Spread the Christmas Love: Bonne Maman Reveals Festive Jar for Christmas 2024

This Christmas season, Bonne Maman is introducing their award-winning Hazelnut Chocolate Spread in a special limited edition, beautifully embellished jar, just in time for Christmas. 

Combining their much-loved spread with a touch of holiday magic, it's a perfect addition to festive snacking or makes a delicious stocking filler gift.

The whole jar is overlaid with an evocative, snowy Christmas design. Once the Hazelnut Chocolate Spread has been thoroughly enjoyed by all, simply clean, remove the label then upcycle as an adorable way to store or gift some home-made seasonal goodies or create your very own Christmas decoration!

Bonne Maman Hazelnut Chocolate Spread is made with top quality, all-natural ingredients, including a generous 20% hazelnuts and no palm oil. Perfect simply spread on toast, croissants or brioche, it also makes a wonderfully satisfying snack at any time of the day added to warm crumpets, waffles and crispy French crêpes or just popped on a simple biscuit for a special moment all of one's own. Spread on digestive biscuits is my thing!

Available while stocks last, the limited edition 360g Xmas jar will be on shelves at all major retailers from early October at rrp £3.60.
