Fly by Jing’s Chili Sauce Advent Calendar Is the Ultimate Way to Savor the Holiday Season
With the holiday season fast approaching, as a shopping writer, I find myself more attuned than ever. Everywhere I look, from West Elm’s paper Christmas ornaments to LEGO’s Christmas tree building set, holiday products are making their appearance — and honestly, I’m not complaining. I love the holidays, and the anticipation that builds as we count down excites me. Naturally, I’m all about trying everything the season has to offer — especially advent calendars.
Advent calendars are a wonderful way to heighten excitement, and the best part? You don’t have to wait until a specific holiday to enjoy them. You can start counting down to anything (even if it’s just the weekend, it still brings you closer to the holidays!). Personally, I’m a fan of food- and beverage-themed advent calendars, and after tasting Fly by Jing’s Sweet and Spicy noodles for our sister site, I knew I had to try their Winter in Sichuan Advent Calendar for myself.
What Is Fly by Jing’s Winter in Sichuan Advent Calendar?
If you’re not familiar with Fly By Jing, let me fill you in. Since its launch in 2018, the brand has made a name for itself with a lineup of spices, sauces, and toppings inspired by founder Jing Gao’s hometown of Chengdu, China. Its high-quality ingredients and flavorful add-ons can effortlessly elevate your everyday meals. Trust me — we’ve tried everything from the versatile Sichuan Chili Crisp to their savory hot pot base, and they never disappoint.
Now, with the Winter in Sichuan Advent Calendar, you can experience 12 two-ounce flavor surprises, all packaged in an adorable gift box. Inside, you’ll find the brand’s most popular chili sauces alongside exciting new releases that haven’t been shared with anyone yet.
Why I Love Fly by Jing’s Winter in Sichuan Advent Calendar
While I won’t spoil the surprise of the 12 flavors inside, I can tell you that if you love bold sauces and flavorful foods, this advent calendar will be a delightful addition to your collection. Unlike your typical candy-filled advent calendars, this one is truly unique and beautifully packaged — making it perfect for gifting right away (no wrapping needed!). Each box is unique, with different sauces for each day, ensuring that every day’s experience is special. Plus, it’s limited-edition, with only 1,500 made by Fly By Jing, so it’s definitely one of those items you’ll want to snag sooner rather than later.
As for what’s inside, I can share that it features three new chili sauces and spice blend recipes, along with one discontinued sauce, promising a flavor journey that will excite your taste buds. Each sauce is fantastic for drizzling over noodles or tofu or adding rich flavor to any dish. Here’s a hint: The red and green Sichuan peppercorn is absolutely delicious, and the BBQ spice rub tasted amazing on my chicken. Okay, I’ll stop gushing!
