Product Description
This German advent calendar with glitter accents depicts a chocolate shop in Victorian times bustling with Christmas activity. The mouthwatering display of sweets seen though the shop windows and doors is made festive for the season with garlands and fir trees. An angel sits atop the icicle and snow covered overhang with lebkuchen cookie in hand. Townsfolk bring home baskets laden with traditional German sweets, decorations, and gifts.
