Santa Hat Pet Favors

London based pastry maker, Tom Smith, invented the celebration cracker after a trip to France where he was inspired by their bonbon treats. When he returned to London he tried selling the paper wrapped sugared almonds himself with little success. That is until inspiration struck one night as he sat listening to the snaps and pops of his fireplace. What if he could make the treats crackle like the fire when opened? Little did he know that this thought would be the beginning of a timeless tradition. Crackers evolved from treats to notes, and finally to the trinket-filled, paper wrapped, popping cardboard tubes we know today.

Now, however, you can bring your pet in on the fun. This individual 12-inch long cracker contains a single pet toy trinket. Each of the cracker’s three segments is wrapped in classic Caspari paper and separated by a bow. Grab the end segments and pull apart to open the center section with a “bang” and reveal the prize inside.
