It's our 11th year of delivering deliciousness all over Perth & though we say this every year, between you, me and a cup o' tea piggo, this year's menu is our best yet.

The nitty gritty? (if you need more details head to our FAQ blog here)
- Orders for BOTH delivery days close Monday December 13th at 8am or when sold out.
- TWO delivery days to choose from - Friday 20th of December (did somebody say pre-Christmas entertaining sorted?) & Monday 23nd of December.
- Pickup from our Bayswater premise is available on both those dates by prior arrangement & our usual delivery zones apply. Please get in touch with The Ginger Pig (aka Chris our brilliant customer service guru) if you've got a curly delivery question.
- Heading away? Get in touch if you need to pick it up at a certain time but all our Christmas deliveries come packed on ice in our brilliant cooler boxes that keep everything cold, crisp and delicious for up to 12 hours so you’ve got time to get to your destination without having to find room in your esky.
- What comes in your delivery? Everything piggo (except Elton John & his baby grand piano). Every Christmas kit comes with all the perfectly portioned ingredients you need to create some magic.
- Serving Sizes - This is detailed on each dish description - please get in touch with Chris if you need to get into the nitty gritty of each dish or feel like you need to brainstorm just how much food you need...Hint, always get more than you think because leftovers on Boxing Day are MAGIC.

Some really great extras to make your Christmas oh-so-easy:
- Boxing Day Brunch Box - Aka the perfect way to start the best day in the Christmas calendar (in our humble opinion). Add wafer thin slices of leftover ham to your warm freshly baked croissants, add a lil splash of champagne to your cold pressed OJ & hit play on the cricket.
- Fabulous Fridge Filler Produce Box - Designed to help you skip the shops & have incredible produce over the festive season. This produce lineup is perfect for pulling together your own salads or roasted veg. With delicious marinated fetta and a big jar of our handmade gorj green dressing it would also be fabulous to take away to save shopping. We're also doing a particularly excellent tips sheet that comes with this guy so if you're high on stress and low on inspiration we've got you covered on the shopping AND planning front. #howexcellent
- Fabulous Fruit Box - Fruit at this time of year can be hit and miss so skip the shops and get us to source the freshest goodies from the markets for you. Perfect pavlovas, stunning fruit salads & snacks for hangry roaming children are all covered with this lineup of premium fruit.
- Really Good Glaze Kit - Glazed and confused on how to turn your ham into a masterpiece? Use our sensational glaze kit and step by step instructions to create some magic (or just buy our ham solo kit and save yourself shopping for a possibly inferior Christmas Ham...).
- Really Good Gravy Kit - True story? We've done this gravy recipe now for over 6 years and it consistently get's rave reviews & requests for it to be part of our regular meal kit lineup. Alas that isn't going to happen anytime soon, so stock up on this fridge essential and ensure you have lush gravy to adorn your festive season from start to finish.
- Cherry Gift Box - Pile them onto platters, have a handy bowl for nibbling on the couch/by the pool/lounging on the steps chatting with the neighbours or perfect for giving as a delicious & fabulous gift. Fresh from the markets, these guys will last beautifully and add some festive cheer to any occasion.
