This popular Bonne Maman advent calendar is packed with jams and more
We are big fans of advent calendars around here. In fact, it's no surprise we think they are a really great gift to kick off the holiday fun, especially for the little kiddos in your life. We picked out quite a few advent calendars perfect for kids, but in our search, we found one popular advent calendar too perfect to ignore. The Bonne Maman limited-edition advent calendar is so fun and irresistible we think it might be the perfect one to gift yourself (annually).
If you've never heard of this fan-favorite, be prepared to have your taste buds perk right up. It will give you a tasty little mini jar daily, 23 fruit spreads, and one jar of honey — for the entire month of December. This is definitely a top-seller and has a very devoted following every year, so if this is something you think you might enjoy, we suggest you scoop it up today.
The gift that keeps on giving: A new tasty spread awaits behind every door.
The jars of spreads feature special, exclusive flavors that will sweeten up the mornings and add interest to your cheese plates, level up your PB&Js and even upgrade that thumbprint cookie recipe to two thumbs-up. The jars are little — there are a couple of tablespoons in each — but 3,000-plus fans say the taste is big enough that this holiday-time sampler merits a perfect five-star rating.
The natural ingredients in Bonne Maman's spreads pop on their own without the need for all that extra garbage (high-fructose corn syrup, preservatives, faux color, etc.). And, if you want to savor the flavors, there's no need to bust through a jar a day: The contents will stay safe and fresh through June 2024.
Behind the doors await brilliant blends such as ... strawberry rhubarb, apricot lavender, apple caramel with cinnamon, fig with cardamon, raspberry chocolate and so many others. Mmm. The jar of honey is a welcome addition. The 2023 Bonne Maman Advent Calendar will make an incredible gift for anyone on your list, including yourself. Note: On the company's own website, a maximum of two limited-edition advent calendars are allowed per order, but there appears to be no limit on Amazon.
Back for a seventh year, the Bonne Maman advent calendar is a must-have for foodies and, well, anyone with taste buds and a penchant for pleasure.
An overall 4.8-star rating is rare at Amazon, but fans can't seem to praise this advent calendar enough.
"Fantastic every time!" raved one of the 3,000+ five-star fans. "I love everything about this company. From their long history and strong values to their amazing, high-quality jam and fruit products. What’s not to love? I purchase only one advent calendar every year and it’s this one. I eat Bonne Maman’s creative jam flavors on homemade sourdough crumpets. One small jar is enough servings for two crumpets. It’s a fun journey to try the new and different flavors they create. I’ve never had a flavor I didn’t like."
Another loyal customer wrote, "In addition to being cute, and incredibly giftable, the spreads are always on point. I don't buy any other advent calendar for myself, this one is so good. It's nice to wake up to a piece of toast and jam during the month of December when everything is so busy."
"Love, love, love," shared one user/gifter: "Every morning, we pop a new one out and plot how we are going to use it — on toast, a glaze for pork, in yogurt. The presentation box is beautiful and substantial, making a great gift. The box is engineered cleverly so that there is no real chance of breakage or shifting in the tiny jars."
"Absolutely stunning," crowed this craftswoman. "Delightfully yummy and tasty preserves ... made with the freshest quality of ingredients and consistently good. The red and white checked lid sets them off into a class unto their own. Not only do I enjoy the contents, the jars and their distinctive lids become a storage spot for my buttons, straight pins and other craft items along with storing other items around the house. Such a grand bonus after enjoying these tasty spreads and honey."
