Christmas Cheer II: The Zucker Hut
We're going to my parents' house tomorrow to put up the Christmas tree, so I went out in search of a German zucker hut ("sugar hat") to make things more festive. I thought they'd have some at Hansa Import Haus (I'd seen them there before), but no luck.
What is a zucker hut, you ask? And what do I do with it? Well, this informative video should explain:
(Incidentally, they do have lots of fantastic gifts at Hansa Haus, including marzipan pigs, Schlenkerla smoked beer, whiskey beans, salty licorice, bier steins, and a small selection of German board games and crossword puzzles.)

Christine, a million times thank you! I never knew this placed existed. I crave Domino Steine every Christmas, and used to be able to purchase from World Market (which hasn't carried them in a number of years). And unless I'm just really ignorant, have not been able to locate them locally.
Cannot wait to bring some for my holiday adventures! :) Thanks!
Oh, I'm glad! Please go shop at Hansa as often as possible. They've got lots of sweets, as well as the best beer selection in town.
