International Christmas Desserts

What are your favorite Christmas desserts? I love to travel (which hasn’t been so easy lately) and food from around the world. Some of the best times I’ve had traveling are during the holiday season, and traditional food other cultures celebrate Christmas with. Below are some of my favorites. If you try any, be sure to leave me a comment below!

Great Stocking Stuffers for Everyone

This time of year everyone is excited for the holidays. A favorite tradition is the opening of the Christmas Stocking on Christmas morning. Now Santa Claus normally takes care of filling it but it’s always fun to add a little extra yourself to round it out. Here are some fun seasonal ideas you can great pretty reasonably for all ages. There really is something for everyone.

Happy Holidays!
