The origins of the Advent calendar<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

For many people, the Advent calendar is a cherished childhood tradition. Every day in the month of December leading up to Christmas, children would enthusiastically open a small door or flap in their Advent calendar to reveal a little chocolate. Today, Advent calendars come in all shapes and sizes, but by far the most popular are those filled with chocolate. But where does this tradition come from? Let's take a look at the history of the chocolate advent calendar.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

The idea behind the chocolate Advent calendar is simple: every day leading up to Christmas, you eat a piece of chocolate. Originally, this was done with actual doors that opened to reveal a Christmas-related image or scene. Today, most Advent calendars have 24 windows, each containing a small piece of milk or dark chocolate.<\/p>\n

The origins of the Advent<\/a> date back to the 19th century in Germany. The first known Advent calendar was created by German Protestant pastor Johann Heinrich Wichern in 1851. He used a large blackboard to mark the days leading up to Christmas, and each day he moved a counter one space towards Christmas.<\/p>\n

The first known commercial Advent calendar was produced in 1908 by German confectioner Richard Sellner. His Advent calendars featured 24 small windows, behind each of which was a piece of candy or chocolate. Today, Advent calendars come in all shapes and sizes, and you can even find some that contain small toys or beauty products!<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n
