Milestone Birthday Gift Basket with Balloon
The Milestone Birthday Gift Basket is a bamboo tray of Canadian chocolates and biscuits — Chocolat Classique truffles, MADE Chocolates, Walkers Belgian chocolate biscuits, Fraser Valley caramel crunch and Boozy Beaver ice wine chocolates — arranged by hand with kraft paper sizzle, finished with a burgundy cloth bow and delivered with an inflated 18-inch number balloon.
This is the gift for a birthday that ends in a zero: a thirtieth, a fortieth, a fiftieth. The balloon arrives at the door with the basket, which is the part people photograph. Choose 30, 40 or 50 when you order - just tell us in the notes.

Choose the Milestone
The photograph shows a 40th birthday balloon. Tell us the birthday age in the order notes — 30, 40 and 50 are the numbers we keep in stock. The colour and design of the balloon may vary depending on the number selected and local availability.
For a milestone outside these three — a sixtieth, a twenty-first — contact us with a little extra notice and we will source it. If the requested number is unavailable, we will contact you before preparing the gift.
Delivery
An inflated balloon cannot travel by courier. This milestone birthday gift basket is hand-delivered in Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Port Coquitlam, Northeast Coquitlam, Walnut Grove and North Surrey. Same-day delivery is available in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows for orders placed before 11:00 AM Pacific Time, Monday to Friday.
Please give us a day's notice where you can, so the balloon is inflated close to the delivery time rather than the night before. If the birthday falls on a weekend, we recommend delivery on the Friday — tell us the date and we will note it on the card.
For a birthday outside our delivery area, any basket in our birthday gift baskets collection ships by courier across Canada — just without the balloon. Delivery areas and rates are listed on our delivery page.
A printed greeting card is included with every gift, and we can print your message on it.
Basket Revolution has been creating and delivering gift baskets in British Columbia since 2002. The people who design the baskets are the people who pack them — and, for this one, the people who carry it to the door.
Other Birthday Gifts
For someone who would rather have fruit, Fruit Plus pairs seasonal fruit with brie, artisan crackers, cookies and chocolate truffles, and ships across the Metro Vancouver. For a beer drinker in British Columbia, the BC Craft Beer Gift Basket is delivered within British Columbia only. For a recipient with dietary needs, the Gluten-Free Indulgence Gift Basket is delivered across Canada.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which birthday numbers are available?
30, 40 and 50 are the numbers we keep in stock. Other milestone ages — a sixtieth, a twenty-first — may also be available with extra notice. Tell us the age in the order notes.
Will the balloon look exactly like the photograph?
The balloon will display the requested number, but its colour and design may vary with local availability. It will be an 18-inch foil balloon suitable for hand delivery.
Can this gift be delivered outside your local area?
No. An inflated balloon does not survive a courier journey, so this gift is hand-delivered only. For a recipient elsewhere, we can send any birthday gift basket by courier with a printed birthday card instead.
Does the basket contain alcohol?
The Boozy Beaver chocolates are infused with Canadian ice wine, but they are confectionery — not a drinkable alcohol product. No age restriction applies to this basket.
How long will the balloon stay inflated?
A foil balloon generally holds its shape for several days indoors, away from heat and direct sunlight.
Can the contents be changed?
The selection shown is the standard at $149. For a different direction — wine, beer, fruit or a basket built to a brief — tell us the number and what they like, and we will build around it. Pricing varies with the contents. If the recipient has a dietary restriction, contact us before ordering.
