Before You Order — Important Ward Rules

Some wards have specific rules on outside food. Tell us the ward when ordering and we'll advise:

• ICU & high-dependency wards — usually no outside food. Send flowers instead. See our hospital-friendly flower arrangements.
• Oncology / chemotherapy — often restricted due to infection risk. Confirm with the recipient or ward.
• Infectious disease wards — outside food typically not allowed.
• Maternity wards — generally welcome fruit hampers; the Sweet Beginnings (with bear) is popular.
• General & surgical wards — fruit hampers welcome; recommend soft, easy-to-eat fruits for post-surgery patients.

Not sure about the ward? Call us at +65 8787 6262 — we deal with hospital deliveries daily and know the rules.

 

Fruit Hamper or Flowers? Here's How to Choose

Sending something to someone recovering at home or in hospital? Both fruit hampers and flowers are popular, but they suit different situations.

Choose a fruit hamper when:

• The recipient is in hospital and can eat regular food
• You want a practical gift that gets used, not admired-and-discarded
• The recipient has flower allergies or hay fever
• It's a corporate or formal context where flowers might feel too personal
• You're sending to a shared workplace or home with many people — fruit can be shared
• The recipient has limited space (small ward, hospital bed) — flowers need vases and water changes

Choose flowers (or a mix) when:

• The gesture is more emotional than practical — anniversaries, sympathy, romance
• The recipient is in ICU or a restricted ward where food isn't allowed
• You want something visually striking on arrival
• It's a condolence or sympathy gesture

• est of both — fruit + flower hampers

  Our Miss You Berry Much! hamper combines fruit and flowers — popular for thoughtful get-well gifts where the buyer wants the practical benefit of fruit with the emotional warmth of flowers.

  How Long Will the Fruit Last? (And How to Keep It Fresh)

  Singapore's heat and humidity are tough on fresh fruit. Here's what to expect:

  • Hardy fruits (apples, oranges, pears, dragon fruit): 1–2 weeks if refrigerated; 5–7 days at room temperature
  • Mid-shelf-life (mangoes, kiwis, grapes, persimmons): 5–7 days refrigerated; 2–4 days at room temperature
  • Delicate (strawberries, raspberries, soft pears): 2–4 days even refrigerated. Consume first.

  Storage Tips for the Recipient

  1. Unwrap and inspect on arrival — remove any fruit that's bruised so it doesn't spoil others.
  2. Refrigerate the soft fruits (berries, sliced melon) immediately.
  3. Leave hardy fruits at room temperature — apples and oranges ripen better outside the fridge.
  4. Don't store with onions or potatoes — they accelerate fruit ripening.
  5. Eat the softest first — berries, then grapes, then stone fruit, then citrus, then apples.
