My family, immediate and extended, often gifts each other consumables and food items. I think my family tries to keep excess stuff from cluttering our lives. Plus, I have many people in my family who appreciate good food.
There are tons of gourmet food baskets and subscription boxes you can order online, but they are often costly and only have a few things. I got this cool idea to put together a personalized Mother’s Day brunch box for Mom. I found that Hyvee has many high-end gourmet food items that also make great gifts! I went shopping at Hyvee, picked up several items, and made the ultimate Mother’s Day brunch Box.
How to make a Mother’s Day Brunch Box:
- Find a cute gift box. It can be a shipping box or a shoebox.
- Head over, Hyvee, and pick your mom’s favorite brunch and breakfast items. You can also browse items online.
- Fill the bottom of the box with tissue paper, and arrange all of the items to look cute!
- You will want to time your shopping trip so that everything is fresh when you gift this to your mom.
- You can also choose nonperishable brunch items and send them to your mom in the mail if she does not live nearby.
Here is a list of items I included in my Brunch Box
Fresh Fruit from the produce aisle – Strawberries, grapes, kiwi, mandarin oranges, and bananas.
Freshly Baked Items from Hyvee’s Bakery- mini cherry danishes and croissants.
Jam- Hyvee has a large variety of jams
Local Coffee
English Breakfast Tea
Honey
Chocolate- If your local Hyvee has a Health market, you will find various gourmet chocolates and several delicious-looking items in the bulk foods aisle.
Cheese- Hyvee has an excellent selection of specialty cheeses that make an excellent addition to any brunch.
A Kitchen Towel- Many Hyvee stores have kitchen gadgets that will round out the mothers day gift box.
Make sure to include your mom’s favorite breakfast and brunch items

Get The Kids Involved
This is a fun gift idea that you can have your kids help with. Bring them to Hyvee to help you select items for this box. They might also want to make a cute card to include with the brunch items.
As a mom, I love it when my kids make me breakfast in bed. Most moms work 24 hours daily and deserve to be pampered on Mother’s Day. A delicious breakfast and a little relaxation are the ultimate Mother’s Day gifts!
