Back with even more whimsy and charm, you’ll be barking with joy (pun intended) at the beautifully packaged sweet treats, complete with the iconic and always lovable Williams Sonoma Dalmation. And let’s face it, the holidays are all about creating unforgettable moments with loved ones, and giving them a cozy experience from the seasonal collection of delectable offerings at Williams Sonoma is always a great idea! Nothing tastes better than a joyful treat enjoyed with the ones you care about the most. From stocking stuffers to little presents and gift baskets, here are our favorite holiday choices which you can get your hands on today.
It begins with Williams Sonoma’s signature Hot Chocolate!
Every day can be a cozy winter day with Williams Sonoma Hot Chocolate. Made with real chocolate shavings rather than the typical cocoa powder variety, Williams Sonoma Hot Chocolate is inspired by the velvety hot chocolate served at the renowned Angelina café in Paris. Discover a rich, intensely chocolaty flavor, smooth texture and exquisite aroma. To guarantee the silkiest sip, Williams Sonoma chose a couverture bittersweet chocolate from Guittard that melts quickly and consistently in hot milk. The result is a world-class beverage with a perfectly balanced chocolate flavor, perfect for gifting, and for enjoying with your nearest and dearest on a cool winter evening. There’s also a fall flavor offering too with the ideal hint of spice, catch it before it runs out. We’re also in love with the super dark chocolate rendition of Williams Sonoma dark chocolate, and there’s even a double dark chocolate version that we’ve been clamoring after for quite some time now.
Make room for the Original Holiday Peppermint Bark
We knew we’d be writing accolades about this as soon as we received news that the famous holiday Peppermint Bark is making a comeback at Williams Sonoma this year. The Original Peppermint Bark is the perfect way to celebrate the season. True to Williams Sonoma tradition, this nostalgic confection combines layers of Guittard’s velvety white chocolate and infused with triple distilled peppermint oil, all topped with a merry snowfall of crisp peppermint candy bits. While the original Peppermint Bark first made its debut in 1998, Williams Sonoma continues to pour their heart and soul into the process of perfecting it, by trying out more than 20 rounds till they settled on that one famous recipe that everyone’s obsessed with. Essentially spending 12 weeks every year, and more than 24 hours to make a batch of the Bark, the effort shows in every single flavorful bite! Not only is the signature flavor emblematic of the holiday season, the special, colorful packaging of red, white and silver tins is now even more whimsical with Williams Sonoma iconic holiday Dalmation!
Make sure you try all the different Peppermint Bark goodies!
Williams Sonoma truly knows how to wow us for the holiday season, as their famous Peppermint Bark range will satisfy every sweet tooth craving! For fans of a salty kick to their sweets, the Salted Peppermint Bark offers a sophisticated twist to the legendary original, and is presented in a keepsake tin that’s great for sharing with family and friends. To highlight the bark’s cool, refreshing sweetness, Williams Sonoma have added a sprinkling of Jacobsen’s pure flake sea salt for subtle savory flavor and delicate crunch. Underneath is the classic treat you know and love: layers of peppermint-infused Guittard semisweet chocolate and creamy white chocolate, topped with peppermint candy bits. For fans of the deep flavors of scintillating dark chocolate, the Dark Chocolate Peppermint Bark presents a luscious twist to the famous classic. For the most intense chocolate flavor, this exclusive confection showcases layers of
Guittard premium semisweet and bittersweet chocolates, infused with cool, refreshing oil of peppermint. Just like the classic bark, this irresistible holiday treat is topped with red-and-white peppermint candy bits – plus rich, chocolate cocoa nibs.
And who doesn’t love truffles? They make every gathering all the more fun! Williams Sonoma understands that more is indeed, merrier. This is why the Peppermint Bark Truffles are the perfect companion to your festive get-togethers and gift-giving. These irresistible truffles are handcrafted using the finest and most traditional European techniques. The creation of each confection begins with a velvety chocolate ganache highlighted with the cool, refreshing essence of peppermint. For a delectable finishing touch, the truffles are enrobed in Guittard dark chocolate or white chocolate, then topped with crushed peppermint candy. Also perfectly giftable are the Bark Cookies, as these all-natural chocolate wafers are scintillatingly enrobed in a generous layer of the finest Guittard white chocolate infused with pure peppermint oil. A sprinkling of peppermint candy adds to the cookies’ wonderful crunch.
We can switch between sweet and savory with no qualms whatsoever. We absolutely adore all things sweet but with a savory edge! This is why the Peppermint Bark Pretzels are a total gamechanger. The salty crunch of pretzels gives Williams Sonoma’s famous peppermint bark a whole new taste sensation. They’ve basically combined two of our favorite things into one addictive offering, the savory bite of pretzels with the velvety richness of peppermint bark. To make them, their dedicated chocolatiers bake batches of lightly salted mini pretzels in classic holiday shapes, then hand- dunk them in peppermint-infused dark chocolate or creamy white chocolate. A sprinkling of crushed peppermint candy adds a cool bite et voila, you’ve got the perfect holiday snack! We’re also quite obsessed with the decorative tin, which you can reuse for storing cookies and treats all throughout the year.
We’re yipping with joy at these playful Peppermint Bark offerings!
Bringing us even more joyous holiday treats, Williams Sonoma is also offering the Peppermint Bark Trio in their famous holiday Dalmation dog tin!
