    3 OTHER 'HANDY' GIFT SUGGESTIONS:







    CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEAS | SANTA CLAUS PRESENTS | XMAS GIFT SUGGESTIONS

    Antwerpse Handjes.


    Chocolate hands, a.k.a. 'Antwerpse Handjes!' (Dutch language)


    The 'ANTWERP HAND' as a sweet appeared in 1934. In that year the Association of Antwerp Confectioners, at the research of a typical biscuit, organized a competition. Because of its shape the winner was a tasteful little hand.


    In 1956 its production was severely regulated: only members of the Association were allowed, if permission was given, to bake the biscuit; its composition and its shape could not be altered. The first CHOCOLATE HANDS (dark chocolate with coffee taste, or milk chocolate with nut taste) were created in 1971. Another kind of chocolate hand was born in 1982: the one filled with a mixture of marzipan and "ELIXIR d'ANVERS" (developed by Goossens).

    You can ORDER those famous 'Chocolate Hands' at: Goossens





    Handsoap - wash your hands with hand soap. Handsoap - wash your hands with hand soap.

    'Wash your hands with hands!'

    Because these 'handy' handsoaps are hand-made,
    each set is slightly different with different hand-shapes & skin-ish colors.


    The soaps range from 1/2” to 2” tall. You will get at least 10 hands (at least = about 100 grams of soap).
    The soap is goat’s milk + vegetable glycerin & has a light scent.

    The HandSoap comes in a pretty bag:
    ready for gifting to a friend with dirty paws!!!

    More info + photos about the HANDSOAP™





    'More unique gift ideas with hands!'

    Tape measures with hands. Earrings with hands. Massage therapist flask with hands.

    You can find many more examples at: Kyle Design

    (For any of the 27 gadgets: you can choose between '1 hand' or '2 hands' decoration + 42 different colors!)

    Vitmain case with hands. Necklaces or glasses holder with hands. Decorative nightlight with hands.
