These festive hampers sound luxurious and all, but seriously, THB 3,500 for a bunch of cookies and a candle? That’s just too much for me. Who really has that kind of money to blow?
It’s not just about the cookies, Anna. It’s the brand, the experience, and the exclusivity. You’re buying into the signature experience of a Michelin-starred establishment.
I get that, but it still feels excessive. I’d rather spend that on a whole dining experience or something practical!
Anna, some people love indulging in these experiences. It’s about enjoyment and treating oneself to something special.
I agree, Anna. It seems steep, but if you’re a fan of Alain Ducasse and want a unique treat, maybe it’s worth it for the experience.
I absolutely love the sound of the Chocolate Orange Bliss Panettone! It’s so hard to find good panettone outside of Italy, and the citrus combination sounds divine.
Am I the only one who finds these exclusive luxury items a bit pretentious? How about something more inclusive instead?
Inclusivity is important, Jim, but luxury is about exclusivity. It’s like art; not everyone gets it, and that’s what makes it special for those who do.
Fair point, but there’s a fine line between art and just plain unnecessary.
Jim, I think there’s a place for both! Every now and then, treating yourself to something extravagant is part of the joy of life.
I agree, Jim. There’s something to be said for accessibility in luxury. A larger variety of price points could be more inviting.
This is a typical example of consumerism gone wild. People are throwing money at temporary pleasures while there are real problems in the world.
I think the effort and skill that goes into these hampers justify the price. It’s not just about the product but the craftsmanship and creativity.
Imagine the environmental impact of these exclusive items. Are they sustainable? I hope these luxury brands consider eco-friendly practices.
They did mention the Blue Signature Candle is made of soy wax, which is a start. But yes, more transparency about sustainability would be great.
Also, does Alain Ducasse really need more money? Maybe try selling items at a discount and donate the proceeds to charity.
I just love anything Christmas-themed, so I’d go for The Noel Collection. It’s still pricey, but it speaks to the spirit of the season.
The Blue Exclusive Tea Box Set has me intrigued! Tea is my weakness, and if it’s as unique as they say, it might be worth the splurge.
As a tea lover myself, I can vouch that exotic blends can transform your daily cup. It’s worth it for a special occasion.
Alice, do you think the flavors would be appreciated by someone not super into tea?
It would be interesting to know how many of these are bought by individuals versus corporations as client gifts. Luxury hampers often go that route.
It’s notable how these exclusives make something ordinary like cookies look like rare artifacts. That’s marketing for you!
It’s sad to see that luxury food is more about flaunting wealth than enjoying flavors.
Totally drooling over the idea of artisan pralines! You’ll never go wrong with hazelnut praline, in my opinion.
This is nothing more than a status symbol. Meanwhile, local small businesses make equally good products at a fraction of the price.
Amen to that, Maxwell! Supporting local not only helps the community but can also uncover some hidden culinary gems.
Order them, don’t order them, but it does make for an interesting discussion about what people value in luxury—and why.
Right, it’s fascinating. We all have unique ways of celebrating and spending.
Love the idea of the signature Blue candle! Seems like a cozy addition to the holiday vibes.
It’s just nice to see a brand putting so much care into their holiday offerings. I’d love to try the panettone.
