Inside the Box
This is a limited hot chocolate scent. It does smell fairly chocolatey.
I’m not really a fan of hard lotion. I find it cumbersome, messy, and hard to get the appropriate amount. On a positive note, the ingredients are: beeswax, cocoa seed butter, coconut oil, vanilla fruit oil, vitamin E, and cacao extract.
Sage & Citrus is from Kerrobert, Saskatchewan.
This is too delicious. It is dangerous for me. I’ve been trying not to eat it all at once. This is really good. You should buy some. Really. Now.
The candy cane flavour is subtle, but a nice addition.
Fraser Valley Gourmet is from Langley, BC, and started by 3 South African chef friends. How cool.
This candle is a limited edition with a chocolatey scent. They say it smells of rich hot cocoa & creamy marshmallows, but I don’t think if I walked into a room with it burning I’d think “Where’s the hot chocolate?”
It is 100% soy wax and hand-poured in Ontario with a 45-hour burn time.
I think maybe if you have the room for this decoration, or are setting up a place to take photos, then this would be a lovely little prop. However, I have no space for anything and I don’t have any use for it. That being said, the sign looks nice, and seems to be well made.
Samantha Ann & Co is from Warkworth, Ontario.
The packaging is very cute. I don’t really like white chocolate, but I guess I’ll have to try it.
Peace by Chocolate is from Antigonish, Nova Scotia. There is also a movie about their story that you can watch.
I think these were just thrown in for good measure as there is no information about them on the fact sheet. Gourmet du Village has lots of varieties of drink mixes, and the two we received happen to be for eggnog and a mulling mix. They don’t expire until 2026, so we’ve got time!
Gourmet du Village is from Morin-Heights, Quebec.
This popcorn is quite good, but not addictive. That doesn’t make it a bad thing!
Bruce County Nut & Fudge Co is from Sauble Beach, Ontario, which has a storefront that is open during the summer months.
Overall Impression
This was a great box to end the subscription with. Lots of delicious things, which are my favourite.
