Sure, Christmas Day is the big date that we all look forward to around this time of year, but the days leading up to December 25th are just as fun and special. Perhaps you dress up in matching Christmas pajamas, marathon watch all your favorite Christmas movies or make homemade hot chocolate to sip on in the cold weather. This list is never-ending because there are so many ways to get into the Christmas spirit!
And of course, one of the best ways to get excited for Christmas is by counting down the days with a classic advent calendar. Start or end the day by opening the little cardboard window that has a special treat nestled inside. The best part is that everyone can partake in the fun. From advent calendars for kids with fun toys to alcohol advent calendars for adults with tasty beers and liquors, there are so many ways to feel merry and bright. And for foodies, they can enjoy sweet treats with a chocolate advent calendar or brew an aromatic cup of coffee with a coffee advent calendar!
However, we think that one of the tastiest routes to go is with a cheese advent calendar loaded with Jarlsberg, Gouda, cheddar and more. Thanks to Aldi and other retailers, cheese-lovers can kick off the season in the best way possible! Plus, you can go the extra mile by pairing it with a wine advent calendar – yum!
Just make sure that you order these cheese advent calendars for 2023 well in advance due to limited supply in the United States. We wouldn’t want you to miss out on all the cheesy excitement!
