You’ve got to seriously love someone to give them this hamper.


Selfridges Birmingham have come up with the ultimate Christmas hamper, featuring the most luxurious foods known to man.


But it comes with a price-tag more akin to what you’d expect to spend on a car.


For the hamper, which comes complete with Beluga caviar, Cristal champagne and a whole 8kg of Colston Bassett Stilton, will set you back an eye-watering £5,000.

“Our £5,000 hamper is, as the price tag points to, our very special twist on the idea of a bumper hamper,” says Sam Watts, general manager of Selfridges.

“It is packed full of goodies which have been hand-picked by our team from the most exquisite international suppliers, so you can really, really indulge.


“Of course, the hamper still includes festive favourites, such as our irresistible mini mince pies and Christmas cake.”
