Chocolate Santa in China
A small Belgium Chocolate Workshop has opened in my neighbourhood. As it’s almost Christmas we bought a couple of Santa Clauses as a gift to spread some more western ideology.
The real news is though that they also sell the Chocolate version of Sinterklaas (Saint Nicholas), a person who actually really existed and whose birthday is celebrated the 5th/6th of December. In Holland the guy is more popular than Santa.
I guess it’s the first version of Sinterklaas in Shanghai, maybe even in China. I tried this years Sinterklaas and he tasted good.
That’s why Santa is in the picture, I have to wait a few more days before he is ready to be eaten.
This post sounds like a plug and I guess it is. The same shop has also some branches in Belgium but I just give the Shanghai address.
