| Have you ever given or received an Edible Arrangement? I'm trying to decide whether to send someone an edible arrangement or a floral bouquet. This is a thank you gift. The fruit all looks good - but I just wonder if it will live up to it. It's a bit on the expensive side Edible ArrangementsĀ® Gourmet Gift Baskets and Floral Fruit Bouquets What experience have you had?

| I sent an edible arrangement (cookie bouquet) for a friend's birthday a couple years ago. It was a big hit, because I sent it to their office! I've only heard good things |

| I'm looking at doing a fruit arrangement - I just want the fruit to be really tasty. I know how easy it is for fruit not to be good. I just thought this might be more enjoyable than a flower arrangement - although it won't last as long

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I received one but I ma not a big fruit eater and there was so much fruit. It was very pretty and fresh so if the person loves fruit or has a big family who does it would make a nice gift.

| We recieved one at work once. The fruit was very fresh but the arrangement wasn't nearly as impressive as the pictures (but neither are floral arrangements). There was only a couple of fruit "flowers"; the rest were pieces of fruit. Overall, I think I'd go with a floral arrangement. I can't imagine one person eating that much fruit in a day or two as I would think it'd go badly very quickly as the fruit is skinned and/or pierced.

| I loved the fruit arrangements!!! I have never sent one of those, but have sent cookies and they were great. I guess it would depend on the person that your sending it too, if they love fruit then they will love this. I would have been excited to receive anything including a card. |

| it's for 2 people - I don't know if they like fruit - but they are pretty healthy people so I would imagine they do. Plus I'm sure they would share with their family. I just think if I send flowers the wife would enjoy them, but I'm not sure about the hubby

| I tried to send one to my friend in New Jersey. They didn't deliver there. So I sent a pajamagram instead! She loved it! Food and pj's, what's better than that?

| I have seen a fruit arrangement before and they are amazing. Never had any of the fruit though so I can't comment there. I have sent and received cookie arrangements from cookies from Cookies by Design. They are so pretty and taste great. Gift Baskets | Cookie Bouquet | Unique Gifts | Birthday Gift Baskets

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | They do have small arrangements if it's only for two.I've send them and received them, they are great, their prices, not so much.
