Top 3 picks - December 2024

How has Christmas come by so quickly? In three weeks, it will be the usual family fare: you have to defend your eating choices, tell your mildly deaf great aunt that you’re not a humanoid species from Star Trek and that yes, you do have energy for ordinary activities, and it’s just that you’re trying to change your diet. So, what are our top Christmas picks to keep you chirpy over the festive season?
 
1. Aren’t you bored of Christmas trees with tinsel and reflective glass baubles, or candles that risk lighting the needles and setting your home ablaze? We are too. And we love these novel Christmas baubles. Mini-cakes free from animal products from master cake-makers, Sponge.co.uk. So there’s genuine happiness, rather than slight apprehension, as you see what surprises lurk on the Christmas tree. 
 
2. So, you’re full. But you still want something sweet. Maybe something alcoholic to send you off into a sweet post-Christmas food coma, so you can sleep through Scrabble or Who Wants to be a Millionaire? But vegan Baileys has been discontinued. Fear not. Amarula have perfected a vegan cream liqueur with a coconut base rather than cream. 
 
3. And what to wear? You’ve told grandma you’d rather not have another Christmas sweater, which you’ve been able to justify on grounds other than good taste, but you still want something Christmasy. If you’re looking for something a bit tongue-in-cheek, then how about Vegan Outfitters’ cotton Christmas sweater: “Vegans – Ruining Family Gatherings”. It’s perfect for you.

Merry Christmas!
