So today I went to Whole Foods to buy some chocolate that is made here in Nashville and I got a gift idea. I'm going to make a local Nashville basket to give as a gift this Christmas. You can make one of these with whatever city you live in, or if you have a theme you want to go with. I'm going to do a Nashville basket. Whole foods has a great selection of candy that is locally made and we also are very fortunate to have some great local beers as well. My friends are starting a new brewery, The Black Abby, however it's not available yet to the public. Therefore, I will be using Yazoo beer which happens to be one of my favorites right now. I also purchased the following chocolates and they all are amazing!
I love this brand, Olive and Sinclair. They have some really unique flavors like Sea Salt and Cinnamon Chili.

This company, The Bang Candy Company, makes incredible handmade marshmallows in flavors like Vanilla Peppermint and Chocolate Orange.

This store has some of the best candy around. Whole foods sells their milk chocolate peanut butter bites and the box is adorable as well.

The Nashville Toffee Company is also an incredible candy that you have to try. Their toffee is amazing, and with this gift, you will not disappoint!

Yazoo is a great local beer to add to the basket. This pale ale happens to be my favorite, but there are many varieties to choose from.

I hope this gives you all some ideas for a very unique gift basket that any person would be sure to love. Let me know if you know of any other items you think would make a great addition to the basket!
