Day 24 Of Stocking Stuffers
Are you a chocolate and sweets fiend like I am? That’s why today’s stocking stuffer is about the two things that I love.
If you’re looking for chocolate, it’s really easy to get it all over the place. Instead of going to a franchise, I thought I would tell you about families in San Jose who love chocolate as much as we do.
Schurra’s
Schurra’s has been a chocolate lovers dream since 1912. This family owned business is a San Jose, California favorite. For the holidays, my favorite is the milk chocolate Christmas stocking that is filled with foiled wrapped chocolate and a candy cane for color.
What if milk chocolate is not what your taste buds are craving? Schurra’s also does dried fruit, truffles, and peppermint bark.
Schurra’s is located on the El Camino Real at:
840 The Alameda, San Jose California 95126
Holland Pastry Shop
Have you ever eating your initial in chocolate? It’s a Dutch favorite to give people chocolates during the day that they celebrate Sinterklaas. The stores owner has told me that it’s best to order ahead of time because Sinterklaas is the first week of December.
If your unable to get the initials that you need in chocolate, don’t worry. There are other great treats to choose from. Holland Pastry Shop has the largest selection of licorice that I have ever seen.
Last but not least, the shop has these cute Saint Nicholas cookies that are served each year on Sinterklaas. I was able to try one and they are actually very good. Just make sure that you stay away from the ones that are made for babies. They are absolutely like teething cookies.
Holland Pastry And Gift is located at 524 S. Bascom Avenue, San Jose, CA 95128
