The Bonne Maman Advent Calendar Returns July 15 – Here's How to Reserve Yours

If you've been waiting for the return of the iconic Bonne Maman Advent Calendar, the countdown is almost over. Every year, this charming collection of 24 miniature fruit spreads, honey, and other gourmet surprises is our biggest-selling Advent calendar—and every year it disappears long before Christmas arrives. 

That's why, unlike the rest of our Christmas collections, Bonne Maman opens for pre-order much earlier: Tuesday, July 15. If you're hoping to enjoy one this holiday season, now is the time to join the reminder list below so you'll be among the first to know when reservations open.

So how does the pre-order work? 

When reservations open on July 15, you'll place and pay for your order just as you would with any other purchase. Your calendar(s) will then be reserved specifically for you and shipped once our annual shipment arrives from Europe, typically in late October. We ask for payment at the time of ordering because these calendars sell out every year. Pre-ordering allows us to order confidently from France while ensuring that the calendars are spoken for before they even arrive in Canada.

One of the things we love most about the Bonne Maman Advent Calendar is hearing from customers who make it part of their family's Christmas traditions. With 38 customer reviews—and every single one earning five stars—it's clear this calendar has become a holiday favourite across Canada. Customers tell us they look forward to discovering a new flavour each morning, sharing breakfast together during Advent, and even giving the calendar as an early Christmas gift to friends and family who appreciate quality food and a little everyday luxury.

And the fun doesn't end on Christmas morning. Those adorable little Bonne Maman glass jars have become almost as beloved as the jams inside. Customers reuse them as tiny vases, tea light holders, spice jars, craft storage, sewing notions containers, place card holders, miniature dessert dishes, and even wedding favours. We've seen so many creative ideas over the years that opening the calendar becomes just the beginning of its story.
