				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/picnic-baskets.jpg"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-558" alt="Candy Gift Baskets | Figi's" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/picnic-baskets.jpg?w=150&#038;h=100" width="150" height="100" /></a>One of our favorite things about springtime is the chance to use all the extra sunshine to get out and spend time with the people you love. Not to mention that spring socials, picnics, potlucks and get-togethers are the perfect excuse to enjoy your favorite foods and desserts!</p>
<p>While your social calendar continues to fill up as the days grow longer, it can be difficult to think of a new dish, treat, or gift to bring with you to each special occasion. Mix things up with gourmet sweets and <a title="candy gifts" href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/candy+chocolates+gifts.do">candy gifts</a> from Figi’s, perfect for every springtime gathering!</p>
<p>We continue our series on the <a href="http://gourmetmarket.com/2013/04/25/top-10-spring-candy-gifts-pt-1/" target="_blank">Top 10 gifts for spring</a> with desserts and treats that are meant to be shared.</p>
<p><b>#7 Pink lemonade cake</b></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/pink-lemonade-cake.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-559" alt="Pink Lemonade Cake | Figi's" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/pink-lemonade-cake.jpg?w=150&#038;h=150" width="150" height="150" /></a>We all know that pink lemonade is one of the most beloved, if unofficial, flavors of springtime. That’s why we captured the delicious sweetness of pink lemonade and baked it into a refreshing round cake! Rich and moist, this cake isn’t too heavy to enjoy on a warm spring day, and is perfect to take with you as a dessert for a barbeque or picnic. If you’re not hosting, take it with you as a great baked gift for your host as a thank you!</p>
<p><b>#6 Caramel Pecan Clusters</b></p>

While there are some holidays famous for sharing <a title="chocolate gifts" href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/candy+chocolates+gifts/chocolates+gifts.do?nType=1" target="_blank">chocolate gifts</a>, any true cocoa connoisseur will tell you that quality chocolate not only can, but should be enjoyed all year long!</p>

<p>Here at <a title="Figi's" href="http://www.figis.com" target="_blank">Figi’s</a> we&#8217;ve noticed that every season has its own unique flavors. Winter is a time full of peppermints and licorice &#8211; sticky sweets that make you feel warm and mark the onset of the holiday season. Late winter and early spring, from Valentine’s Day through Easter, is all about chocolate – a delicious treat full of natural compounds that are proven to elevate your mood, leaving you feeling happy and loved.</p>
<p>As we move further into spring and welcome the return of warmer weather, a new palette of tastes is ready to be enjoyed. With so many citrus fruits harvested in spring, it’s little wonder that the tasty theme this time of year is a refreshing mix of key lime, lemon, orange, &amp; many more of your favorite flavors.</p>
<p>With this in mind, we set out to create the best <a title="candy gifts" href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/candy+chocolates+gifts.do" target="_blank">candy gifts</a> and sweets possible that capture the spirit of Spring. Check out the first of our Top 10 Gifts this season, and share if you’ve enjoyed a similar gift from Figi’s!</p>

<p>These tangy, <a title="chewy candy" href="http://www.figis.com/product/country+time+lemonade+chewy+candy.do" target="_blank">chewy candy</a> fruit treats are guaranteed to put a smile on your face as soon as you taste their sweet lemonade goodness. Individually wrapped original, pink, raspberry, and peach lemonade flavors, these candies will quickly remind you of visiting your local neighborhood lemonade stand on a warm afternoon!</p>
<p><b><br />
#9 Coconut Haystacks</b></p>
<p><a href="http://www.figis.com/product/eas+fruity+coconut+haystacks.do"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-547" alt="Fruity Coconut Haystack Candy | Figi's" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/fruity-coconut-haystacks.jpg?w=150&#038;h=150" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>

Whether you like to plan an adventure every year or just want to relax and take things easy, &#8230; <a href="http://gourmetmarket.com/2013/04/11/choosing-the-best-birthday-gift-baskets/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=gourmetmarket.com&#038;blog=24883506&#038;post=523&#038;subd=figis&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="line-height:1.7;"><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/birthday-wishes-gift-tower.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-533" alt="Birthday Wishes Gift Basket | Figi's" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/birthday-wishes-gift-tower.jpg?w=150&#038;h=150" width="150" height="150" /></a>Birthdays will always hold a special place in our hearts and minds as a time to celebrate the good things in life. Whether you like to plan an adventure every year or just want to relax and take things easy, one thing is certain; any good birthday involves doing what you love, but it’s the little things like hearing from old friends, wishes coming true, and particularly thoughtful gifts that can take any </span><i style="line-height:1.7;">good</i><span style="line-height:1.7;"> birthday and turn it into a </span><i style="line-height:1.7;">great</i><span style="line-height:1.7;"> one. </span></p>
<p>That’s why we’ve put together some of our favorite <a title="birthday gift baskets" href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/holidays+occasions+gifts/birthday+gifts.do" target="_blank">birthday gift baskets</a> this year to help you celebrate every special day with your family and friends.</p>
<p><b>Favorite foods</b></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/california-pistachios.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-532" alt="California Pistachios Birthday Basket | Figi's" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/california-pistachios.jpg?w=150&#038;h=150" width="150" height="150" /></a>If you’re struggling to think of the best gift you can give someone on their birthday, take a moment to think about their favorite foods. What do they like to eat? Are they a certified carnivore with fire-hardened grilling tools? Do they love gourmet cupcakes with real, buttercream frosting? Maybe you always see them with a bag of California Pistachios close by? Whatever it is, these clues will help you find a gift that satisfies their craving for their favorite things. Send their favorite foods with our nation-wide basket delivery service and your <a title="birthday basket" href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/holidays+occasions+gifts/birthday+gifts.do" target="_blank">birthday basket</a> is sure to be remembered even after the treats have gone!</p>
<p><b>Personalized Messages</b></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/personalized-cherry-wood-pen-set.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-526" alt="Personalized Birthday Gift Baskets | Figi's" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/personalized-cherry-wood-pen-set.jpg?w=150&#038;h=150" width="150" height="150" /></a>There’s a reason candles and lotion feel a little cliché when they’re given as birthday presents – they aren’t personal! They have all the trappings of a gift, but not the sentiment that says you love who this person is and you want them to have their favorite things on their birthday. That’s why Figi’s helps you <a title="personalize gift baskets" href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/holidays+occasions+gifts/personalized+holiday+occasions+gifts.do" target="_blank">personalize gift baskets</a> for your family and friends, so your best wishes are clear as day!</p>
<p><b>Birthday Petit Fours</b></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/happy-birthday-candle-petit-fours.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-524" alt="Birthday Petit Fours | Figi's" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/happy-birthday-candle-petit-fours.jpg?w=150&#038;h=150" width="150" height="150" /></a>Some of the best gifts are the kind you can eat and the kind you can share. <a title="Birthday petit fours" href="http://www.figis.com/product/eas+happy+birthday+candle+petits+fours.do" target="_blank">Birthday petit fours</a> combine the best of both worlds with bite size morsels of rich, moist cake and buttercreme fruit filling boxed up and ready to enjoy together. They’re perfect for birthday parties and get-togethers, or you can always keep them safe for a daily indulgence after your birthday!</p>
<p>Do you have a favorite birthday treat you look forward to every year? Let us know in the comments – we’re always on the lookout for great ideas!</p>

Today, common Easter gifts include baked goods and gifts straight out of the kitchen, from custom cupcakes and personalized petits fours to peanut brittle and delicious fudge. These baked treats are creating their own place in a storied holiday tradition, each with their own unique tastes and colorful recipes. At Figi’s, we love spreading the spirit of Easter joy with candy gifts and baked goods for all ages.</p>
<p>Just remember, the key to choosing a great Easter gift, no matter who it is for, is in discovering something new together. Easter was originally a celebration for new beginnings after all!</p>

Over time, the bunnies began ‘laying’ solid chocolate eggs made from roasted cocoa beans and other treats, which gave rise to everyone’s favorite Easter activity – the scavenger hunt. This practice is one of the reasons we still give <a title="Easter Gift Baskets" href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/holidays+occasions+gifts/easter+gifts.do" target="_blank">Easter Gift Baskets</a> full of candy! The edible Easter bunnies and their eggs have evolved over time into the delicious solid chocolate and candy treats we now know and love. At Figi’s you’ll find chocolate bunnies, Easter fudge and peanut butter eggs perfect for your family’s own Easter morning traditions and scavenger hunts!</p>
<p>Kids of all ages love the Easter candy, but what other gifts have become Easter traditions? Come back to find out!</p>

Rather than burrowing underground, the hare builds its home as a sort of ‘nest’ above ground much like a bird, which gave rise to the common myth that hares lay eggs! The hare, egg, and basket are all symbols of fertility, a theme that has played a central role in Easter celebrations long before the holiday was adopted by Western religions. When the story of Easter traveled to other cultures, the hare was replaced with the rabbit, and the Easter Bunny was born.</p>
<p>So, you may ask, how did Easter eggs get started? We’ll answer that question next week… see you then!</p>

<p>The break of winter and the changing season was marked by brightly colored feasts and family gatherings that celebrated new beginnings, growing communities, the gift of new life, and the company of old friends. Festive gifts were chosen as tidings of unity, joy, and good health.</p>
<p>Many of these symbols and gifts were later adopted for religious celebrations, but some of the changes to these Easter traditions just might surprise you! For instance, do you know where the Easter Bunny came from? Come back next week for Easter fun facts!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Think back for a moment to your first crush, the person who delivered your first Valentine’s Day card, chocolate rose or clever poem, and remember how it felt to receive that compliment. Now, as adults, Valentine’s Day can be many things for many people, but for kids it’s still very simple: a chance to share a sweet treat and appreciation with friends and sweethearts. At Figi’s, we like to keep this spirit of Valentine’s Day alive in our youngsters with fun treats and gifts they’ll love and remember. </p>
<p><strong>Valentine’s Candy for Kids</strong></p>
<p>When it comes time to choose the right candy for your kids, you’ll want to keep in mind the most important rules on Valentine’s Day – first, it has to be delicious! And second, it should be easily shared. Each of our special candy valentines gifts for kids combines the best of both, like our <a title="Conversation Jelly Belly Jelly Beans" href="http://www.figis.com/product/val+conversation+jelly+belly+jelly+beans.do" target="_blank">Conversation Jelly Belly Jelly Beans</a> which have sweet valentines printed on every bite, or our <a title="Personalized Valentine Peanut Butter Pie" href="http://www.figis.com/product/val++personalized+valentine+peanut+butter+pie.do" target="_blank">Personalized Valentine Peanut Butter Pie</a>, a favorite for classrooms and parties alike. </p>
<p><strong>Add a Personal Touch</strong></p>
<p>What would you think if someone gave you a card without even addressing it to you? That is precisely why a Valentine just isn’t complete if it hasn’t been personalized! Add a special touch to your Valentine’s Day gifts for your kids by personalizing each gift with their names or a short message. Send a mailbox full of treats with our <a title="Personalized Valentine Mailbox" href="http://www.figis.com/product/val+personalized+valentine+mailbox.do" target="_blank">Personalized Valentine Mailbox</a> or add a message to one of our many other February 14th favorites!</p>
<p><strong>Plush Toys</strong></p>
<p>Valentine’s Day isn’t just about candy and sweets; these are just one of the ways to celebrate the ever-important elements of love, connection, and friendship that give the holiday its substance. We need people, family and friends to love and the best valentines create a place for that love to live. If Winnie the Pooh and our favorite childhood memories have taught us anything, it’s that a child’s best friend is often their closest companion, and many times this friend can be imaginary, or at least only somewhat ‘real.’ Plush toys like our <a title="Puppy Love" href="http://www.figis.com/product/val+puppy+love.do" target="_blank">Puppy Love</a> or <a title="Precious Moments Teddy Bear" href="http://www.figis.com/product/val+precious+moments+teddy+bear.do" target="_blank">Precious Moments Teddy Bear</a> stuffed animals are lovable friends and adorable gifts for any child on Valentine’s Day.</p>
<p><strong>Valentines to Share</strong></p>
<p>The timeless sentiment “It’s always better to give than to receive” holds true for Valentine’s Day just as much as every other gifting holiday. That’s why we’ve created a few gifts that are meant to be shared. Choose gifts in sets of 4 from our <a title="Heart-Felt Treats" href="http://www.figis.com/product/val+heart+felt+treats.do" target="_blank">Heart-Felt Treats</a> or <a title="Valentine Gift Baskets" href="http://www.figis.com/product/val+valentine+gift+baskets.do" target="_blank">Valentine Gift Baskets</a> for your kids, their friends, or schoolmates!</p>
<p>Finally, do you remember your favorite Valentine’s Day poem from when you were a kid? Leave us a comment below!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes time to do some gift shopping for that special man in your life &#8211; be it your husband, boyfriend, brother, father, whoever &#8211; it can be easy to get overwhelmed by all of your gifting options. You want to get him something unique, something he&#8217;ll love, and something that shows you really care about who he is and what he likes &#8211; but where do you start? When he claims that he has &#8216;everything he needs&#8217; and isn&#8217;t very forthcoming about what he wants, choosing the right <a href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/holidays+occasions+gifts/gifts+for+men.do">gift baskets for men</a> can become a real challenge.</p>
<p>In the last 68 years we&#8217;ve learned a thing or two about finding the perfect <a href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/holidays+occasions+gifts/gifts+for+men.do">gifts for men</a>. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;ve put together these special gift baskets designed to please your man by giving him a taste of his favorite things!</p>
<p><strong>Meat &amp; Cheese Gifts for Him</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/bits-n-mustard.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image" id="i-435" title="Bits N Mustard" alt="Bits N Mustard" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/bits-n-mustard.jpg?w=390" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>There&#8217;s something about smoke cured meat and premium aged cheese that makes both treats irresistible when enjoyed together. Men can&#8217;t get enough of the zesty, smokehouse flavor of quality meats and sausages, and the smooth, rich taste of Signature Wisconsin cheeses provides the perfect balance of salty &amp; sweet snacking flavor. Give your man a gift that&#8217;s packed with the finer things in life by choosing a <a href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/cheese+meat+gifts.do">meat and cheese gift basket</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Man Snacks</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/call-of-the-wild-snack-pack.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image" id="i-437" title="Call of the Wild Snack Mix" alt="Call of the Wild Snack Mix" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/call-of-the-wild-snack-pack.jpg?w=390" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Snacks exist for that in-between-meals craving that every man experiences throughout the day. He wants something that will curb his hunger and satisfy his tastes without bringing on the dreaded afternoon food coma that typically accompanies heavier fare. We recommend a gourmet snack mix that is loaded with his favorite goodies, like our <a href="http://www.figis.com/product/figis+call+of+the+wild+snack+mix.do">Call of the Wild Snack Mix</a> with toasted sesame sticks, peanuts, almonds, cashews and dried cranberries for superior crunch on the go. Give him a gift he can enjoy every day and you&#8217;ll be on his mind each time he reaches for that decorative tin of treats!</p>
<p><strong>Chocolate Gifts for Men</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/english-butter-toffee.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image" id="i-439" title="English Butter Toffee" alt="English Butter Toffee" src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/english-butter-toffee.jpg?w=390" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Whoever said that chocolate is exclusively a woman&#8217;s gift has clearly never seen a couple of guys take down a tin of chocolate potato chips! We believe that chocolate is for everyone; in fact, English Butter Toffee and <a href="http://www.figis.com/product/figis+creamy+country+fudge.do">Creamy Country Fudge</a> have been long time staples of men’s gifts during the holidays for as long as we&#8217;ve been in the business of delivering gifts in good taste! Send him a collection of gourmet chocolates this holiday season and make his chocolate lovers dreams a reality.</p>
<p><strong>Personalized Gift Baskets</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/personalized-wisconsins-dairy-finest.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image" id="i-441" title="Personalized Wisconsin’s Dairy Finest Gift Basket " alt="Personalized Wisconsin’s Dairy Finest Gift Basket " src="http://figis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/personalized-wisconsins-dairy-finest.jpg?w=390" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Whatever you decide to send him for Christmas, it will be made even more meaningful by taking a moment to <a href="http://www.figis.com/category/figis+gifts/holidays+occasions+gifts/personalized+holiday+occasions+gifts.do">personalize your gift</a>. Choose his favorite colors and include a short message to show him you care. Personalizing your gift provides just the right boost to take your present from excellent to extraordinary. </p>
