We have a whole smorgasbord of Christmas treats perfect for gifts, family gatherings and Christmas parties, all without adding to the workload, and supporting the SMC Foundation at the same time!

The Christmas cakes we all love are back in three sizes mini, regular and large, plus gluten-free and vegan options. Christmas cake tastes best when it’s made the old-fashioned way and they don’t get much more delicious than cakes from the much-loved family recipe by Pohutukawa Pantry.

Also back are the Christmas steamed puddings, complete with a Mason Cash ceramic basin in a range of colours.

For some decadent treats, try the stunning Christmas truffles, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread and delicious mince pies – the challenge will be not finishing them before Christmas comes!

And perfect for presents, whether for corporate gifts or a treat for granny, are the mini Christmas cakes. All the goodness of the larger version, just in miniature.

Everything is delivered beautifully wrapped and in a red gift box. By purchasing your Christmas goodies from SMC, you are supporting the St Margaret’s College Foundation, providing opportunity for current and future generations of girls.

Make sure you order your Christmas treats before Monday 11 November. Orders will be available to be collected from the Community Relations Office (the white villa at 28 Winchester Street) from 2-4 December.
