With the media reporting the negative impact of “glitter-fied” reindeer food on other wildlife, we decided to ensure that Jolly Festive’s version could be enjoyed by any inhabitants of your garden. As such, we have followed RSPCA guidelines to ensure that this reindeer food can be spread guilt-free! Check out the recipe below!
Plus, in true Jolly Festive style, there’s a free, printable reindeer food label to go with it. Along with an original poem too; ready to be read out loud on Christmas Eve!
And if you decide that you don’t want it to be a Christmas Eve box surprise, then making this reindeer food with the kids is the perfect activity for a rainy Sunday afternoon.
It would even make a great gift for your kids to give to their friends; after all, we want to make sure Rudolph gets enough food to fuel him for the whole night!
