Sweet of the Week: Kevin's Sweet Challenge

This week's edition of Sweet of the Week takes us all the way across the pond to Minneapolis, Minnesota. In just a few days our intern, Kevin will be leaving our family at Rose & Co Estates to make his journey home to Minneapolis for the holidays. In the States, Kevin plays Collegiate American Football, and listen to this... he needs to gain 20 kgs before next season. Kevin recently has gone under oath at Rose & Co Estates, stating " he will not under any circumstance deny a sweet during the holiday." We put his words to a test in the office by challenging him to eat a whole package of biscuits.. not only did he complete the challenge, but in addition a Subway foot-long sandwich. As we continue to support Kevin in his holiday sweet challenge, we thought it would be fun to hear what you                  would eat, “If you had to gain 20 kg's by                             eating just sweets over the holidays?”

Must Have Holiday Sweets from Minnesota

1. The S'more: Minnesota is the next closest thing to the north-pole in the winter. Some of my favourite ways to celebrate the holidays with family and friends is by ice skating, sledding, a good old fashion snowball fight, and warming up around the fire while roasting s'mores. If you never have had a s'more, you are missing out! My recommendation if you are not scared of a few extra calories, try a deep fried s'more, you won't regret it!

2.  Santa's Christmas Cookies: Ever since I was little one of my favourite Christmas traditions is to sneak down in the middle of night to the Christmas tree and eat a few of the cookies my grandmother sets out for Santa... hopefully this won’t be the year my Grandma catches me!

 Happy Holidays From Minnesota!                    -Kevin
