Those who love the taste of marshmallows will be especially intrigued by the 2019 marshmallow advent calendar from The Naked Marshmallow Co. While those with a sweet tooth are familiar with the idea of opening an advent calendar to find a small piece of chocolate each day until the arrival of Christmas in December, this alternative advent calendar treats people to 25 handmade gourmet marshmallows.
The festive countdown includes rotating flavors like Salted Caramel, Butterscotch, Gingerbread, Mint Choc Chip, Milk & Cookies and S’mores, which lead to a Belgian milk chocolate spoon on the last day, which is perfect for making a cup of real hot chocolate topped with marshmallow.
For even more enjoyment, the Gourmet Marshmallow Advent Calendar can be purchased with one of the brand's toasting kits.
