As much as children and adults alike might enjoy traditional advent calendars, the Andaz Hotel x Eyal Burstein collaboration takes this classic Christmas countdown to a whole new level. First of all, it features a much bigger 'calendar.' Secondly, it involves some very decadent desserts rather than tiny pieces of chocolate.
Essentially, the Andaz Hotel x Eyal Burstein advent calendar collaboration revolves around a tea time theme. In particular, it centers around a large table that has been set with antique tea cups, bowls and trinkets that will hold a new dessert every day leading up to Christmas. Burstein himself found the vintage tea paraphernalia and made the octagonal resin table while the Andaz pastry chef created the desserts for hotel guests.
