Buddy the Elf Spaghetti Is Back & Even Better This Year

The popular kit from Hello Fresh is back, but supplies are limited

If you’ve ever watched Elf, you know all about the four main elf food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup. And if you’ve ever wanted to eat a perfectly balanced meal (by North Pole standards, anyway) you’ll want to order one of these Buddy the Elf spaghetti boxes from HelloFresh, stat.

The meal kit subscription service recently announced these extra special holiday boxes, which include all the ingredients you need to make two servings of Buddy’s breakfast spaghetti, will be back this year. And while adults might take one look at this plate full of noodles, chocolate, candy pieces, and (of course) syrup and feel a cavity coming on, kids are pretty much guaranteed to love the idea—and anyway, what’s wrong with a little candy for breakfast during the holidays?

According to a press release from HelloFresh, each kit comes with “everything needed to make Buddy’s iconic dish, featuring Colavita spaghetti, maple syrup, chocolate syrup, marshmallows, chocolate nonpareil candies, chocolate frosted pastries, and more.” As a bonus, in honor of 2023 being the 20th Anniversary of the theater release of Elf, this year’s kit includes two elf aprons, two plates designating the four main elf food groups, and a plastic storage bag (with stickers) for leftovers.

What’s even better is that you don’t need to be a HelloFresh subscriber to get your hands on one of these Buddy the Elf Spaghetti kits. They’ll be available for one-off purchase on a first-come, first-served basis at HelloFreshElfSpaghetti.com. $30 will get you a kit with enough sweet fixings to make two servings, plus a step-by-step recipe card to help you make the dish at home. Quantities are limited, so you’ll probably want to act fast if you plan to get your soon-to-be-sticky hands on a box. They go on sale on Dec. 4 at 12:25 pm EST, with a limit of one kit per purchase.
