie promo gift provides “a fun way to send a thank-you, distribute gift cards, share a message or offer event favors” – as well as satisfy chocoholics and sweet tooths. Adding a fully custom greeting card and gourmet chocolate bar all in one from Sweeter Cards to any promo program is a favorite recommendation for Burke. These delicious and ethically sourced sea salt caramel chocolate bars are made in St. Louis by adults with disabilities, using fair trade-certified chocolate and recyclable packaging. Sweeter Cards PPAI 810735, Standard-Base sweetercards.com/pages/promo Burke wants to try a potluck essential and a fun holiday gift set, both perfect foodie gifts for the upcoming holiday season. Burke says she wishes for this Hot and Cold Cooler with handles every time she brings a dish to a party. “The foil trays from the store are flimsy to carry, and transporting food cargo can be suspenseful,” she adds. The insulated casserole carrier, available in blue, red or charcoal, holds a 9-by-13-inch pan in its zippered main compartment that keeps dishes hot or cool – and contained – during transport. Koozie Group / PPAI 114187, Platinum kooziegroup.com “The best unboxing experience is one that is as impactful as the contents inside,” says Burke, and she is very impressed by the Jingle Bells & Whistles + Advent, Lights, Music Gift Box, which features colorful lights and festive music, as well as an advent calendar-style reveal of snacks and gifts. These include rocky road popcorn, cashew brittle, white chocolate-covered Christmas tree pretzels, a customizable ceramic mug with removable bamboo coaster and a festive wooden ornament.
