Zimtsterne (Cinnamon Stars)
Zimtsterne (pronounced "tsimt-shtern-uh"), also known as cinnamon stars, is a traditional Christmas cookie popular in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. “zimt” is cinnamon, and “sterne” is stars, in German. They are made almost entirely of ground nuts with no wheat flour – traditionally almonds but it is sometimes combined with hazelnuts. Believed to originate sometime around the 1600s, Zimtsterne were a food for royalty since cinnamon was a very expensive and rare spice in Europe that time and had to be imported.

Bought my husband a subscription - no regrets
"Bought him a subscription when it was just one type of box - so like the family one. We loved it! Now I see there’s a date night one for adults specifically and am very tempted to resubscribe for his next gift"
Still checking it out, but so far, so good.
"So far so good. We accidentally used the wrong seasoning packet on our first meal, lol, but it was a great learning experience. So far everything seems easy to follow. I may have more thoughts after a few more boxes."
The BEST Stay Home Date Night!

Best buy ever!
"We have gotten all the kits from each country and our family really enjoys them! They're educational, not only for the kids but for us adults as well. The recipes bring us together as we learn facts about different countries, cooking techniques, and trying new food."
Great Homeschooling Activity!
"It was such a great experience shopping for the ingredients together as a family and then coming home to cook it together! Such a great learning activity to add to homeschooling. My daughter is 4 and loved this whole experience! She got to learn about Greece too and then eat a dish we personally made. How fun is that!?"
