]]>One of those classic holiday treats we look forward to every year, chocolate peppermint bark has become a tradition. Who can resist the mouth-watering slabs of premium dark chocolate and white chocolate with swirls of crushed peppermint candy canes on top? We always like to keep a bag at home during this time of year, and it’s a real crowd-pleaser, too!
These stunning yogurt snowflake pretzels are the perfect treat to put you in a wintry holiday mood. They’re made from snowflake shaped pretzels, generously dipped in a sweet vanilla yogurt coating and studded with lovely sugar crystals. If you enjoy our regular yogurt covered pretzels, we’re sure you’ll be a fan of this holiday treat version.
If you love gummy bears, you’ll love these squishy and adorable Christmas gummy bears. They come in festive colors of red, green and white, as well as delicious fruity flavors. These gummy bears are the sweetest addition to an appetizer table, and also make a wonderful after-dinner treat.
4) Sugar Plums
Soft and sweet, these gummy sugar plums are sparkling with delicate sugar crystals. These make a great stocking stuffer for the holidays, and are also delicious to serve with coffee or tea. You can also use them as a cupcake topper; simply press one sugar plum into the frosting to add a lovely touch to your baked treats.
5) Peppermint Malted Milk Balls
Love malted milk balls? Love the flavor of peppermint? This unique holiday treat is our classic milk chocolate malted milk balls wrapped in a layer of white chocolate with a kiss of peppermint flavor. The white chocolate layer actually has real pieces of crushed peppermint sticks in it, so your taste buds will be in for a whirlwind of minty goodness.
These are similar to the yogurt snowflake pretzels, but they’re shaped like cute Christmas trees. The sweet vanilla yogurt coating is drizzled with festive red and green frosting. Sure to liven up any Christmas party, these crunchy pretzels are the perfect combination of salty, sweet and holiday cheer.

]]>1. Candy Cane Cake
Nothing quite screams the holiday season like peppermint candy canes, and now you can take that signature flavor and infuse it into a vegan peppermint cake. Bake this cake and bring it along with you to your next holiday get-together (chances are, none of your friends and family will be able to tell it’s vegan). To bake the cake and make the peppermint glaze, you’ll need pink Himalayan salt, applesauce, almond milk, and candy canes.
2. Coconut Snowball Cookies
You won’t be able to stop yourself from chowing down on these delectable coconut snowball cookies. This blogger even gives you two different ways to make these cookies: “with mud” or “without mud” (the difference is vegan chocolate chips!). For this recipe, you’ll need ingredients including unsweetened coconut shreds, bananas, Brazil nuts, and brown sugar.
3. Apple Dumplings
These scrumptious apple dumplings are comparable (or even better!) than the regular Thanksgiving apple pie. There are three different parts you’ll have to assemble for this recipe: the dough, the filling, and the syrup. You’ll need molasses, dried cranberries, apples, cinnamon, and bread crumbs.
4. Peanut Butter Fudge
It doesn’t get more decadent than peanut butter fudge. If you want a holiday treat that’ll have your taste buds screaming for more, this is it! Not only is this peanut butter fudge delicious, it’s also really easy to make. You’ll only need seven ingredients, including organic brown sugar, creamy peanut butter, and vegan chocolate chips.
5. Christmas Pudding
If you’re looking for a delightful vegan pudding recipe, we’ve found the perfect one for you. Even better, you can make this pudding way ahead of time — it’ll store in the fridge almost indefinitely! You’ll need seedless raisins, currants, dried cranberries, and walnuts.
