TEA THE SEASON: Pudgy Penguins Huddler Kent Is Brewing Christmas Cheer Around The Igloo With His Berry Merry Christmas Tea Sampler Featuring His Santa Hat Wearing Lil Pudgy!

While Halloween is still more than a month away, it’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas around the igloo!

This winter, Pudgy Penguin Kent DeFi CPA will be brewing up some holiday cheer around the huddle with his all new Berry Merry Christmas Tea Sampler gift boxes, featuring his Santa hat wearing Lil Pudgy!

“Finally using my Santa Hat @LilPudgys#15735 IP for a Christmas Gift Sampler,” he tweeted this morning. Bought this lil guy in Sept 2023, his time has come!!! @pudgypenguins lmk what you think I should price this at on  @amazon.”

 

Kent’s gift boxes will each come with four Christmas teas, a Pengu themed cold brew infuser, and a lil plushie that’s perfect for the most wonderful time of the year!

“I’ve been working with Pudgy Penguins IP for a while and wanted a holiday gift that felt fun instead of generic,” Kent told the Gazette. “Cold brew tea fit because it’s simple, giftable, and works year-round — not just another boxed cookie or cocoa kit. Pairing the tea with a small penguin plushie made the Berry Christmas Sampler feel like an actual gift.”

 

Spreading Christmas cheer with his Lil Pudgy has been a long time coming for Kent, who’s been dreaming of turning his cute little J-Peg into a product for nearly three years

 

“I picked up several penguins in 2023 because I was confident the team was going to build hard for decades, and I plan to make Pudgy Penguin IP core to my side-hustle income for many years to come,” he said. “With AI, it’s easier than ever to be a solo entrepreneur, so this holiday season was the first time the tea, the plush, and the packaging all lined up well enough to put a fun and attractive Christmas tea sampler using my Santa pudgy on Amazon.”

 

For Kent, building products around all things Pudgy was a no brainer. The brand is cute, the characters are recognizable, and the core team continues to work day in and day out to peng-liferate all things Pudgy Penguins!

“The character is instantly recognizable, family-friendly, and already lives in people’s feeds as short, cheerful GIFs,” he said. “That makes a small plush plus a simple product like tea feel natural instead of forced. It’s cute without being babyish, so it can sit on a kitchen counter or under a tree and still make sense.”

The Gazette will continue to follow Kent’s Berry Merry Christmas Tea Sampler this holiday season and will let you know when and how you can get the gift of Pengu for yourself or a loved one this Christmas. Stay tuned for updates!
