Home-made Christmas candy means that the season has begun. There is lots more to prepare, but that’s a starter! Now I’m only waiting for my father and sister to arrive… which is soon!

They look delish! I recognize the chocolate but what is in the rest of the treat? I’m coming over to get one!!! No, no, never mind. Sigh. Must not gain back the 20lbs I’ve lost so far….must not…..well, maybe just one….
@O: Well, the marzipan dough was bought and brought from Sweden, but Anette and I did dip them in white and brown chocolate ourselves…
@Photogchic: Lol! Welcome over for a Swedish “adventsfika”, any time! Just let me know a few days in advance so I am fully inspired to make all the rest that should go with it…
@Kacy: Thanks!!
@Jacksongrrl: We just cut rolls of ready made marzipan (almost & sugar dough, in case any one doesn’t know what it is…) in white and black chocolate. Very easy and looks fabulous! Don’t worry about weight, it’s Christmas! 1 lbs (or two) will be lost after the next new year’s resolutions!
Those are almost too pretty to eat! Not that I would let that stop me….:)
Thank you for your visit. You are always welcome.
That candy looks wonderful!
Hi there,
Thanks for stopping by my blog! That is so neat you have a Ridgeback dog! I came across the black lab on acciden (he was in need of a different home and I provided one) but I have always wanted a Ridgeback, they are so beautiful and I have heard they are active and do well in active house holds. One would fit right in at out place. We do lots of hiking, running and camping.
Love your blog! I will be stopping by in the future. I have always wanted to visit Africa! You are so lucky!
Åh, vad estherigt! Jag blir helt varm i hjärtat när jar ser ditt pysslande. Tänker på dina födelsedagsfester med glassbuffé i Jönköping. Mysiga tider!
