While on a recent work trip to Kenhardt, my boyfriend spotted these lovely old tins in the kitchen of the farmhouse they stayed in!
I fondly remember seeing similar ones as a child in my aunt's kitchen. They are the reason why Spaniels are sometimes referred to as 'Chocolate Box Dogs'. I guess at some stage certain cookie and chocolate manufacturers decided they will get a lot more attention by placing a few adorable puppies in front of a backdrop of something resembling the set of The Sound of Music, on the tins of their cookies or chocolates - well, it worked!
Other breeds on the 'Chocolate Box Dog' list?
- Scottish Terriers
- Collies
- German Shepard
- Schnauzer
Licks & Kisses!
