My 2024 Gluten-Free Advent Choices!
My 2024 Gluten-Free Advent Calendar Choices!
The holiday season is here, and that means it's time to enjoy the fun of advent calendars! As a celiac living in Canada and following a gluten-free lifestyle, I'm excited to share my picks for 2024's gluten-free advent calendars. These are just a few of the options I found, and they're perfect for adding a little holiday magic while staying safe.
Reese's Advent Calendar
I picked up this Reese's Advent Calendar at Save-On-Foods. As a huge fan of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, I was thrilled to find this gluten-free treat. The adorable packaging adds a festive touch, making it even more special.

In Canada, food labeling laws require clear identification of gluten-containing ingredients like barley, rye, oats, and wheat (BROW). The ingredient list for this calendar checks out, making it a safe and delicious choice for anyone with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Lampoon's Christmas Vacation Jelly Advent Calendar
For variety, I added the Jelly of the Month 12-Day Advent Calendar from Canadian Tire to my collection this year. It's a fun choice with jellies made in France and even comes with a handy spreader knife. The design on the packaging is inspired by National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, one of my favorite holiday movies, which adds a nostalgic touch.
The ingredient list looks fantastic, featuring plenty of fruit alongside some sugar. I'm already looking forward to December 13, 2024, when I'll try the first jelly on gluten-free toast, scones, or crackers.
24-Day Jigsaw Puzzle Advent Calendar
Last but not least, I'm reusing last year's 24-Day Jigsaw Puzzle Advent Calendar from Amazon Canada. It was a hit with my family, and I'm excited to enjoy it again this year. This calendar offers a unique and interactive experience, perfect for quality time during the holidays.
