Nearing the close of each year, people are treated to a variety of new and sweet advent calendar options to help them count down the days until Christmas. This year, the McCrea’s Candies Caramel Advent Calendar is being introduced to share only caramel pieces behind its doors.
As McCrea’s is known for its slow-cooked caramels with unique flavors, fans will find not just classic confectionery flavors like vanilla and chocolate but also dark roasted mocha, the savory Cape Cod sea salt and the tangy ginger fusion.
The charming, all-caramel advent calendar reminds of a storybook, as it is full of illustrations of woodland creatures that are busy at work making delicious sweets in the kitchen.
