I love the idea of celebrating Christmas in July because it’s my absolute favourite holiday. However, I don’t always want to turn on my oven on a hot day so I created this roundup. Scroll down for easy no bake desserts to make your Christmas in July extra special without heating up your house!
All of these desserts are super easy to make and are either festively decorated or have traditional Christmas flavours or colours! Most of these treats are made in under 30 minutes and then just need to set in the fridge. Have a look through and bring the flavours of Christmas to your friends and family on July 25.
As these are no bake desserts, you can also easily get the kids involved. An easy and fun way to pass time on the days it’s too hot to go outside. Most of these treats can be made in advance so there’s also no pressure to make them the day of. My son loves helping me in the kitchen so I love desserts that he can do everything by himself safely.
No bake desserts are perfect for any hot weather as you don’t need to turn on your oven. Once that oven is on, it needs to release the heat so it can heat up your house quite significantly. All of the desserts below may require the stovetop or microwave but these will not heat your house like the oven. Perfect for Christmas in July when it’s typically going to be quite hot, at least in the northern hemisphere.
What’s Christmas in July
Celebrated on July 25, Christmas in July is just what it sounds. A mini second Christmas celebration and an excuse to eat all the Christmas treats! As far as I know, this is just an excuse for a get together in the summer and people do not exchange gifts. For me, it’s the perfect excuse to break out the seasonal treats and movies, like cheesy Hallmark movies or classics like Home Alone. There is never a bad time to watch Home Alone!
I have also seen that it can be celebrated in the southern hemisphere as this is their winter. The idea being they can celebrate Christmas with the more traditional cozy weather.
