I have an annual tradition of surprising my sisters and mom with advent calendars. Each year I try to choose something different, and over the past 10 years of doing this I've had some hits and some misses. When I saw the eCreamery advent calendar, I knew this one was likely to be a hit. But I didn't know just how great it would be!
First, I had some hesitation because my family was going on a trip together right when the calendars were set to be shipped out, and no one would be home to put them in the freezer! I reached out via email and got a response from Taylor almost immediately, reassuring me that she could set our packages to go out a little bit later to make sure they arrived when someone could take care of them. I'm so grateful, and they arrived the day we all got home, so it was perfect!
My family was so excited when they opened the boxes and saw the flavors, and that every flavor was unique! One of my sisters of course immediately tried one (or more, she wouldn't confirm) -- there's always one in every family. The one who "cheated" replied she'd had the Coffee Toffee flavor and "If it was 25 days o coffee toffee I'd be fine with it cuz it was so good."
The rest of us endured the wait, and it was well worth it. Every day so far has been incredible, and a flavor I'd absolutely want to try again! The size of the ice creams are perfect, just enough for one person to enjoy! (My other sister has to battle her husband for dibs on the flavor of the day, but that's a problem for her to solve.) They're packaged in such a lovely, secure way, too, with clear labeling. The ice creams are so creamy and jam-packed with toppings. And so far the flavors have been so fantastic but so different, from salted caramel to lemon sorbet! Every day is a new, special treat! And the 25th is a full pint of deliciousness!
I may just have to order this one for myself every year as a special lead-up to the holidays. I feel like a genius for tripping across this advent calendar because it's really been a bonus for me to have a little snack every night when the holiday season can be exhausting. I highly recommend snatching up one of the 200 limited edition advent calendars next year as soon as you get the chance!
