Since Taiwan is known as the kingdom of fruit, giving fruit gifts is prevalent. Fruit can be used as a gift for Chinese New Year, hospital patients, or weddings.

Imported fruits are also popular as presents; thus Washington cherries, Washington apples, Korean pears, seedless grapes are good options as well!

American people often express their love through gifts. They would make their presents simple while being practical. A basket of fruit, a box of chocolate, or a bottle of wine is a popular choice as gifts. Generally, American people would use a large basket and a huge variety of fruits with iconic American desserts and candies that represent their culture to make the gift more intriguing. Free and easy, yet romantic, gifts in American style are casual, and come with good etiquette.
