S/O: Favorite winter seasonal items at TJs (and elsewhere)?

Anonymous
What are your favorite winter seasonal items at TJs?

Like: Belgian drinking chocolate, little grinch tree (I’ve never bought one but they look so cute)
Dislike/overrated: peppermint Jojos, peppermint green tea


Any other seasonal items you like, maybe at places like World Market or Aldi’s?

I like the gingerbread cake/cookie mix and the hot chocolate spoon and marshmallow things.

I wanna get a grinch tree!

Oh and I love the balsam cedar candle.

Do you use the gingerbread mix for cake or cookies? I was wondering about baking as a cake with mixins or maybe cookies with chocolate chips.

I love Twinings Christmas tea. World Market carries it and I saw it at Bed Bath and Beyond yesterday. I used to regularly find it at the grocery, but then suddenly I couldn't and so I bought directly from Twinings - I usually place an order for ~8 boxes and use them up through the year.

Cake. I have a ginger cookie recipe that I'm very partial to.

The little iced gingerbread people cookies!

And the gingerbread mix, which we also use for cake not cookies. The cocoa dusted truffles. A wreath for the front door.

I have never noticed the Grinch trees. This might be the year for one of those.

I have have various kringles from TJ and they are dangerously good. Too good, as in I cannot stop myself from consuming waaaay too much.

Other TJ Xmas favorites: candy cane tea, cosmic crisp apples (not holiday, but they are out now and have a limited season), the Xmas gummies, the red cube box of Belgium truffles.

World Market: nougat bars with the candied jelly pieces in them, kinder chocolate, the european tiny foil wrapped Santa chocolates, charms candy
