From Wish to Reality: The Limited Bronze PEZ Nutcracker Joins the PEZ Collection

Here we go PEZ PALZ!

The next-to-last Online Exclusive dispenser of the, 

 year has just dropped! 

 

And as promised in our last update, 

PEZ delivers another festive Christmas release.

 The PEZ Nutcracker 

has always held a 

solid spot in our personal Top 3 

Christmas dispensers.

 

Collectors have long hoped PEZ would give

 the classic Nutcracker a new, 

high-end makeover, and now that wish 

has finally come true in the best possible way.

 

Today, we’re getting the Nutcracker in a brand-new look!

No, not gold,  

(we already have the golden Santa from this

 year’s European Advent Calendar, 

and possibly the New Year’s Presenter Girl coming too). 

 

Instead, PEZ came up with something 

equally brilliant for the Nutcracker.

 

Following the gorgeous Bronze PEZ Snowman from 2023, 

the Nutcracker now joins the lineup in 

a limited, Online-Only Bronze edition!

 The blister cards are beautifully designed,

 putting the Nutcracker front and center,

 and the red stem adds the perfect festive touch.

 We also know that the U.S. and European versions 

are identical except for the blister card 

artwork and, of course, the candy assortments.

 Finally, our Snowman no longer has to stand alone in 

bronze glory on our collector shelves!

 With the Nutcracker, the last Christmas dispenser 

of 2025 has officially dropped, 

and naturally, we’ve already updated our

2025 PEZ Christmas Pictorial. 

 

The Christmas sleigh is loaded with PEZ, 

and the reindeer are already racing toward

 the final Online Exclusive of the year. 

You know the one, the annual  

New Year’s dispenser, 

now a beloved tradition and the grand finale of every PEZ year.

But enough talking, let’s get you to the star of the moment.

Here you can grab the stunning 

Bronze Nutcracker for your collection:

Now available! Europe, Meet Your New Bronze PEZ Nutcracker!

After PEZ Candy USA surprised our

American collectors with the 

brand-new Bronze Nutcracker yesterday,

Europe’s PEZ fans can now get excited too, 

the wait is over! 

Now available in Europe too, the new Bronze PEZ Nutkracker.

The shiny Bronze Nutcracker has officially

 marched into the PEZ International online 

shop and is ready to join your collection.

PEZ International and PEZ Candy USA 

chose different blister card designs, 

but the new Nutcracker still steals the spotlight on both.

Following the Bronze Snowman released 

in 2023, this Nutcracker becomes

 the second-ever PEZ dispenser to receive 

the magical bronze treatment.

And who knows? 

Maybe the Bronze Series will keep growing… 

we certainly wouldn’t mind a few more festive 

surprises under the PEZ Christmas tree!

First Look! Here is the new 2023 PEZ Advent Calendar...

Last week we were able to tell you a little bit 

about this year's 

PEZ Advent Calendar, 

now the time has come that we can finally 

give you a first look at the new PEZ Advent Calendar.

It's great that the trading house Huber-Kölle and PEZ 

have joined forces again this year and will be 

releasing an new Advent Calendar in autumn.

The lovely new cover of this year's Advent Calendar, 

in green, takes us into the Christmassy decorated living room, 

where of course Santa Claus and this year the 

elf can be found.

Picture from Handelshaus Huber-Kölle, Danke :)

As already announced, 

the elf plays the most important part in the 

Advent Calendar this year, as it will be available in 

Europe for the first time.

Santa, the Snowman, the Nutcracker and the new Reindeer 

can also be found behind one of the 24 windows.

Even if we would have wished for a crystal dispenser again,

 top on our list, for sure  the Nutcracker 

(please PEZ you have to produce it in Crystal next year), 

this year's Advent Calendar should not be missing

 in any PEZ collection or PEZ room.

For all those who have not yet bought the 2022 advent calendar 

with the crystal polar bear, 

you still have the opportunity to order it from PEZ Online (here) 

When it's gone, it's gone and won't come again, 

so take this chance.

Happy Collecting!

Now available! The new 2023 PEZ Advent Calendar is here! (with Video)...

 What a great surprise!

Summer isn't even officially over yet, 

and PEZ is already offering the new 

Advent Calendar online. (here)

(Europe only)

The lovely new cover of this year's Advent Calendar,

in green, takes us into the Christmassy decorated living room,

where of course Santa Claus and this year the

Elf can be found.

The Elf plays the most important part in the

Advent Calendar this year, as he is available in

Europe for the first time, and as an exlusive Advent Calendar only

The only difference about the Elf from the USA is the 

PEZ Play Code that is printed on the stem.

Santa, the Snowman, the Nutcracker and the 

new Reindeer all with the PEZ Play Code on the stem, 

can also be found behind one of the 24 windows.

We were so happy with the Advent Calendars 

from the past two years, as there was an 

exclusive crystal dispenser in them.

 This year, unfortunately, it was "only" the Elf, but nevertheless, 

this year's Advent Calendar has once again turned 

out really great and cute in appearance.

We learned that the Advent calendar at PEZ requires 

a lot of work and time, 

which is why PEZ is considering not publishing it next year.

That would really make us sad!

We hope that PEZ will choose a different path, 

we love the Advent Calendars and they have 

a very special place in our collections, 

so there must be more, especially since we all want 

a CRYSTAL NUTCRACKER so much!

Here you can get the new Advent calendar, 

let's show PEZ how much we all love it, 

and it can't be the last one we get.

Happy Collecting!
