Seasonal Edition
Lil Gingerbread Lady
Lil Gingerbread Lady
Winter brings a bit of magic to the air near home. Just a mile down the road, Anna’s Pepparkakor bakes Sweden’s favorite gingerbread, filling the crisp Nordic breeze with warm, spiced scents that mingle with hints of chimney smoke.

- Safety: Never leave a candle unattended and keep it away from drafts, flammable objects, children, and pets.
- Optimal Burn Time: Burn for 1-4 hours at a time for best results.
