Ten Ways to Enjoy a Snack Gift Box (Beyond Eating It All at Once)
So you have opened your Snack Delight box. The ribbon is off, the note has been read, and now the real question: how do you enjoy it? Here are some of our favourite ideas.
1. Family movie night
Tip the jelly beans, speckled eggs and mixed nuts into small bowls and let everyone build their own movie mix. It feels like a cinema treat without the cinema prices.
2. A sunset picnic on the beach
Few things beat a Blouberg or Big Bay sunset with Table Mountain across the water. Pack the dried fruit, nuts and peanut brittle in a cooler bag, grab a blanket and enjoy.
3. The ultimate road trip snack bag
Heading up the N1 or along the Garden Route for the holidays? Wasabi nuts and chutney corn keep the driver awake, and the jelly beans keep the back seat quiet for at least ten minutes.
4. A braai side table
While the fire gets going, a bowl of mixed nuts and chutney corn keeps everyone happy until the meat is ready.
5. A sweet snack board
Arrange dried fruit, nuts, chocolate slices and speckled eggs on a wooden board. It looks impressive with almost no effort.
6. Office tea time
Bring the box to work and leave it next to the kettle. You will be the most popular person in the office by eleven o’clock.
7. Study snacks
Exam season calls for brain fuel. A handful of mixed nuts and dried fruit is a much better study companion than a packet of chips.
8. Hiking trail mix
Mix nuts, banana chips and dried fruit in a zip bag for Lion’s Head, the pipe track or any weekend walk.
9. Games night
Use jelly beans as poker chips, then eat your winnings.
10. Share it forward
Keep a few treats and pass the rest on to a neighbour or colleague who needs a lift. Joy grows when it is shared.
