While the holidays are full of tasty traditions, one of our absolute favorites is counting down to Christmas with food-filled advent calendars. Each day leading up to December 25, we open a little door or drawer to reveal a miniature bite, giving us something to savor before the main holiday event.

The practice started back in the 1950s, when Cadbury tucked little pieces of chocolate behind the doors of its advent calendar. Today, the tradition has evolved to include many other treats: salty popcorn, fruity jams, spirited sips, flaming hot sauce — there’s an advent calendar for every taste! And December 1 is coming up faster than you think, so now’s the time to order your own food-themed Christmas counter.

RELATED: The Best Kitchen Finds to Buy From Amazon’s Holiday Gift Guide Before They Sell Out 

To help you find the tastiest calendars to count down the holiday season, we’ve rounded up 21 delicious, flavor-packed options that you can buy online. From beautifully decorated sweet treats and savory snacks to festive beverage options, keep reading to shop them all.
