Happy thanksgiving to all of our lovely followers who celebrate it. We don’t celebrate it here in the UK but we are so thankful for all of followers. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful and supportive community ♥️ We hope you all have a lovely day and eat lots of food 🦃 Kate & Alex x

Everytime funny to see, how you open „Ritter Sport“ ☺️🤗

Bio means organic in French, so I imagine it’s the same for Germany!

So much to say about this incredible box ! Danke to Michelle for all her thoughtfulness and care. It was nice to actually see her video of pronouncing and explaining. Yes we do advent calendars. Mine this year is sayings. You both look adorable in your Christmas 🎄 hats. We have Kinder eggs here , but no small toy pieces now as Kate said. Just a lovely 😊 way to start off the Christmas holiday with this amazing box. Thank you and love ❤️ from the USA 👍💕😊👏🎄

Grew up in Wisconsin with German ancestry (nearly everyone Wisconsin has German ancestry) and many versions of these things were available in our local supermarkets during the holidays. Most of us had a grandmother that made much of it from scratch. Springerle (anise cookies), macaroons and stollen are still super popular in American homes w/ German ancestry around the holidays. Happy holidays!

I love how you guys pronunce Aldi and Lidl. Lidl almost Sounds like Little when you say it😂

Thank you so much to the lovely Michelle! We absolutely loved trying her German box.

The Last Christmas card was a song put out well before you were born probably by Burl Ives, he had many songs and this is from his Christmas Album and was the first Christmas music I listened to for many years, always got my spirit going. 🤣😂. He also narrated the old versions of Rudolph and Frosty on tv. That box looked amazing, thanks for sharing as usual. I love Kinder chocolate, it’s one of my top chocolate favs. 🙋🏼

German sweets and treats are amazing. I literally take an extra case with me for German treats when I go. There are whole sections of Lindt in department stores bigger that our Cadbury’s sections in our supermarkets. You should treat yourselves to a trip to Germany during the Xmas market time. It’s the most magical experience. The sights and smells make it feel just like olden times Christmas, plus it makes you very hungry. There’s no better country at Christmas for me! You can get Spekulatius, Stollen and Lebkuchen in UK supermarkets now. The candied almonds come in various different nuts on the Xmas markets, sometimes the ones that come over to the Uk. You should try schokokuss too they’re amazing. The brand you recognised on the Lebkuchen is because Bahlsen Leibniz is available in the UK too

Love this video!❤️ fun fact: the Christmas tree (Christbaum) 🎄 tradition originates from Germany!😊 The green of the evergreen fir is supposed to symbolize awakening life, the candles stand for the return of light and the associated hope for the brighter season. The first fir tree as a symbol of Christmas was first mentioned in a document at the beginning of the 17th century.

Never get tired of these tasting videos!😍

We get not only German imports for Christmas but UK/British ones too... We get the stollen cakes usually with either chocolate or marzipan covering, and we get little gingerbread cookies covered in powdered sugar called Pfeffernüsse we get spekulatas all year round, both Dutch ones and German ones. My heritage is Scottish German and French Canadian, though I was born here in British Columbia, but my grandparents were from Scotland, Germany & Quebec so I've eaten many of these things growing up. We also use to have a Marks and Spencers here too and several stores that would import British and UK products. We also use to have stores that would bring in British jams and such for Christmas and Easter but now we can pretty much get them year round at certain stores.

My sister-in-law is German, she's with my brother in Berlin right now. So we get to try German food regularly and it's always so good.

Many thanks to Michelle and thanks to you two for trying out these festive treats from my home country. You're always so respectful and appreciative in your reviews. Hope you and your folks have a wonderful Christmas time.

I enjoy seeing all the different snacks you show in your vlogs. It teaches me so much about other countries.

Yes we do advent calendars you can get them very inexpensively or you can buy the more pricey ones, they have tea ones and coffee ones too not just chocolate ones too

Can't express enough how much your vlogs make me smile, laugh, drool ever so slightly, at the same time....... lol. Have been a candy fanatic since I was a little one, sweet tarts, gummy-bears, Popeye candy cigs, humbugs......could go on and on. Big hugs, best wishes sent from Canada's capital Ottawa...….cheers

Tummy rumbling watching you tasting all those German Christmas treats, yum-yum!

I think I will add a trip to Germany during Christmas time to the bucket list. This box seemed epic! Mad love to the both of you!

Hey Kate. The song that you were talking about in the Christmas card that was sent to you, that played "have a holly jolly christmas", it actually is sung by a famous singer. That's the original Burl Ives version.😊 I really enjoy your video's. Love watching you guys! Merry Christmas!

This is definitely my top 5 boxes that you’ve done.I absolutely love kinder, it’s so delicious! Thanks guys! 😘

I’m so happy you made a video with German Christmas snacks! I love Spekulautus!!! At Aldi, I love getting the Spiced Spekulautus with almond flakes on the bottom half. I’ve bought them the past two years from Aldi for the Christmas season. I never bought myself an advent calendar of snacks til thus year. I got the cheese one. We have them here in the US. Kids get the chocolate ones as well as adults. I like the chocolate covered ginger cakes shaped like hearts. Those are delicious! I can’t wait for more Christmas taste test videos.

I just found your channel this evening. I was actually looking up Norwegian snacks, & then I found your German ones. It’s been very fun watching you try the snacks from the places where I have heritage.

I've been watching you guys for about a year or more I love you two your very refreshing and relaxing! Your taste testing are my favorite ❤

The Holiday Taste Tests are the best! Also happy thanksgiving to you both best of wishes

Yes in the USA we do advent calendars too. I got my son a Lego advent calendar this year that’s Harry Potter themed

Everything looks so good. Your videos never disappoint ❣️

We had Thanksgiving today and am amazed it's here already. My favorite time of the year is Christmas. Happy it is here but gobsmacked as you all say. Flabbergasted, we'd say. Hehehe

I'm German Canadian, & my Mom used to make Kipfel. Crescent shaped cookies. We have advent calendars in some stores here.

What a lovely box Michelle! I also love hearing how different accents sound in English! We do have quite a few German brands at Aldi here in America. We had a Danish exchange student staying with us a few years ago and he loved those brands.

My daughter is 41, she got two advent calendars for her birthday and she has finished both. She has no will power

Hello from New Zealand. Love your videos and yes this year has flown by

Yummy looking treats, German is difficult but neat. Another fun one guys! 💖

This video was amazing. Your videos are the best when it comes to tasting candies and snacks and all around everything super good. Love you Kate and Alex😍😄

USA definitely has Advent Calendars, in fact during Thanksgiving dinner today my 20 and 22yr old daughters reminded me to get them!!

What a lovely way to end my day! I’m German on my mother’s side but sadly I’ve not had any of these yummy treats. Looks like another epic box, so many cute things. So nice of you both to have a giveaway, especially at Christmas. I’d love to win, it my turn to host Christmas, I’d love to share with my family especially my two grands!

Just what I needed. I see a Kate and Alex upload, I click the "like" button and I start watching.

We in Canada do advent calendars. My kids have all grown so we don't do them anymore😥, however we do have lots of adult advent calendars😉. Christmas is my favorite time of the year. This year HAS flown by.

We also have advent calendars in Canada :) my kids who are 5&3 look forward to them every year!.

You drink Fruchtpunsch and Glühwein warm! You get it on every Christmas market. The Fruchtpunsch (also Kinderpunsch) is usually for kids. Glühwein is an alcoholic Version for adults. It is the nicest thing to stand outside in the cold at the Christmas market and drink Glühwein with friends. Although I always go for kinderpunsch - I just enjoy the non alcoholic more ;)

We also just got kinder bueno’s here in the US and I finally got to try them and they are my favorite!!!!!! I have also seen some of the kinder characters at target so we have different kinder things here now which is exciting!

I love watching you two try different things!!!♡♡♡

Happy turkey day and yes Americans have Advent calendar in chocolate or candy cane

Loved this video. I’m really in the Christmas spirit now! As usual, love the repartee between you both. Happy holidays! 🎅🏻🤶🏻

This is why I neve took German in High school! LOL. Such a hard language to learn. Really sweet of her to send a video with her box! I love these vlogs!!!❤️

Yes! We love the advent calenders, in America!! A very special tradition in my family ❤

I’m not sure if all states have them, but recently here in Texas, we have had Kinder Bueno in stores. I love them and was so excited to finally try them after hearing about them from y’all.

You should video tape you guys eating the candy from the advent calendar everyday or whatever kind of calendar it is, then post it on christmas one video for all 25 days

America does do advent calendars and they have 25 windows.

That's Burl Ives singing Have A Holly Jolly Christmas in that card.

Yeah we have a advent calendar for Christmas, have fun opening the flaps everyday😋

So jelly! I used to live in Augsburg, Germany from the ages of 7-14. I MISS IT SO MUCH!

We have Aldi here in Kansas and they do have German things sold here. I so love Aldi.

People in the US do have advent calendars, but they aren't always chocolate. For the past two years I've bought my son the LEGO Star Wars minifigure advent calendar. Also, that's definitely Burl Ives singing Holly Jolly Christmas on that card.

my German heart broke when you opened the Ritter Sport chocolate the wrong way

canada also does advent calendars! typically they’re chocolate, but this year my best friend got me a tea advent calendar! each day has 2 teabags, with a different flavour every day🥰

America does have Advent Calendars. I've had one since I was little. My brother and I always looked forward to those every year.

Loved this sweet package ! Michelle is so great to narrate all the treats and teach you some German ! And she is so pretty ! My grandkids have a lot of advent calendars. Lego ones, my granddaughter found a Disney - Frozen themed one , and T. Joe’s has chocolate ones for 99 cents . I have a wooden one with mini doors in it I put a dollar per day for each kid . And on Christmas Eve they get five bucks ! It is my granddaughters birthday that day ! She will be seven . It’s a bit hard to crave these German treats when I am still so full of delicious Turkey !! And all the trimmings . Now time for some Christmas spirit . It used to be most stores were closed for Thanksgiving. But this year even our giant mall was open . We fell bad for the employees missing their sacred day with family . Thank you for the wonderful video!! 👑 🍫 🏰 🎄

Oh man the German candy boxes always look so good!

I just bought the Cadbury candy box, it shipped today. I can’t wait to try it with my husband, nieces and nephew.

I'm not American but I'm definitely thankful for a 40 minute video!

I got my Christmas Box from you guys, and its AMAZING! I am doing my best to wait to share it with my family, but it's so tempting to hide in my closet and just eat the whole thing! 🤣 I did sneak one of the Cadbury chocolate orange snowmen, and it was delicious! Reminded me of a Terry's Chocolate Orange, but better! Thank you guys!!!

Yes we definitely do Advent Calenders here in America, Its very nice seeing St. Joseph's and The Blessed Virgin Mary's journey to Bethlehem. 🎄😊

Christmas already? Oy! 😸 But I can't not watch your noms-box videos, K&A. Your gastronomic exploration of the world via post is always some of my favorite YT content. How sweet and lovely is Michelle for the multimedia box of goodies? It all looked so good, too! (...Maybe sounded a bit tongue-wringing, but only to say aloud.)

Yes Kate, America also has Advent Calendars !!

Every year when I was growing up in the 1970s my grandmother would give me and my sisters our own advent calendars and it had chocolate in them. It would be so cool if the US got the advent calendars with the tea bags. What a great idea. When I was growing up my great grandmother, who was German and lived in Germany, would send her daughter, my grandmother, and her grandchildren, my mother and two uncles, a large metal tin full of different boxes of German cookies. My sisters and I would get so excited when we would see the postal truck around Christmas. Each year I go to Aldi and buy some of the German cookies that I remember. I haven't been to Lidl around Christmas to see what they have but I will have to. I always loved the heart shaped cookies. Probably because they hearts and I love hearts.

I love all German Christmas Candies, especcialy that honey heart :) They have really amazing sweets...

What an epic box. I've tried both of those Ritter bars. Yummy. I agree that German xmas treats are really good 👍👍👍👌👌👌🙂

Its so funny to hear you speaking of my hometown Aachen 😂

We have advent calendars here in Canada too. The ones for kids have popular kids movie characters and other things. There are also Lego ones with Lego stuff inside each one and many other ones with toys too.

I came back from Thanksgiving din er with extended family. I am now relaxing and trying to stay awake. I enjoy watching all of your videos. I have tried to think of a box I could send you but you have had many from the USA. I would like you to try a Christmas treat we enjoyed as kids. Get a lemon and a couple of regular size candy canes. (Not minis.) Break off the curly top of the candy cane then bite off the bottom. You should have a porous candy stick now. Cut the lemon in half and stick one end of the candy cane in the lemon. Now suck on the other end of the candy cane. You get sweetened Peppermint and Lemon juice. Delicious. Have a happy holiday and keep on making these videos.

in finland, we also have those milka snow balls but marabou makes them! 😄

Such a great video ❤️

Wow I love this Christmas video.. And your house is amazing!!! Kisses from Greece ❤️

Those first cookies u tried I really like those

In America we do have advant calenders it's one of my favorite parts of the Christmas season. We have different types of them chocolate(traditional) , socks, mini wines. And so much more. You can find them all online.

Kate here in Belgium we say speculoos or speculaas. In Germany they say it a little different

Another fun holiday box. Kate, your lipstick stayed intact throughout. What brand is so long-lasting? You look beautiful in bold red shades.

That box looked delicious and was very "Christmasy". I'm always impressed how well Europeans speak English when it's not their native language. They must start learning English at a very young age. Have a good week and remember Christmas is right around the corner.

I'm half German herd of most of these but did not try recently much. I live Toronto Ont Canada

HEY YOU TWO! OH MY THANKSGIVING GOT ME VERY BEHIND....I AM SO SORRY! I REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO...I THOUGHT MOST OF ALL THOSE THINGS LOOKED REALLY YUMMY! MY DAUGHTER AND I HAVE DECIDED WE WANT TO DO ADVENT CALENDARS THIS YEAR SO I REALLY ENJOYED THAT. CANNOT WAIT TO SEE HOW YOU GUYS ENJOY THAT. WE HAVE AN ALDI GROCERY STORE NEAR US AND THEY CARRY A LOT OF GERMAN THINGS AND I ALWAYS ENJOY BUYING THE DIFFERENT THINGS AS MOST OF THE TIME IT IS ALWAYS REALLY DELICIOUS. WHAT A DELICIOUS BOX!!!! SOORY TO BE LATE.....LOVE YOU GUYS....HUGS.....JANE

I actually go to a culinary school for baking and pastry and we made homemade stalland bread!!! It is amazing fresh. If you ever have a chance to make it, I would. So good! 😁

It should be at least 188.000 views not just 18.000 This is great content for all candy 🍭 🍬/snack lovers 🥰 plus these are Christmas snacks 🎄

Hello Alex and Kate miss you so much and can’t wait to see you again Xx

I agree this year definitely went by way too fast!! I can't believe Christmas 🎄 is only 3 weeks ago!! 😳

Another awesome video guys ❤️❤️❤️

So excited for this!

i live in the Netherlands near Germany. And i absolutly love food from Germany!! Hopefully i will get my hands on some christmas goods soon :)

So many incredible German goodies!

Haven’t watched the video yet but I know it’s great 🥳🥰

That's Burl Ives singing Holly Jolly Christmas 🎄 from the classic Christmas special Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!! 😊🎄

Happy holidays to our friends

An another good idea would be a Easter box of German candy, here in Germany is Easter Candy sooo good

We have advent calendars in the US. One of the things I like most is that we don't just have chocolate. You can get a Lego calendar and open one Lego piece a day that you use to make something, a tea calendar where you get a different tea every day, or a lotion calendar with a different body lotion every day, for example.

I love u guys!! Cant wait until u try the american christmas version! Thank u for the chance to win!! 🙂🙂🙂🙂

That's funny I was eating cashew nuts watching you.. The hearts filled with gingerbread flavours u can find in tescos during end of November / December xx

the black forest cake is schwarzwalder kirschtorte from Germany/Austria

Early again😂 amazing video I love the lighting in the background so festive 💙 haha Alex can’t have chocolate in the mornings, and here in texas some people wake up eating hot Cheetos 😐😂

Yes USA goes advent calendar to

Not seen those Lindt bars in where I"m at in Canada, maybe in other areas here in Canada but never on the west coast...
