Traditional Christmas crackers, around since the 1840’s, were pulled — in the manner of a wishbone and filled with goodies from candy to small trinkets.

Last year, Jo Malone provided their own spin on a Christmas cracker, filling their trademark eggshell and black wrapping with mini versions of some of their own lovely treats: lime basil mandarin cologne, blackberry and bay body wash and nectarine blossom and honey body creme.  The whole lovely package sells for $45 and while it is not cheap, it is a lovely gift for someone you truly adore.

This is the thing.  Last year, Jo Malone ran out of these Christmas crackers waaaay before Christmas. So if you’d like one (or 2 or 3) then grab them early.  It’s not just hype. They won’t last.
