Even though we had an extra month of Adar this year I still feel like all of a sudden Purim is creeping up on me. I have been undecided about my plan for Mishloach Manot this year when I got a call from Oh! Nuts. I knew all about Oh! Nuts, I love the gift baskets they sell, but I usually prepare my own baskets and I didn’t realize the extent of what they sold. Turns out they are are a mecca of supplies to help make any food gift basket, especially though for Purim. They have homemade hamantashen, tons of chocolate specialties and tons of candy if every different color.
For the perfect Purim gift basket theme, consider color to express your creativity! Choose your favorite color or mix it up for a variation on a theme (Red and White for Where’s Waldo? Rainbow for Wizard of Oz, Blue and White for Israel). Our friends at Oh! Nuts make it easy with a section of their website devoted to browsing candy by color. Click for more ideas.
This is an example of some of the candies they sell in pink, you can buy a pink candy sampler or buy each one in bulk.
Another idea is to place these flavored Jordan almonds on a plate like they are pebbles and top with their mini hamantashen. The mini hamantashen are baked on premises and drizzled with chocolate. They also sell chocolate dipped hamantashen with colored sugar as you can see in the main image so you can match your theme.

My favorite color is green!! And I’ve never done a theme basket.
My favorite color is shades of pink. I have never done a color themed basket but wll definitely do it now!
I have never done a basket by color, but I have let my daughter do one. This year she wants to go with black and yellow to match her bumble bee costume.
I love all shades of blue!
MY favourite color is purple or teal.
I have never done a color-themed shalach manos!
Thank you for the contest 🙂
PURPLE!!! but I’ve never done a shalach monos with that theme (costumes, yes, many times!) I’ve done orange, red, and don’t remember what else, but there’s always next year…..
my favorite color is pink. I’ve never done a color themed basket, but I am doing an all chocolate one this year!
Yellow, that it is an unusual one, but you could do a smiley face theme and find some yellow candies to include.
My favorite color is blue. i did an orange theme one year!
I like all colors but don’t have a favorite. I love the idea of color-themed Mishloach Manos.
Though my favorite color is yellow, it is a little difficult to make it into a shalach manos theme. One year, we made an “apple” them, giving all ingredients to make an apple kugel (with the recipe of course!)
My Favorite color is Purple. I’ve never done a color theme but it is a great idea.
I’ve never done a color theme. I honestly don’t have a favorite color but my husbands color is orange so if I had to pick one to do it would be orange.
Like many others, I did an “orange you glad it’s purim” theme a couple of years ago. I used an edible food marker to write those words directly on tangerines, and then added everything else I could think of that was orange — baby carrots, etc.
i have never done a themed basket but i just ordered lots of PINK candy for my daughters kiddush from OH NUTS!
I did a black and white theme one year…black & white cookies, white Jordan almond, black licorice, etc….and salt and pepper!
Yellow is my favorite color. I have only made pink and blue themed gift baskets for baby showers.
My favorite color is purple. I have done a blue and white themed basket once.
Thanks for the chance.

My favorite color is purple, but year we did everything in green.
Blue, and no, I never have time to get creative.
One year we sent Shaloch manos – everything red – because on Purim the Megilla is READ
love blue, green, purple – considering a peacock theme!
Today my fave color is lilac and I’ve put together color-coded baskets for baby gifts.
Silver and pink or
My favorite color is purple. Last year I sort of did a black and white theme, but really it was a cow theme, and it wasn’t super color coordinated.
RED is my favorite color. It just doesn’t seem to fit for Purim,
I love blue, like the sea and sky, but I never have done a colored basket. Have to think about it for this year.
My favorite color is purple. I have never done a color themed mishloach manot.

I love the idea of a color for a theme. Now which color to do so I don’t offend any of my kids….

i like pink! but usually give homemade hummies for mishloach manot
Love the great ideas. I love pink, but not in food.
Never done a colour themed mishloach manot, but do normally have a them – usually breakfast.
I love green. you never know, maybe i’ll try a themed basket (lots of green healthy veges out there)
I don’t really have a favorite color but I do love the idea of a color themed basket. It just looks so much more enticing!

My favorite color is red. No, I never did a color themed gift before, but I love this idea.
My favorite color is purple. I have never done a theme mishloach manot but I do try to keep it in the same color scheme. For example, if the wine has a silver wrapper on top, I would use a silver bag.
Blue!
Nope…but if my last name was a color I probably would…
i love green! my mom made an “orange you happy it’s purim one” also, literally just ordered mishloach manot supplies from oh nuts, right before i saw this 🙂
