Holiday Picks: The Swiss Colony {Review and Giveaway}

Swiss Colony Logo

It’s about this time of year when I start anticipating all of the foods and goodies that are soon to be tasted as part of the season!

Swiss Colony

Swiss Colony has always been a part of my holiday enjoyment. I remember my dad’s clients would always give him delicious samplers for Christmas, and I especially loved trying all the cheese flavors. They have the best cheese bricks and spreads!

I still spend hours (I’m not the best decision maker) every year poring through the catalog trying to decide what I like best and must have.

Swiss Colony food gifts are affordable too – prices have been reduced this year and more than half are under $25!

I order at least one item every single year, and I try to make myself order something different each time, but there are certain things which always call out to me.

The cheese and meats selection is amazing and the cakes and desserts are insane! And yes, I realize that that most of my favorites are sweets. I can’t help it and I can’t resist it.

This year my sweet tooth won out again, because I just tried these spiced pumpkins.

They arrived in a lovely gift box, so not only would they make a wonderful gift, but they’re well protected from bumping each other.

These hand decorated little cuties are made of a creamy spice cake/cream cheese combination which surrounds a center of cream cheese, and they are delicious!

They’re like little mini pumpkin rolls, and they’re sized just right so that each one is perfectly satisfying!

And they can be frozen so you won’t be tempted to eat them all too soon.

Priced at $29.95 for 2 dozen of these treats, they’d make a wonderful addition to any holiday table…. and tummy!
