Gwoon – Kruidnoten Chocolate Mix
Of all the seasons, holiday especially, Christmas is my favourite. Something about the flavours associate with that season make December all the more exciting for me. I figured I’d try some seasonal snacks from another…

Spice or heat is not something we are typically used to seeing here in the Frigid North, so I can’t really speak to if this is a relatively new phenomenon, but it’s certainly caught my…
