With a food care package, one can really show some love to a friend or a family member. One brand that has a huge roaster of exciting care packages is New York-based brand Goldbelly. Its offerings are not only extremely diverse but also mouthwatering. During the pandemic, the brand saw a sky-rocketing customer base, with "more than a million customers (a 100% increase from the year before) turning to the marketplace to buy comfort food."

Some examples of its food care packages include the [Nancy Silverton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nancys-organic-butter) Favorite Gelato Gift Box from Los Angeles, the New York Bagel Brunch for Six in New York, the [Baby Brownies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiki-cat) Fifty Gift Box from Ohi, the [Angel Food Bakery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/angel-city-football-club) from Minneapolis, and many more local businesses.
