The Sundowner's Board: A Biltong and Cheese Hamper for the Long Cape Saturday
The Sundowner's Board is the gift you send to someone who knows how to set a table and slow a Saturday down. A wooden cheese board with knife, a wedge of Président Traditional Camembert, a fresh sourdough loaf, beef biltong, a tin of Funky Ouma cold-extracted Western Cape olive oil, and a 250ml bottle of Willow Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Balsamic from the Nuy Valley. All hand-packed at our Claremont studio into a kraft gift box with soft wood-wool. It is less a hamper and more a stoep afternoon, posted to their door.
We have been curating gift boxes in-house since 1999, with 5,800+ reviews across Google, Trustpilot and Loox behind every order. Same-day delivery in Cape Town and nationwide courier in two to four working days to every province.
What's Inside The Sundowner's Board
- A wooden cheese board with cheese knife, the centrepiece of the gift, designed to be used and kept.
- Président Traditional Camembert, the high-fat French-style soft cheese that does the heavy lifting on the board.
- Fresh sourdough loaf, hand-baked, the kind of bread that justifies an entire afternoon (Cape Town same-day orders only).
- Beef biltong, dry-cured South African biltong, the savoury anchor of any Cape sundowner board.
- Funky Ouma cold-extracted extra virgin olive oil, 500ml tin, from the Western Cape.
- Willow Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Balsamic Wine Vinegar, 250ml, oak-matured at the Nuy Valley estate.
- Eco-friendly kraft gift box with soft wood-wool, hand-packed and finished by us.
Specific products may rotate by stock and season. We substitute with same-tier South African and French-style alternatives of equal or higher value. The wooden board, biltong, olive oil and balsamic are fixed. The sourdough loaf ships only with Cape Town same-day orders; on nationwide orders, we swap it for an artisan sourdough cracker or rusk pack so the bread arrives at its best.
A Cape Town Sundowner Tradition, Boxed
The Cape sundowner is its own thing. Late afternoon, a board on the kitchen counter or out on the stoep, somebody slicing biltong, somebody else opening the olive oil. The Sundowner's Board is built around that ritual. The Funky Ouma olive oil is cold-extracted from olives grown in the Western Cape. The Willow Creek balsamic comes from a Nuy Valley estate that ages its vinegars in oak. The biltong is South African dry-cured beef. The Camembert is the international shorthand for "this is a real cheeseboard." Together, they make a gift that is recognisably Cape, recognisably hosted, and recognisably masculine without being heavy-handed about it.
Who To Send The Sundowner's Board To
This board has earned its keep across our most-asked-for gifting moments. Send it as a Father's Day gift to a dad who would rather host than be hosted. Send it for a milestone birthday gift for men or a husband's anniversary. Send it to a boyfriend who has just moved into a new place. It is one of our most-sent luxury corporate gifts for South African business partners, visiting clients, and team year-end recognition through our staff appreciation gifts range. For more options in the masculine range, browse gift boxes for men, the broader business gifts hub, and our executive gifts collection. For something quieter or floral instead, the Hello Handsome Hamper sits alongside as a non-board alternative, and the Golden Majesty vase arrangement adds a fresh-flower pairing.
Funky Ouma olive oil, a Willow Creek Cabernet balsamic, a wedge of Camembert, sourdough, biltong, and a wooden board built to be used. Sent for the kind of Saturday that does not need a plan.
Cape Town Same-Day and Nationwide Courier Delivery
Order before 12pm Monday to Saturday and we deliver The Sundowner's Board the same day to anywhere in Cape Town from our Claremont and Sea Point studios. For Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Stellenbosch, Hermanus, Bloemfontein, Port Elizabeth, East London, George and every other suburb and city our courier reaches, the board arrives by nationwide courier in two to four working days. The Camembert and biltong travel sealed and cold-chain stable. The olive oil, balsamic and wooden board are shelf-stable. Sourdough is included only on Cape Town same-day orders for freshness reasons; on nationwide deliveries we swap it for an artisan cracker or rusk pack so nothing arrives stale. For the wider hamper range, browse our gift baskets hub, and for ideas on what to send for every occasion, our gift baskets guide covers our most-sent picks.
How To Set Up Your Sundowner's Board
Let the Camembert come to room temperature for 20 minutes before serving. Slice the sourdough into thick pieces (or arrange the crackers on the board). Drizzle a little olive oil and a few drops of balsamic into two small dishes on the board for dipping. Lay the biltong out alongside. Open a bottle of something local. This is not a meal. It is a long afternoon, a few people, and not much else required. The wooden board and knife are designed to live in the kitchen long after the gift is over.
Why Order The Sundowner's Board From Fabulous Flowers
We have been a working florist and gift curator since 1999, with two studios in Claremont and Sea Point and a nationwide courier network for our non-perishable hampers. We hand-pack every Sundowner's Board ourselves, source the Funky Ouma olive oil from the Western Cape, the Willow Creek balsamic from the Nuy Valley, and the biltong from South African dry-curing producers. Our short florist near me guide covers our wider Cape Town footprint, and the top gifts feature on the blog covers the wider gifting context.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's inside The Sundowner's Board?
A wooden cheese board with knife, a wedge of Président Traditional Camembert, a fresh sourdough loaf (Cape Town same-day only) or artisan cracker pack (nationwide), beef biltong, a 500ml tin of Funky Ouma cold-extracted Western Cape olive oil, a 250ml bottle of Willow Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Balsamic, and an eco-friendly kraft gift box with wood-wool.
Is the wooden cheese board included?
Yes. The wooden cheese board and knife are part of the gift, and they are designed to be kept and used long after the food is gone.
Where do you deliver The Sundowner's Board?
Same-day delivery in Cape Town before 12pm Monday to Saturday from our Claremont and Sea Point studios. Nationwide courier delivery in two to four working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Stellenbosch, Paarl, Hermanus, Bloemfontein, Port Elizabeth, East London, George and every other suburb our courier reaches.
Is The Sundowner's Board a good Father's Day or anniversary gift?
Yes. It is one of our most-sent gifts for fathers, husbands, partners and mentors who would rather host than be hosted. The board itself, the savoury contents, and the Cape Town heritage of the producers make it a gift that lands quietly and lasts.
Is this a good corporate gift?
Yes. The Sundowner's Board is one of our most-sent corporate gifts to South African business partners and senior clients. We can bulk-order, brand the gift card, and dispatch in waves. Email hello@fabulousflowers.co.za for corporate quotes.
What happens with the sourdough on nationwide deliveries?
Fresh sourdough does not travel well past 24 hours, so on nationwide orders we substitute the loaf with an artisan sourdough cracker or rusk pack of equal value. Cape Town same-day orders still receive the fresh loaf. We never compromise on quality for the sake of an item on the list.
Does the Camembert ship cold on nationwide orders?
Yes. Camembert is sealed in its original packaging and packed with cold-chain stable insulation for nationwide deliveries. We recommend refrigerating the cheese on arrival and bringing it to room temperature 20 minutes before serving.
Can I add wine, beer, chocolates or a card?
Yes. Add a bottle of wine, craft beer, chocolates, candle, or a handwritten card at checkout and we will pack everything to be delivered together as one gift. Wine and beer add-ons may restrict delivery to Cape Town same-day depending on courier regulations.
What if a specific product is out of stock?
We substitute with same-tier South African and French-style alternatives of equal or higher value. Funky Ouma may be swapped for another Western Cape cold-extracted olive oil. Willow Creek may be swapped for another oak-matured Cape vinegar. Président Camembert may be swapped for a same-style soft cheese. We never downgrade value.
Can I order The Sundowner's Board from overseas?
Yes. We take international cards from the UK, USA, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and beyond. Our checkout converts to your local currency. We deliver to the recipient in South Africa either same-day in Cape Town or nationwide courier within two to four working days, handwrite the note on your behalf, and can send a delivery confirmation photo on request. The Sundowner's Board is one of the most-requested gifts from the South African diaspora.
Can the recipient keep the wooden board?
Yes. The wooden cheese board and knife are designed to be kept and reused for years of cheese boards, sundowners and Sunday lunches.
