WHO IS EMMA?
Emma Bokken, manager of Belle Basket, is a young and entrepreneurial woman. She founded Belle Basket in January 2021, when she was 21 years old.
MY PURPOSE?
To give classic gift baskets a different look, or rather, a different “bag”. 😉
To let everyone enjoy food, regardless of allergies or intolerances.


MY STORY:
It may surprise you, but I was a difficult eater. In my childhood, I saw eating as a kind of burden, an obstacle. Quite strange for someone who grew up in a family with a long tradition of love of food. It wasn’t until young adulthood that my view of food changed, and I saw it as more than just “fuel” for the body. I realised that food can also be fun and enjoyable, that it is about much more than just “eating”…

However, a few years later and a few extra kilos, my own body put a stop to my relationship with food. I was diagnosed with a very high lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, this is a component found in a lot of different foods. Simple things like going out to eat with friends or enjoying an aperitif with snacks were no longer a given. I had to start from scratch and find my love for food in other products than what I was used to.
Because of these difficulties, I would like to share my story and pass on a message.
Intolerances and allergies are becoming more common today. I therefore felt a need to make food products attractive (again) and decided at the age of 21 to start up Belle Basket. The focus at Belle Basket is to categorise allergens, making the search for a product easier for everyone. If I can somehow contribute to giving people a different view of food, then I have succeeded. After all, it is so much more than just “fuel” for our bodies. I firmly believe that food is the engine that creates strong personal and social bonds. It connects us and allows us to enjoy and grow together. With the slogan “Because food is a gift”, I want to emphasise this. Because, honestly, what could be nicer than surprising someone with a delicious gift, or spoiling yourself?
