White Christmas is a classic Australian holiday season treat that’s traditionally made with a mixture of glacé fruit, desiccated coconut, sugar, and rice bubbles.
It’s often bound together by coconut oil but white chocolate can also be used for a tasty shortcut. Because it’s so easy to make, there are also plenty of wonderfully delicious white Christmas recipe variations. So here, we have rounded up 11 variations.

What does white Christmas taste like?
White Christmas is very sweet and usually has flavours of coconut and dried fruit, such as sultanas, glace cherries and cranberries. Depending on the white Christmas recipe, you may also taste hints of vanilla or white chocolate, or other ingredients such as pistachios.
Some of the variations in this recipe collection also include other flavours associated with Christmas. For example, the brandy in the White chocolate frozen Christmas pudding.
One of the reasons it makes such a great edible gift is that you can vary the ingredients or recipe based on different taste preferences. It’s also very easy to make, so if you’ve never tried it before you could start by making some. And because it’s traditionally a slice, you can even choose how small (or big) a piece you have.
