Chinese New Year, also known as the Lunar New Year of Spring Festival, is China’s most important holiday. The date changes every year because it is determined by the lunar calendar, beginning at the first new moon that falls between January and February. This year, Chinese New Year starts on February 12 and is a time for family gatherings and new beginnings.

While this year’s Chinese New Year celebrations may look a bit different, Sugarfina recently announced a limited-edition Lunar New Year collection to welcome the Year of the Ox. The stunning red and gold packaging features a variety of sweet treats that make the perfect gifts for others—and yourself!
