I gave my mum a set of your pudding coins for Christmas – she cried and said she had never been given such a beautiful gift.
Celebrate a time-honoured tradition with our solid sterling silver Christmas pudding coins. It's a beautiful way to add a little magic and meaning to your festive table. These heirloom-quality tokens have delighted families across Australia for over 20 years, helping keep a charming custom alive.
For generations, coins were hidden in Christmas puddings to bring luck and prosperity to those who found them. It’s a joyful tradition that sparks laughter, careful chewing - and lasting memories. We recommend gently pressing the coins into your pudding just before serving (though baking them in also works). Afterwards, they can be exchanged for real money to make sure they return safely for next year - a tradition in itself!
This deluxe set includes 6 solid sterling silver coins, each etched with a different vintage-style Christmas illustration. They’re larger and sturdier than the old sixpences and threepences, making them easier to find (and more fun!). You can even assign special meanings to each coin for an extra layer of tradition.
Beautifully boxed and ready to gift, your set includes:
- 6 solid sterling silver Christmas pudding coins
- A quick and easy pudding recipe to make your own
- Our family’s delicious brandy sauce recipe
- Instructions and care guide
- A reusable box to store them safely each year

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Christmas pudding coins?
Christmas pudding coins are special tokens traditionally hidden inside a pudding before serving. Finding a coin in your slice is believed to bring good luck and wealth in the coming year. Our set features solid sterling silver coins etched with vintage Christmas illustrations, designed to revive and modernise this quirky tradition.
How do you use silver coins in a Christmas pudding?
We recommend pressing the coins into your pudding just before serving, so they're easy to find and safe to use. If you prefer, you can also bake or steam the coins into the pudding, as long as they're well cleaned and safely positioned. Many families exchange them for money at the table to ensure they're returned and reused every year.
Are these coins safe to use in food?
Yes. Unlike modern base metal coins, these are made from solid sterling silver, which is food-safe and has been used in dining for centuries. Just make sure the coins are cleaned before use and inserted carefully into the pudding. Full instructions are included with your set.
Also be sure to tell your guests that coins are included and that they should eat carefully. Never serve the coins to young children.
Can I reuse the Christmas pudding coins each year?
Absolutely. These heirloom-quality coins are designed to last for generations. To help keep the tradition going, you can 'buy back' the coins at the table each year so they’re safely returned for future use. Your set includes a reusable storage box and care instructions.
What do the coin designs mean?
Each of our coins features a different vintage Christmas illustration, none of which have set meanings. Some families choose to create their own fun interpretations or assign symbolic meanings to the designs as part of their Christmas tradition.
