It&#8217;s deep-fried and often enjoyed with butter. You\u2019ll find this treat at the Christmas stalls and it&#8217;s worth sampling for its unique texture and design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rj\u00f3ma\u00eds<\/strong>: Icelandic soft-serve ice cream mixed with various toppings is a year-round favourite. Even in the colder months, you&#8217;ll find locals and visitors indulging in a cone. It might sound counterintuitive, but no visit to an Icelandic market would be complete without trying rj\u00f3ma\u00eds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hot Chocolate<\/strong>: This might not be unique to Iceland, but the chill of the Arctic air makes hot chocolate particularly comforting. Some stalls even offer a splash of Icelandic schnapps to give it an extra kick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pylsa<\/strong>: The Icelandic hot dog is a popular quick eat, made from a blend of lamb, pork, and beef. Served with a range of condiments like fried onions, raw onions, ketchup, mustard, and remoulade, it&#8217;s a must-try snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kleinur<\/strong>: These Icelandic doughnuts are twisted into a specific shape before being deep-fried and sugar-coated. They make for a sweet, satisfying snack as you browse the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gl\u00f6gg<\/strong>: This is the Icelandic version of mulled wine, typically made with red wine, spices, and sometimes raisins and almonds. It\u2019s a popular way to stay warm while exploring the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Smoked Lamb<\/strong>: Known locally as hangikj\u00f6t, this is smoked meat that is usually served as part of a main meal but can sometimes be found in sandwich form at the market. Its distinct smoky flavour makes it a unique culinary experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bolludagur Cream Buns<\/strong>: These are sweet, fluffy buns filled with cream and jam, then topped with chocolate glaze. Traditionally eaten on Bolludagur, or &#8216;Bun Day,&#8217; they are sometimes available during the Christmas season as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Apple Cider<\/strong>: A warm cup of apple cider is another international favourite that makes an appearance at the Christmas markets in Reykjavik. Some stalls offer a local twist by adding Icelandic herbs or berries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>R\u00fagbrau\u00f0<\/strong>: This is a traditional Icelandic rye bread that is dense and dark, often served with butter or hangikj\u00f6t. You can find it pre-sliced at the market, and it serves as a hearty snack or accompaniment to a meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>K\u00f3kosbollur<\/strong>: These coconut-covered chocolate balls offer a sweet reprieve from the market\u2019s otherwise meat and fish-heavy options. They&#8217;re easy to eat on the go and are quite popular among children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sk\u00f3labollur<\/strong>: Another sweet treat is cream-filled choux pastry puffs, often topped with chocolate and sprinkled with coconut flakes. They&#8217;re a popular dessert in Iceland and can be found at various food stalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Icelandic Christmas Ale<\/strong>: This festive brew, known locally as J\u00f3la\u00f6l, is a mix of a non-alcoholic malt beverage called Maltextrakt and an orange fizzy drink called Appels\u00edn. While not traditionally a street food, it&#8217;s often available at Christmas stalls for a refreshing change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gifts and Shopping<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Icelandic Wool Products<\/strong>: Known for their quality and durability, Icelandic wool products like sweaters, hats, and mittens are a common find. Made from the fleece of Icelandic sheep, which have a unique dual-layered coat, these items provide excellent insulation against the cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Einst\u00f6k Beer<\/strong>: This Icelandic craft beer has gained a following for its unique flavours and high-quality ingredients, making it an excellent gift for beer enthusiasts. Vendors usually sell them in aesthetically pleasing gift packs, perfect for holiday gifting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Birch Syrup and Liquor<\/strong>: Sourced from Iceland\u2019s native birch forests, these products are popular for their unique, woody taste. They offer a taste of Iceland&#8217;s flora, whether in syrup form for culinary use or as liquor for a warm drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Volcanic Stone Sculptures<\/strong>: Local artists often work with Iceland&#8217;s abundant volcanic rocks to create sculptures. Ranging from small, portable items to larger pieces, these sculptures capture the island&#8217;s geological marvels in tangible form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Icelandic Chocolate<\/strong>: Produced locally, Icelandic chocolates often feature novel flavours, such as sea salt from the Westfjords or berries from the Icelandic wilderness. They&#8217;re a sweet way to bring a piece of Iceland back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Books on Icelandic Folklore and Sagas<\/strong>: Iceland has a rich literary tradition that dates back to the sagas. Books on Icelandic folklore, myths, and sagas make for a thoughtful gift that allows people to learn about the nation&#8217;s history and imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skincare Products<\/strong>: Due to the harsh climate, Iceland produces a range of skincare products made from natural, local ingredients such as seaweed, geothermal mud, and mineral-rich water. These items are designed to nourish and protect the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mug with the Northern Lights Design<\/strong>: A popular item, these mugs usually feature an intricate depiction of the Northern Lights. Not only functional but also decorative, they remind you of Iceland&#8217;s natural beauty every time you have a drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lava Salt<\/strong>: Harvested and processed in Iceland, this unique seasoning adds both flavour and a visual element to dishes. Often sold in stylish jars, it\u2019s a practical and attractive gift option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Icelandic Recipe Book<\/strong>: A recipe book can be a perfect gift for those who\u2019ve fallen in love with Icelandic cuisine. These often feature traditional dishes as well as modern interpretations, allowing one to recreate Icelandic meals at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Reusable Shopping Bags with Icelandic Designs<\/strong>: As an eco-friendly choice, these bags often feature designs inspired by Icelandic landscapes or culture. They&#8217;re practical, easy to carry, and make for a nice, casual gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Icelandic Candy<\/strong>: Licorice is particularly loved in Iceland, often found combined with chocolate in various sweet treats. An assortment of these treats, or a packet of the popular &#8216;Omnom&#8217; chocolate made in Reykjavik, would be an ideal gift for those with a sweet tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Viking-inspired Items<\/strong>: Given Iceland&#8217;s rich history, you can often find Viking-inspired crafts. These can make interesting and unique gifts, whether it&#8217;s a horn drinking vessel, a replica Viking sword, or jewellery featuring traditional symbols like the Vegv\u00edsir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Christmas Decorations<\/strong>: As with most Christmas markets, you&#8217;ll find a range of festive decorations. From traditional Icelandic Yule Lads figurines to handcrafted tree ornaments, these festive items can bring a touch of Icelandic Christmas to any home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Things to Do in Winter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For the most up-to-date information on winter activities and current events in the city, I recommend checking out Visit Reykjavik, the city&#8217;s official website, where you&#8217;ll find many reliable details to enhance your trip. This <a href=\"https:\/\/visitreykjavik.is\/hafnarfjordur-christmas-itinerary\">Christmas itinerary<\/a> is a great place to start. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Responsible Travel Tips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few tips on how we can travel more responsibly in Reykjavik at Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Renewable Energy<\/strong>: While staying in Reykjavik, opt for accommodations that use the country&#8217;s renewable energy resources. The city is powered largely by geothermal and hydroelectric energy, which are sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Reduce Food Waste<\/strong>: Be mindful of portion sizes when ordering food, particularly at the Christmas markets where tempting food stalls are abundant. To cut down on waste, try sharing dishes with your travel companions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ethical Consumption<\/strong>: Choose to purchase items made by local artisans at the Christmas markets in Iceland to support the local economy and reduce the environmental impact of shipping goods from overseas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sustainable Diets<\/strong>: Make a point to sample local food products, as importing goods can lead to a larger carbon footprint. Reykjavik is known for its fresh seafood and locally sourced lamb, both of which are sustainable choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sustainable Transport<\/strong>: Reykjavik is a compact city, and many of its key attractions are within walking distance of each other. Opt to walk or bike when possible or make use of the city&#8217;s efficient public transport system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Support Eco-Friendly Businesses<\/strong>: When dining or shopping, look for businesses that are committed to sustainability. Some restaurants in Reykjavik, for instance, pride themselves on using locally sourced, organic ingredients. Similarly, consider shopping at stores that sell products made from sustainable materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Participate in Clean-Up Activities<\/strong>: If you&#8217;re spending a bit more time in Reykjavik, you might wish to join local initiatives aimed at keeping the city clean and green. Some organisations arrange regular clean-up events, contributing to a healthier environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to leave a Reykjavik Xmas Market review, comment below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Recommendations are independently chosen based on personal travel experiences and extensive research.
