Christmas gifts with fruit and chocolate: what to give and when to order

Pack Capricho de Born con bombones de fruta y chocolate negro

The short answer

For Christmas, the gift that works is one you understand as soon as you open it and that does not need to go in the fridge. Born's semi-dried fruit and dark chocolate packs cost between €7.99 and €45. They keep for up to 12 months unopened. In mainland Spain they arrive in 48 to 72 working hours. To receive one before Christmas Eve, order by Friday 18 December at the latest.

  2. Order before everyone else. For orders of several dozen units, write to Born in early December.
  3. Personalisation and company invoice: tell Born what you need through the contact form before buying.

More detail in the guide to gourmet fruit gifts.

Semi-dried fruit or any packaged snack

  • Few ingredients. Most Born products are single-ingredient fruit. The chocolate contains cane sugar and the ginger contains honey or cane syrup: each product page lists them.
  • Soft texture. It is not hard, dry fruit: it keeps part of its water. The difference is explained in what semi-dried fruit is.
  • Gift format. 40 g small bags to hand out or 250 g bags to share.

Evidence

  • Delivery to mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands: 48 to 72 working hours, €6.50 and free from €45, according to the shop's shipping policy on 10 Oct 2026.
  • Delivery to Europe: with GLS, 3 to 4 working days to most countries, with one day of preparation included, according to the same policy. Outside the European Union, the recipient pays customs duties on delivery.
  • Storage: cool, dry place, no fridge, up to 12 months with the pack sealed, according to Born's product pages.
  • Ginger ingredients: ginger and honey, made with a coating of cane sugar syrup, according to its product page.
  • Company: Born is based in Mercabarna, Barcelona.
