Christmas is the time of the year where we remember and acknowledge all the people who have touched our lives. Large gestures may bring gifting grandeur, but it is in the small tokens of attention and affection that this season truly shines.

Whether it is a neighbour who looked after a pet whilst you were away, a supportive colleague who had your back, a friend whose shoulder you cried on, the circle of people we wish to thank is always wider than originally anticipated. And that is a measure of the richness of our lives: the many people that we care about and who care about us.

At Artisan, we have an array of small gifts from bars to boxes to sweetly give gratitude to the many you have thought of and perhaps the few that you may have forgotten. Because, as Maya Angelou said, “When we give cheerfully and accept gratefully, everyone is blessed."

My top 5 recommended gifts for this season are:

Any of the bars!
