Supporting Local Abbotsford Businesses: The Sweet & Fruity Additions to Fraser Valley Basket Co. Gift Baskets.

Two of our favorite Abbotsford-based suppliers, Squeeze and ChocolaTas, bring incredible flavors and quality to our selections. Their products not only enhance our baskets but also reflect our commitment to supporting small businesses in our community.

Squeeze: Freeze-Dried Fruit

Squeeze is a local gem in Abbotsford that specializes in delicious freeze-dried fruit. Founder Allanah found that it was difficult to find healthy snacks at home that weren’t loaded with sugar or filled with unpronounceable ingredients. Determined to change that, she created the brand everyone was waiting for—Squeeze. Whether it’s strawberries, blueberries or mangos, Squeeze’s offerings add a healthy crunch to our gift baskets, making them perfect for snacking or pairing with chocolates and cheeses.

ChocolaTas: The Ultimate Milk Chocolate Salted Caramels

ChocolaTas located in Abbotsford, led by Master Chocolatier Wim Tas, is well-known for creating exquisite chocolate treats. One of our best-loved additions to our locally sourced gift baskets is their Milk Chocolate Salted Caramels—a perfect balance of rich, creamy caramel and smooth, high-quality chocolate with just the right touch of sea salt. These indulgent chocolates have become a signature inclusion in many of our curated baskets and our ‘Create Your Own’ option.
