The holidays are just around the corner, and at Aurora Importing, the shelves are brimming with the flavours and aromas of Italy. Whether you’re looking for a thoughtful gift for friends, family, or colleagues, Aurora’s custom-made holiday baskets offer something truly special — a blend of tradition, taste, and authentic Italian charm.
Located at 350 Clayson Road in North York, Aurora Importing’s retail store has become a destination for anyone who loves fine food and elegant presentation. Their team is already busy assembling custom gift boxes and baskets, featuring imported favourites that can be tailored to suit every taste and budget.
This year’s highlights include the arrival of Verona Specialty Cookies, a delightful assortment of Italian treats perfect for sharing — or savouring yourself. Alongside them, Aurora carries an impressive selection of Panettone, Italy’s beloved holiday sweet bread. Expect premium names such as Paluani Golosi, DalColle Pandoro Triplo Cioccolato, Crema Cantelli, and Milano Gatto Tradizionale, each bringing a unique regional flavour to the table. These beautiful boxes make a perfect centrepiece or heartfelt gift, with more varieties arriving weekly through the season.
Of course, no Italian basket would be complete without chocolate. Aurora’s retail shop features fine selections from Donini, Lindt, and other artisan makers. Customers can even customize their own baskets, adding wine, espresso sets, serving boards, or specialty coffees for a personalized touch. For businesses, Aurora also offers corporate gifting options — ideal for employee recognition, client appreciation, or end-of-year celebrations.
Each basket is carefully assembled by hand, combining elegance and authenticity in every detail. Whether you choose from their pre-made selections or build your own from Aurora’s extensive lineup of over 1,700 imported products, the result is always the same — a gift that feels genuine and unforgettable.
Visit the Aurora Importing Cash and Carry Store Monday to Friday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m., or Saturday 9 a.m.–1 p.m., and discover the perfect Italian-inspired gift this season.
