Reader Reviews
This review is from: The Perfect Basket: How to Make a Fabulous Gift Basket for Any Occasion (Paperback) Maybe I didn't read the editorial comments correctly before I ordered this book, but it is not what I wanted. I was looking for information about starting a gift basket *business*. This book does not cover that topic. It is a very nice book about making baskets as gifts for friends, neighbors, teachers, service people, etc. There are some full-color pictures, though not of every basket idea. The resource list is strictly retail. Recipes are included for basket items, a no-no when you're selling baskets unless you have a licensed commercial kitchen. So, while the book might jump-start your brain for basket ideas as gifts, it is not a business book. My problem, not the book's. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
