With very good reason, most of us will already be getting excited for Christmas. The festive season is a time for laughter, memory-making and time spent with loved ones – and this year, more than ever, we’re needing all three in abundance. Whether you’re enjoying the company of your support bubble or coming together with friends and family far and wide in a virtual soiree, bring the festive cheer with drinks and much-loved snacks like KP Nuts.
Here, our fashion and beauty teams share what they’re most excited about this coming Christmas season and how they’ll be enjoying their favourite KP Nuts flavours.
Sophie Henderson, Senior Fashion Market Editor
After almost a year separated from loved ones, I’m hoping that this festive season, we’ll be making up for lost time. As a new(ish) homeowner, the joy of hosting isn’t lost on me and nibbles are always a big deal in our family. Nothing says Christmas like a glass of mulled wine accompanied by some KP Nuts – Honey Roasted Peanuts are my go-to. When it comes to gifting, treats in pretty reusable tins like the colourful options from KP Nuts, recipes that we can do together over Zoom and interior buys that spark joy are high on my shopping list. For myself? Coffee essentials please, Santa.

If life in lockdown taught me anything, it’s that it’s the little things that count. That’s why my wish list and gifting ideas this Christmas are centred on feelgood comfort: cosy-chic pyjamas, a new scented candle, luxury bubble bath, and festive treats like KP Nuts that the whole family can enjoy. Christmas for me has always been a bit of a whirlwind, but this year, I’ll be embracing a more low-maintenance approach – daily strolls in snuggly knitwear, immersing myself in a good book, and re-watching The Holiday with a festive tipple and some KP Dry Roasted Nuts in hand (a firm favourite of ours).

This time of year is all about indulging, and nothing feels more indulgent right now than great company. So, I’ll be hosting plenty of virtual gatherings, dressed to go out-out (even if I’m not leaving the house), with plenty of cocktails and snacks. I love to serve things that are true classics, like KP’s Original Salted Peanuts, which really can’t be beaten. Whether or not I actually manage to host a ‘party’ IRL this season remains to be seen. But if not, there is a bright side: no need to share the snacks!
Make It A Magic Christmas
Did we ever need Christmas more than this year? Magic Radio has always loved the festive season and, this year, they will be going 100% Christmas with KP Nuts, starting early and playing back-to-back festive tracks every day throughout the whole of December!
So, whether you’re a Last Christmas heartbreak kind of person, or more into Fairytale Of New York swagger, there’ll be something to sing along to.
