What do you put in a sympathy hamper?
A sympathy gift box often contains items like tea, nuts, homewares, self-care products, preserved flowers, bath robes, essential oils, gourmet biscuits, comfort food, keepsake items, and wine or champagne. They give your giftee something to take solace in on a sad occasion.
What are the best items to send to show sympathy?
Thoughtful condolence gifts and sympathy gifts and hampers help someone de-stress and take time for themselves during challenging times. The best items to send as condolence gifts include gift cards, gift boxes, chocolates, wine, champagne, preserved flowers, live flowers, and self-care items.
Is it appropriate to send a gift basket as a sympathy gift?
Yes, condolence hampers are a very thoughtful sympathy gift for a relative or close friend. Food, fruit, or a gourmet basket are also appropriate and thoughtful gifts.
What can I get instead of sympathy flowers?
If you don't want to send flowers, a sincere sympathy hamper, gift card, food, gift box, or sympathy care package are all great gifts to give someone during a difficult time. We recommend adding a thoughtful card to your gift as well. It can really show the gift recipient that you're there for them.
Can you get sympathy hampers delivered?
Yes. The Hamper Emporium, for example, can deliver hampers straight to your gift recipient's door. We ship Australia-wide. We can even accept orders from people out of state or internationally. Our hampers are lovingly created with carefully selected goodies.
Where to buy sympathy hampers in Australia?
The Hamper Emporium is a great place to buy meaningful sympathy gifts. You can purchase any of our hampers online in just a few seconds. We'll take care of the organising, packing, and shipping for you. We can even print a message on a card for you. We offer a range of condolence gift hampers that make excellent funeral condolence gifts.
What are some appropriate sympathy gift hampers?
The A Touch of Luxury Hamper is a wonderful and appropriate sympathy gift hamper for men, women, and families. This hamper includes roasted peanuts, French vanilla almonds, caramelised peanut brittle, cocoa-dusted roasted peanuts and almonds, Belgian wafers, and some thoughtful keepsakes. It's the perfect gift for someone who is grieving.
Our Wish You Well Hamper is also a great sympathy hamper. It comes with a bottle of Mr Riggs Sulis Langhorne Creek Cabernet, a Himalayan rock salt and grater set, a waffle tea towel, and a bottle of hand wash from The Cove Jervis Bay.
How do I choose the best sympathy hamper for someone?
When looking for a sympathy hamper, we recommend the following tips and tricks:
- Maximise your budget by putting quality over quantity
- Shop for the gift recipient, not the occasion
- Look for a well-established hamper company with reviews
- Watch out for shipping fees (we offer free standard shipping on non-cheese hampers)
- Shop local and go with an Australian company
When should you send sympathy gift hampers?
The most common time to send someone a sympathy gift basket is within two weeks of their loved one passing away. However, many people also choose to give a sympathy gift at a funeral, wake, or commemoration of life service. It depends on how well you know the grieving person and their preferences.

It takes us this long to deliver sympathy or funeral condolence gift hampers:
- 1-5 business days to ship hampers to NSW, VIC, and QLD metro areas
- 3-6 business days to ship hampers to TAS and SA metro areas
