Why Shop
Three reasons people choose Harry & David
The famed Royal Riviera pears
Harry & David’s Royal Riviera pears are the brand’s best-known offering: hand-sorted, ripeness-graded fruit shipped in protective packaging so pears arrive show-ready. These elegant fruit gifts suit holidays, thank-yous, and sympathy baskets; pairing options include chocolates, caramels, or wine. Presentation — from wooden crates to gift boxes — underscores the premium, edible-gift experience.
Gourmet baskets and hospitality gifts
Their curated baskets combine cheeses, spreads, chocolates, and occasionally wine in layered presentation, ready for corporate gifting or hostess thanks. Options range from petite snack assortments to large gourmet towers, with add-ons and personalized notes.
