Crabtree & Evelyn held its Christmas Preview Day from 21st to 25th November which offered a multitude of guft choices with special privileges and incentives exclusively for its VIP Card Members. Some of the sets (e.g. the set of 12 mini hand therapy sampler) have already been sold out at their flagship store at Pavilion where Crabtree had members of the media over this morning for a preview.
Stepping into the Crabtree Flagship Store is like being enveloped in a very festive atmosphere. Everywhere you look. there are colourful Christmas sets for men, women and kids are not left out either with a very beautiful Gingerbread Men Tin. I can’t possibly cover everything that Crabtree has to offer this holiday season so I will begin with their Festive Food Collection which looks too good to eat!
Musical Tin with Jelly Babies 300g/RM80
More than just a gorgeous time which contains jelly babies, this one is a musical tin. Just wind up the knob on the bottom of the tin and you can listen to “We Wish You A Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year” as you chomp on your jelly babies. Definitely a gift for the young and young-at-heart!
Gingerbread Men 200g/RM65
Not many retailers carry gingerbread men but you can find them at Crabtree & Evelyn. The tin is a keeper long after you have devoured the gingerbread men (it’d take me weeks to finish them simply because they look too good to eat!).
Festive Bauble with Fudge 150g/RM65
When it comes to packaging, Crabtree & Evelyn wins hands-down because you wouldn’t ever want to throw the containers away. This bauble can be used as decoration for your Christmas tree and if you don’t have one, just hang it somewhere in your room.
