Pre-Made Mishloach Manot For Purim

On Purim, it is customary to send gifts of food to friends and loved ones. Mishloach manot, literally the “sending of portions,” are gift baskets of food and drinks that are sent to friends, relatives, and other acquaintances on Purim. The mitzvah of giving mishloach manot is meant to ensure that everyone has enough food for the Purim feast and to increase the sense of community among Jews. According to the halakha, every Jew of Bar and Bat Mitzvah age should send a mishloach manot consisting of two different types of food to at least one recipient.

Some people put together their own baskets and containers. However, many online retailers have pre-assembled mishloach manot that you can order with the click of a button. Here are some of our picks for ready-made gift baskets:
