2. 12 Days of Scented Candles
We love burning candles year-round, but when the days get shorter and it gets colder outside, there's something truly special about a seasonal scent. If you're a fellow candle fanatic, you'll definitely want to get your hands on this 12 Days of Scented Candles advent calendar from Trader Joe's. For just $30, you can get scents like Rhubarb, Warm Vanilla, Persimmon, Spiced Apple, and more. It's hard to choose just one; this way, you don't have to.
(P.S., Target has some fantastic cozy items you can pair with these candles for the ultimate night in.)
3. Everything but the Leftovers Seasoning
If anyone knows how to make a delicious, one-of-a-kind seasoning, it's Trader Joe's. From Seasoning in a Pickle to Everything but the Bagel Seasoning, they're pros in this category. The Everything but the Leftovers Seasoning is no exception. It has everything you need to bring the taste of a holiday meal to any dish: dehydrated onion, sea salt, black pepper, turmeric powder, dried celery seed, ground sage, rosemary powder, dried thyme, and dried parsley. Sprinkle it on veggies, eggs, meat, or anything else your heart desires.
4. Candy Cane Chocolate Covered Almonds
Attention, peppermint lovers! If you're a fan of minty desserts like the Peppermint Frosty, we're going to bet you'll love these Candy Cane Chocolate Covered Almonds. It's hard not to eat a whole package of these by the handful. These crunchy nuts are coated in dark chocolate and peppermint-flavored white chocolate for the ultimate holiday sweet treat. Plus, when you consider that both nuts and dark chocolate have health benefits, you can almost convince yourself they're good for you.
5. Gingerbread Sandwich Cookies
If you're not a huge fan of peppermint, maybe gingerbread is more your thing. In addition to Aldi's delicious soft gingerbread, consider stocking up on these Gingerbread Sandwich Cookies at Trader Joe's. Each one features two soft, sugar-coated gingerbread cookies with a sweet vanilla frosting right in the middle. Our mouths are watering just thinking about them!
