Advent Candies
On Tuesday I wrote the post Tomorrow is Advent Candle Day and fellow CCBlogger David from Unorthodoxology misunderstood the title, for a second, as Advent Candie Day. That would be nice, huh?
Advent candies are for in Advent Calendars, but what if we used candies to build expectation?
How about buy an extra large chocolate bar from your favorite fair-trade store and break it into 25 pieces, with one piece being a quarter or half of the bar…that way the little pieces you eat will finally lead up to one big piece on Christmas morn!
Or buy 24 pieces of candy you kind of like, like mini Twix or Kit Kat bars, and then lead up to a great looking, perfect fair trade dark chocolate bar with real bits of coffee. Yeah, that would be my ultimate candy bar, and a fair trade cooperative named Santander makes them.
Or if you hate dark chocolate have 24 little pieces of dark chocolate then some milk chocolate on Christmas. If you don’t like Milk Chocolate just flip the experiment around. If you like white chocolate it’s about time you take the training wheels off…
How would you build anticipation with Advent candies?
Hello!
Well that certainly is an interesting thought! You could always make 1 kind of candy each day leading up to Christmas and on Christmas Day hand them out. That way you would have lots of different candies to choose from! I really shouldn’t get started on this though because sweets are a weakness for me. I always get good and plump during the christmas season! I can feel the fat cells forming just thinking about it!!! lol
