For 23 days leading up to Christmas, the Lebkuchen Schmidt Advent Calendar is the perfect way to reminisce the holidays. Boasting two sides full of festive treats from the bakery, behind each of the 24 doors lies an individually wrapped Lebkuchen specialty or biscuit.

This year's calendar features images from Die "Sendung mit der Maus" which is a children's show in Germany that has been popular for many years.

Advent calendars have been around since the late 1800s, with 24 pictures being hung one-by-one. In the 1920s, little doors to open became commonplace - initially containing small pictures. However, in the 1930s Advent calendars containing chocolates and biscuits gained traction. Nowadays, there are calendars with various fillings - the Lebkuchen Schmidt creation being the most delicious!

Anthon Berg began his journey with cocoa beans in 1884 and within 2 years, added Marzipan to the mix. By the early 1900's, liquor covered in sugar had become a big hit abroad, and in 1922 Anthon Berg’s take it on. The chocolate version quickly becomes popular and within a couple of years there are 12 varieties to choose from. Due to its popularity with the Danish Royal family, Anthon Berg is awarded Purveyor to the Royal Danish Court in 1957. The combination of fruit, liqueur and Marzipan is launched in the 1960s and shortly thereafter, small bottles of dark chocolate are filled with liquor. Anthon Berg continues their innovation in chocolate products, ensuring that the chocolate is just as delicious today as it was back then.
