“The Sweetest Thing” This December at Powerscourt Hotel Resort & Spa

Not yet in the festive mood? Then take a trip to the award-winning Five Star Powerscourt Hotel Resort & Spa an Autograph Collection Hotel, and soak up the sugary excesses created by the incredible Culinary Pastry Team as they showcase their craft this Christmas.

Passing the Sugar Loaf on route, you and yours can tune into Christmas FM filling yourselves to the brim with festive cheer before meeting Mr. Reindeer! On arrival you will be in awe of the incredible Gingerbread Reindeer, especially created by Pavel and the pastry team (starting at 4am to assemble the creation). The Gingerbread Reindeer took an impressive 40 hours to make using 42 kilos of gingerbread and 25 kilos of royal icing, but keeping with the Christmas spirit, he comes directly from the Sugar Loaf Mountain, where he stays and feasts himself on its sugary goodness until he makes his grand entrance and resides in Powerscourt for the festive period.
