December Box No. 04: Winter Solace

December Box Reveal: Winter Solace

Box No. 04 | December 2025

When the cold deepens, comfort turns softer.

December is the quiet heart of winter — pale light, slowed mornings, and evenings shaped by warmth rather than plans.
Winter Solace is our invitation to pause. To hold something warm. To let stillness feel generous instead of empty.

This box is built around calm rituals: gentle sweetness, grounding savoury moments, and textures that feel comforting without being heavy.
Below, you’ll find the story behind each maker and every product — why it belongs in December, and how it becomes part of your winter rhythm.


THE MAKERS & THE PRODUCTS

1. Cocopop — Chocolate Almonds (France)

A quiet indulgence for December evenings. Something to share — or not.


2. GREENOMIC — Avocado Chips (Germany)
