The Providore
What could be lovelier than receiving a Christmas hamper brimming with gourmet treats and wine? The Providore has made gift-giving a cinch with its fabulous range of festive hampers, with an optional complimentary gift message card to boot.

Luscious Christmas panettone is yet another reason why we love the year-end festivities. The Providore’s version is made in Italy and blends the traditional aroma of fresh bread with the delicate scent of sweet cake. Bellissimo!
And there’s even less reason to whip out the wooden spoon this Christmas, thanks to the handcrafted stollen bread ($28), a traditional festive German bread baked with rum and nuts. A Christmas bestseller, The Providore fruit cake ($29) is made with rum-soaked fruit, festive spices and topped with icing sugar, and guaranteed to be a hit at any Christmas lunch or dinner gathering.
