But we may have some news that’ll perk you right up: some of Australia’s finest hotels are now offering their most sought-after dining experiences as takeaway gourmet hampers.

Pick Me Up Picnic Hamper or High Tea Hamper from Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park
Gourmet hampers can’t get much more indulgent or aesthetically pleasing than the Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park Pick Me Up Picnic Hamper. This ultra-luxe assortment of eats and sweets is packed in an adorable old-school picnic hamper that’s positively begging for its own Instagram shoot. Think hand-crafted cheeses, charcuterie, fresh fruit salad, transcendent sandwich creations (which feel a little too luxe to be called sangers but a little too substantial to be called tea sandwiches), and a positively mind-blowing selection of sweets. Whether you’re hosting a picnic, an outing, a family visit, or a Tuesday, there’s nothing that can’t be made better with the addition of this little basket of goodies. The Sheraton Grand’s famous high tea is now also available as a hamper, for those with more of a sweet tooth. Order here.
