You have a laundry list of things to do before Christmas. Gifts, making sure you have all the ingredients for the Christmas feast, getting the kids dressed and answering phone calls from every family member on earth. Well, as you pour your, umm, first glass of wine for the day, sit back and relax for a moment.
We’ve put together a quick list of the Top 10 Kids’ Stocking Fillers so that you have one less thing to worry about. The great news: each filler is affordable, and fun and you can pick it up when you do your Christmas grocery shopping from Food Lover’s Market.
Here are our top 10 ideas for edible stocking fillers or secret santa gifts for a sweet tooth:
1.Candy Cane Chocolate Bar
Chocolate is always a winner, but this is a delicious festive combo made in the Food Lover’s chocolate factory (Cape Roasters). Candy cane shards mixed in a milk chocolate bar, that’s bound to bring excitement when pulled out of stocking this Christmas.
2. Food Lover’s Giant Sweet Tube
The impressive giant sweet tube may not fit in a stocking but it is guaranteed excitement.
3. Candy Canes
Candy canes are a Christmas must-have. A big candy cone, or a jar of mini candy canes, take your pick from the sweet range of Food Lover’s candy canes. They are tasty, fun to eat and you can add one or more to each stocking.
4. Reindeer Nose Cookies or Christmas Cookies
Inspired by Rudolph, these cookies are perfect to dip into that hot cocoa this Christmas.
5. Festive Nut Jar
This is for the sweet, or savoury tooth. The Food Lover’s gourmet nut jars are made in small batched at our nut roastery and chocolate factory (Cape Roasters). The gourmet nut jars include salt and pepper cashews, chocolate-coated almonds (enrobed in dark chocolate and dusted in cocoa) and caramelised cinnamon mixed nuts.
6. Jellybean Tub – Santa, Snowman, Reindeer and Teddy
The kids can refill the jars with more jellybeans, or whatever they like.
7. Food Lover’s Jar of Jellies or Sherbet Filled Bonbons
Say BON-jour to a jar of delights! Not only is this bonbon jar a surprise when pulled out of the stocking, but they’ve got a surprise on the inside too with sherbet pop! Or indulge in the yummy strawberry and apple jellies. The pretty jar can be redecorated and labelled as a fun way to store small items.
8. Food Lover’s Jar of Traditional Humbugs
And more sweets, but these traditional humbugs are handcrafted and the perfect little jar to keep at your desk when you need a sweet little something.
9. Milk Chocolate Truffle Fudge Jar
Handcrafted with Belgian chocolate. Do we need to say more?! 😍
10. NUGGLES!
We could not leave the famous Nuggles out of this list. For both kids and adults, Nuggles are a winner. There are 2 options; you can get a range of Nuggles from the dispensers (per 100g) and put them in a jar or gift pack. But a pack of the gourmet Nuggles (recommended for adults) which include chocolate-coated Brazil nuts, Almonds, Mixed nuts or Hazelnut, or a packet of the ‘everyday’ Nuggles which include chocolate-coated peanuts, shortcakes or raisins.
PS: The Nuggles are also fun to use as “reindeer droppings!”
