Make it a Kāpiti Christmas

Make Christmas deliciously local with a visit to the Kāpiti Artisan Pantry, open at Coastlands through to December.

Perfect for stocking fillers, foodie hampers, or a sneaky festive treat for yourself.

Festive treats don't get much cuter than this! That Little Cake Shop has whipped up a delightful Christmas range of handcrafted goodies, available online or as a hand-picked selection at the Kāpiti Artisan Pantry. Perfect for gifting, or indulging in a sweet little treat yourself.

A beloved local favourite, Olde Beach Bakery is always serving up tasty treats, and this year they've added something new for the festive season: Christmas Cookie Buckets. Available in Chocolate Chip and Dark Chocolate Nut, they're ideal for gifting to friends or neighbours. Warning: stopping at just one cookie may prove impossible!

Say hello to San Nicolás, Duncan's festive spiced ale and the alter ego of Apostle Hot Sauce's Saint Nicholas Cranberry & Chilli Jam. Bursting with cherry, cranberry, orange, and a dash of festive spice, all wrapped up in a rich, boozy malt base. A proper holiday banger for anyone who loves a seasonal tipple with a twist.

With all the joy of the Christmas season jammed into every bean, Dark Horse Coffee's Blitzen Christmas Blend is back! Rich and full-bodied, it's reminiscent of fruit cake in every sip. Here for a good time, not a long time - once it dashes away, it's gone!

The holiday legend returns! Imagination’s Christmas Pudding Gin is a rich, nostalgic gin inspired by real homemade pudding: warm spice, dried fruits, citrus peel. Don’t wait on this one. Just like a homemade Christmas pud, it’s the perfect bring-along for every party, BBQ, and cheeky December gathering. Limited, loved, and legendary -grab yours before it vanishes.
