Looking for the Perfect Mother’s Day Gift for Mum?


Finding the perfect Mother’s Day gift isn’t always easy.


Flowers are lovely and chocolates are a classic, but sometimes you want to give Mum something she can open, share and genuinely enjoy.


That’s where a Mother’s Day hamper comes in.


Our Cornish Mother’s Day hampers bring a Proper taste of Cornwall straight to her door, with some of the county’s best-loved treats including Cornish scones, strawberry conserve, Rodda’s Cornish clotted cream, Cornish tea and more.


And if you’re looking for something with a little extra sparkle, our Mother’s Day Prosecco hamper combines a traditional Cornish cream tea with two individual bottles of Prosecco Rosé.


Whether you’re searching for Mother’s Day gifts for Mum, Grandma, your wife, partner or another special person, a Cornish food hamper is a delicious alternative to a more traditional present.


You can even arrange Mother’s Day hamper delivery directly to her home and add a personalised gift message from you.


Because if you can’t take Mum to Cornwall this Mother’s Day, sending a little bit of Cornwall to Mum is surely the next best thing.

Why a Cornish Cream Tea Hamper Makes Such a Lovely Mother’s Day Gift


There’s something about a Proper Cornish cream tea that makes you slow down for a while.


Put the kettle on, split the scones, add the strawberry conserve followed by a generous spoonful of Cornish clotted cream, and suddenly an ordinary afternoon feels a little more special.


That’s exactly what Mother’s Day should be about.


A Mother’s Day cream tea hamper gives Mum an excuse to put her feet up and enjoy something delicious. It’s a gift that becomes an experience rather than another present to put away somewhere.


And for Mums who have a soft spot for Cornwall, a Cornish cream tea gift can mean even more.


Those familiar flavours can bring back memories of seaside holidays, favourite Cornish towns and villages, coastal walks and afternoons spent enjoying a cream tea. Just remember the important bit.


Jam first. Cream second. We are Cornish, after all!



Mother’s Day Cornish Hampers

Give Mum More Than Just a Mother’s Day Present

Mother’s Day Cream Tea & Prosecco Rosé Hamper


If you’re searching for a Mother’s Day Prosecco hamper, afternoon tea gift for Mum or a cream tea hamper delivered to her door, this is a lovely way to make the occasion feel that little bit more special.


Our Mother’s Day Cornish Scones Cream Tea & Rosé Prosecco Hamper combines the essentials for a traditional Cornish cream tea with two individual bottles of Prosecco Rosé.

Scones, strawberry conserve, Proper Cornish clotted cream, shortbread and tea already make for a rather good afternoon.


Add two bottles of chilled Prosecco Rosé and you’ve got a Mother’s Day food hamper that feels even more celebratory.


It’s a lovely gift for Mum to enjoy at home and, with four Cornish scones included, there might even be enough to share.

Although we’ll leave that entirely up to her.

One of the reasons food hampers for Mum make such good gifts is simple.


They create an occasion.

Rather than another present to put away, a Mother’s Day gift hamper gives Mum something she can actually sit down and enjoy.


She can make the tea, open the Prosecco, warm the scones and turn an ordinary Sunday afternoon into her own little Cornish cream tea.


And if you’re visiting Mum on Mother’s Day, it becomes something you can enjoy together too. After all, spending time together over tea, scones and something delicious can mean far more than another thing wrapped in paper.

A Mother’s Day Hamper for Sharing

Not every Mother’s Day celebration has to be all about something sweet.


If you’re looking for a Mother’s Day hamper or a more substantial Mother’s Day food gift, our Vegetarian Party Pasty & Cream Tea Hamper for 4 combines savoury Cornish cheese & onion pasties with a traditional Cornish cream tea afterwards.

With a choice of four Cheese & Onion pasties or our Traditional Cornish pasties followed by scones, strawberry conserve, Cornish clotted cream and tea, there’s plenty for everyone to sit down and enjoy together.


It’s particularly well suited to a relaxed Mother’s Day lunch at home when you want something a little more substantial than afternoon tea alone.

"Sometimes the best Mother’s Day gift for Mum isn't something expensive. It’s making time to sit down together. Our larger Cornish cream tea hampers and pasty hampers are ideal for sharing around the table, whether you’re planning a relaxed Mother’s Day lunch or simply calling round for tea and a catch-up".

Add a Personal Message to Your Mother’s Day Gift


Sending Mother’s Day gifts by post doesn't mean your present has to feel impersonal.


You can add a free personalised gift message to your hamper before checkout.


It could be something as simple as:


“Happy Mother’s Day Mum! Lots of love xxx”


Or perhaps:


“Put your feet up, Mum. Today the cream tea is all yours!”


Whatever you decide to write, your message lets Mum know exactly who sent her Proper Cornish surprise.
