Fruit baskets aren't what they used to be. Today's best fruit baskets trade in the tasteless apples and oranges for those packed with flavor and plucked right from the tree. You'll now find tropical fruits, organic fruits and even pickled fruits ready to be gifted. Stunning vegetables are also included in the mix now, as well as a few extra treats.

Fruit is also something everyone can use. It fits into a plant-based lifestyle, and we have a feeling your recipient might appreciate the break from the overload of indulgence the holiday season brings.

These are 20 of the best fruit baskets and fruit gifts you can send this season.

Get festive with this box of ruby red grapefruits from Texas. The middle is wrapped in festive "NOEL" paper which is a nice touch for a spirited holiday. Switch out some of the grapefruit for navel oranges if you prefer a variety.

Show someone you care with a box filled of local northern California goodies including both fresh, organic seasonal fruit and dried fruit from the family-owned regenerative farm, Frog Hollow Farm. Throw in local honey from nearby Miss Bee Haven as well as dark chocolate truffles made with the farm's olive oil and you have quite the giftable treat.

Spread a little sunshine this holiday season with grapefruits, tangerines and oranges brimming from a woven basket. This healthy dose of vitamin C from Florida will be sure to perk up anyone's holiday.

For a fruit gift basket that pulls out all the stops, choose this one created by Manhattan Fruitier for Williams Sonoma. A bounty of seasonal fresh fruit (varying by what's in season) is accompanied by chocolate-dipped dried orange slices, crackers, cheese, nuts and hazelnut butter for dipping the fruit. Bamboo skewers are included to make the dipping that much easier. All of this comes housed in a reusable wicker hamper which is perfect for picnicking.

There's fruit and then there is chocolate-dipped fruit. If you are looking to send something a little sweeter than the average fruit basket, this Belgian Chocolate-Dipped Fruit selection is the way to go. An assortment of chocolate-covered whole fruit, chocolate-dipped dried fruit and chocolate bark studded with fruit is sure to be an impressive gift.

Harry & David's gold-wrapped Royal Riviera pears have become a tradition in some households for being the perfectly ripened pear. They certainly have a following. For the holidays, they've taken the already-festive fruit, draped it with a red bow and added foil-embossed ornaments.

You haven't had dates until you try these from Rancho Meladuco, a date farm located in the Coachella Valley. These giant dates have a gorgeous texture and a deep caramel flavor, perfect for date lovers and soon-to-be date lovers. They pair perfectly with nut butter and sea salt, make an incredible addition to a cheese tray or are perfect to pop in your mouth as is.

A beautiful variety of fruit — grapes, papaya, mango, apples and more — make up the bulk of this basket filled with other fun treats too, like coffee, tea, honey, chocolate and more.

$79.99 for 2 dozen

Chocolate-dipped strawberries are always a fan favorite gift because you get the best of both worlds. These reindeer-dipped versions are almost too cute to eat…almost! We have a feeling both kids and adults will devour these in minutes.

Peel-and-eat tangerines are always a fan favorite and when you pair them with a bag of dried fruit, Mammoth pecan halves and a snack mix, you have a great gift that likely won't last long in any household.

This bounty of fruit is perfect for any holiday celebration. You'll get selections native to Oregon and beyond all in a reusable cloth and wire basket. Apples, pears, oranges, kiwi, pineapple and mango will help your recipient kick the new year off the healthy way.

Fruit and cheese? Yes, please! This wooden crate has a little bit of everything for a holiday snack like fesh fruit paired with grass-fed cheddar, crackers and nuts to nibble on while last-minute holiday preparations are done.

Fresh cut-up fruit is always a winning gift because you can eat it as is with little prep. These fruit bouquets are adorable and ready to eat with melon-shaped flowers dotted with chocolate-dipped strawberries. It's sure to be a delight for adults and kids.

A cherry lover’s dream! This box is filled with two pounds of cherries: one pound of sweet cherries, eight ounces of milk chocolate-covered cherries and eight ounces of dark chocolate-covered cherries. Perfect for sharing, you may just want to hide a few of the chocolate-covered ones. They'll go lightning fast.

Perfect for a family with young kids, this box contains some delicious tropical fruits along with fun-shaped fruit cutters and popsicle molds to turn this into a fun holiday activity, too. Recipes round out the package that may even get the pickiest kid to want to try new flavors.

Traditional meets tropical in this fruit basket that includes the usual suspects like apples and pears but also mango, papaya, kiwi and avocado. The colorful assortment is beautiful to look at when it arrives and even better to eat.

Who couldn't use a dose of sunshine in the dead of winter? This citrus basket includes the best fruit for juicing, cocktail making or just eating as is. Oranges, mandarins, grapefruits, lemons and limes are all wrapped with a satin red bow in a reusable wicker basket and ready for gift-giving.
