From generation to generation, the Toy Show remains one of the most beloved events in the Christmas calendar.

Busting out the fresh Christmas pjs, lighting the fire and promising yourself you’ll stay awake til the very end – there’s nothing like it. And a crucial element in staying awake is the fuel, which is why you need to ensure your snack pile is fully stacked. These days, the hard part is done for you and there are companies all over the country who specialise in preparing treat boxes for Toy Show night. The big event is just around the corner (Friday 25th) and if you’re looking to order your supplies now, we’ve rounded up 8 places to do just that:

Sweet Boutique

Sweet Boutique have been making their special Toy Show boxes for 11 years, so they know the suss! Their individual boxes will set you back €10, with a family box available too for €40. Order HERE.

Sinead’s Cakes and Bakes, Sligo

Cupcakes, rocky roads and – the most important thing, in my opinion – hot chocolate bombs. You can’t watch the Toy Show without a mug of hocho, after all.
