Krampusz Éjszakán

(Krampus Night)

Depictions of Krampusz alongside St. Mikulás in Hungary (Magyaroszag) for December 5th.

Examples of Presents on December 6th for well behaved children from St. Mikulás can typically include fresh fruit, nuts and candies:

Some popular candies/chocolates in Hungary, include Szaloncukor (which can include fillings of coffee cream, rum jelly, marzipan, etc), Balaton (wafer candy), Sport (rum chocolate), Duna Kavics (candy covered peanuts), etc.

Some parents may go a step further to include toys and clothes as gifts. Gifts are delivered on a doorstep usually in a stocking or shoe, but not always. It’ll depend on what parents prefer.

Many Hungarian parents may favor gift giving on St. Mikulás Day (or alternatively/additionally Christmas Eve) over doing so on Christmas Day out of religious respect and tradition.

Szaloncukor is also a popular treat typically hung from the Christmas Tree.
