Are you looking to give your holiday some old-world charm? Look no further than our European Christmas market! You'll find edible delights made with tried-and-true recipes handed down from generation to generation and quite a few European candies perfect for filling stockings, too!

Your Favorite Candies and Baked Goods from Europe

German Christstollen, Marzipan Stollen, Pfeffernusse, Lebkuchen, Italian Panettone Christmas bread, and Christmas plum pudding; these are just a few of the incredible baked goods you can find at The Vermont Country Store. We recognize that sweets from Europe are worth having during the holiday season. These delicious cookies, pastries, and cakes come from a few of our favorite countries, where they specialize in baking them with fine ingredients and traditional recipes. You’ll instantly be transported to a festive European Christmas market when trying the amazing confections we carry.

While you may not have heard of some of the delectable baked goods we have in our European market, we can assure you they’re worth trying! Make this Christmas extra special by bringing one of these treats from Europe to the table after dinner. Who knows, you may just discover your new favorite holiday dessert!

Spirited Chocolates for Adults Celebrating the Season

Be a favorite amongst the older crowd. Play Santa and tuck chocolate bottles filled with German Gluhwein or Asbach brandy chocolates into all the adult stockings hung up on the mantle! And these aren’t the only liquor-filled or liquor-infused chocolates we have in our European Christmas market. From authentic rum balls made in Germany (using double the rum!) to chocolate Guinness pints and Baileys chocolates for a taste of Ireland, there’s plenty for the adult palette to indulge in here. Our spirited chocolates make fantastic Christmas day gifts and are also ideal for after holiday dinner.

We Carry European Treats for the Kids

We carry candies and baked goods that kids can enjoy, too! From chocolate-dipped marzipan kugels to chocolate Santas, and delicious Christmas cookies, you can shop our selection for people of all ages. Have Butler’s hot chocolate on hand for the most delightful, rich cup of hot chocolate made from solid chocolate discs that melt into warm milk. If you’re looking for something that isn’t related to food and sweets, give the gift of a miniature tea set, perfect for little ones who love to pretend and host their very own tea parties.

Celebrate All Season Long with Our European Christmas Market

Find advent calendars in our European market filled with German chocolates or English tea to count down to December 25th in the most delicious fashion. Calendars are adorned with beautiful Christmastime images and may even be 3-dimensional, adding even more to your holiday decor. We also carry a special advent candle, a tradition from Germany. Burn the candlestick nightly and take time to reflect on the true spirit of Christmas.
