"Nothing sparks joy and jumpstarts the Christmas season like a cardboard box filled with 25 tiny compartments each housing a festive treat or token hidden behind a perforated door. I'm talking, of course, about advent calendars. And if you're thinking of ordering one to enjoy this year, the time is now-there's just one month left until December 1st, and you'd be surprised how quickly these things sell out or get backordered every year."
"Trust me, I love a classic grocery store advent calendar filled with chocolates in fun novelty shapes. Sure, those chocolates typically arrive dusty and stale, but the fun is mostly in the opening of the treats, not in the treats themselves, right? Well, not necessarily. The best advent calendars contain high-quality sweets, booze, condiments, snacks, teas, or coffees you'll be genuinely excited to consume."
"This list is filled with advent calendars for every type of food and beverage enthusiast, many of them from brands we've long known and loved: a chile crisp-filled calendar from Fly By Jing, a Bonne Maman calendar filled with mini jam jars, and a chocolate advent calendar for Wicked fans from LA-based chocolatier Compartés. Pick one up for yourself, or snag a few to gift to friends in the lead-up to the holiday season."
Advent calendars provide 25 compartments with daily treats or tokens behind perforated doors, acting as a ritual that jumpstarts the Christmas season. Grocery-store novelty chocolate calendars prioritize fun over quality, while premium calendars deliver high-quality sweets, spirits, condiments, snacks, teas, or coffees worth consuming. Premium options can reveal new favorite products and frequently sell out or become backordered before December. Available calendars span many food and beverage categories, with examples including a chile crisp calendar from Fly By Jing, Bonne Maman mini jam jars, and themed chocolate calendars from LA-based chocolatier Compartés.
