If you’ve ever pulled a Christmas cracker and wondered how the tradition could be improved then we have the answer for you.
Two words: cheese, crackers. That’s right, instead of a pack of tiny screwdrivers, this year you can crack open a gift of savoury goodness.
Courtesy of food blogger Annem Hobson from So Wrong It’s Nom – who revolutionised the game with her sell-out cheese advent calendar – you can now enjoy the stuff inside a cracker for the first time ever.
The Cheese Cracker will be available nationwide from Sainsbury’s, Ocado and ASDA, for the absolute bargain price of just £3.
Cheese lovers will be treated to two flavours – Ilchester Cheddar Cheese made in the West Country’s Mendip Hills and Ilchester Red Leicester – with a smooth and slightly nutty taste.
Also included inside the cracker is one personal-sized jar of Tiptree Tomato Chutney and five mini oatcakes.
And what’s a Christmas cracker without a party hat and a joke? Not a very good one. So of course So Wrong It’s Nom is packing a few of their cheesiest jibes.
Emma Garvey, Cheese Buyer for Sainsbury’s, said: ‘We’re always looking for distinctive products to offer our customers, especially at Christmas when people are on the lookout for something new and special.
‘We’re excited to be introducing the Cheese Cracker this year, to cater to cheese aficionados nationwide.
‘The cracker makes for the perfect addition to a festive feast and we can’t wait to hear the response from our customers.’
Clearly they know their audience as the Cheese Advent Calendar went down a treat in previous years.
The Cheese Advent Calendar costs £8-£10 (dependent on retailer) for 24 pieces of individually wrapped cheese, with seven varieties available including a limited-edition surprise cheese.
Those who can’t wait to get their hands on the cracker can purchase it in Sainsbury’s supermarkets on December 4th, as well as at Asda and Ocado.
