Picture this: a warm, sunny day, a gentle breeze rustling through the trees, and you, surrounded by your nearest and dearest, enjoying a luxurious picnic in the heart of nature. As the 2024 picnic season approaches, it's time to start planning those idyllic outdoor gatherings, and what better way to elevate your alfresco dining experience than with a sumptuous hamper from Regency Hampers? Our 2024 guide showcases the finest picnic hampers, baskets, and accessories, carefully curated to make your picnic truly unforgettable.


Picnic Hampers with Gourmet Food

When it comes to picnic basket ideas, nothing quite compares to a hamper filled to the brim with an array of gourmet picnic foods. At Regency Hampers, we take pride in curating the best picnic hampers, each one overflowing with carefully selected artisanal treats that are sure to tantalise your taste buds.

One standout option is our Badminton Fitted Picnic Hamper with Prosecco. This exquisite hand-made four-person willow picnic basket comes complete with place settings and a delectable selection of gourmet goodies. Imagine the satisfying pop of a Zonin Prosecco DOC Millesimato cork, followed by the delicate aroma of bubbles dancing in your glass. Savour the rich, smoky flavour of Severn & Wye premium smoked salmon, paired perfectly with the creamy, melt-in-your-mouth Snowdonia smoked select mature cheddar truckle and the velvety smoothness of Le Rustique brie. Accompaniments like the sweet and tangy Cottage Delight caramelised onion chutney, the zesty Filbert's pitted marinated olives with chilli & black pepper, and the crisp, herbaceous Crosta & Mollica oregano crostini provide the perfect finishing touches. And for those with a sweet tooth, indulge in the buttery, crumbly Border Biscuits strawberry drizzle melts and the decadent, silky Lindt Lindor milk chocolate truffles.

For those who prefer a more personalised touch, our Create Your Own Hamper option allows you to handpick your favourite gourmet items to craft a bespoke picnic basket that suits your unique tastes and dietary preferences. Whether you're a cheese connoisseur, a charcuterie aficionado, or have a penchant for artisanal jams and chutneys, we've got you covered.

This deluxe hamper features a spacious cooler compartment with a zip to keep your refreshments perfectly chilled, as well as a comprehensive set of picnicware for four. Enjoy your feast using the gleaming stainless steel cutlery, the soft, luxurious cotton napkins, the elegant wine glasses, and the exquisite fine porcelain plates. A retractable corkscrew and bottle opener ensure you're always ready to uncork your favourite vintage and toast to the perfect picnic.

No matter your requirements, we have a luxury fitted picnic basket to suit your needs. When browsing picnic hamper ideas, consider the size of your group and the occasion to find the perfect match for your unforgettable alfresco dining experience.
