I wanted to post
for you some nice seasonal foodie items that might be good ideas as
Christmas presents or as treats for yourself. And once again I hope
that my family members aren't reading the blog right now, as there
may be some spoilers!
I already treated
myself with this gorgeous cotton and pine bouquet. I will be in
Finland for Christmas, but I still wanted to decorate my flat here in
England a bit as well. Of course the Christmas lights have already
been up since the first advent.
So here are some
nice products that I have spotted and tried. Roasted salted nuts with
a hint of hickory smoke are quite special, excellent nuts, but and
all sorts of other nuts are perfect at Christmas as well.
I accidentally
bumped into these Finnish style Danish sea salt liquorice and
obviously had to buy them as a friend of all things liquorice.
Why not have some
lightly salted Christmas tree tortilla chips or winter berries &
prosecco crisps? The prosecco crisps really surprised me. They have
edible gold stars on them as decoration and have quite a nice
prosecco fizz in the taste.
Vegetarian pies of
all sorts are brilliant seasonal food and I just love the Christingle
pie by Pieminister. It's a roast parsnip, Cheddar, leek and chestnut
pie and very comforting.
Mulled wine and
cider are things that I refuse to celebrate any winter fests without.
Okay, maybe it's not quite that extreme, but they are nice warming
drinks.
Chocolate, what
shall I say... there will be plenty of it around and who can resist:
pralines, drinking chocolate, chocolate spread – is that enough
chocolate for now?
Nice labels,
ribbons and wrapping paper are almost the best thing about Christmas
and I found many cute animal themed things again this year!
This was just a
quick compilation of some products, of course homemade presents are
still unbeatable. Are you going to give food presents this year?
