Sunshine & Butterflies Christmas Selection Box

For those of you who prefer chocolatiers to put some effort into what they produce - even before they get into their development kitchen then I implore you to try this Christmas selection from Sunshine & Butterflies as they were outstanding!

Christmas at Santa’s House

These chocolate treats for children aren't cheap, but they're very enjoyable. The outer packaging is very engaging whilst the chocolates inside are wrapped perfectly for sharing or for keeping for yourself and enjoying as an occasional treat.

Divine Fairtrade Milk Chocolate Advent Calendar

The Divine milk chocolate advent calendar might taste a touch too sweet for me but I loved the message that it promotes - which is typically one missed at this time of year.

Chococo Christmas Crackle Tree

If you think deeply about this Christmas chocolate Christmas tree then you'll see how they've managed to combine so many different elements that should be appreciated: flavour, appearance and frivolity.

Lindt Chocolate Bear

Who loves Lindt chocolate? There'll certainly be a good number of people reading this blog that have bought and appreciated at least one of the Lindt golden chocolate figures. And there's a reason for it, despite being mass-produced they're not all that bad.

Hotel Chocolat Mince Pies

I really can't say that these chocolate mince pies from Hotel Chocolat are worth the money seeing as they're £7.50 for just 95g and they don't even taste all that spectacular. I do believe, however, that they do have far more suitable chocolate treats for Christmas if that's what you're looking for.

Montezuma’s Dark Chocolate Advent Calendar

Purely because there are so few dark chocolate advent calendars to choose from this has to be the best. One day I'd love fine chocolate makers to offer advent calendars, but I don't think we'll see that day any time soon.

Hotel Chocolat Christmas 2011

I just love the huge variety of Christmas chocolates that Hotel Chocolat offer each year. There's just so much imagination and every taste and need seems to be catered for. 2011 should be a good Christmas for chocolate lovers.

Chocolate Christmas Crackers

You just can't beat Hotel Chocolat when it comes to seasonal chocolate gifts and although these are more on the uninsperational end of what they do, they still serve the people that just want something simple from their favourite chocolate maker on their table when it comes to Christmas.

Beautiful Gift Boxes For Christmas

More of a feature on the gift boxes than the chocolate, but here are some chocolatiers that sell wonderful looking gift boxes full of chocolate.

Cadbury’s Wishes

If you like very sweet confectionery then you'll like this chocolate star from Cadbury's. Just don't buy it if you prefer your chocolate to have a more adult flavour.

Personalised Christmas Chocolates From Cocoapod

You don't have to buy all of your Christmas chocolates from the multinational companies this year. Try and buy something from the smaller companies as well.

Quality Street My Purple Bar

So I didn't actually expect a great deal better from this bar given that is is made by Nestle, but I didn't think it could be this devoid of flavour.

Mint Aero Christmas Tree

Of course Mint Aeros aren't the best chocolate you've ever tasted - probably nothing from Nestle would be. But they've got a market and they do a good job of supplying people with sweet confectionary.

Plush Fairtrade White Chocolate Petals

These Plush Fairtrade White Chocolate Petals were pretty good, but I would have liked more raspberry flavour. For something to munch on whilst watching a film they were perfect, but not something to concisously enjoy.

The Sleekster Classic Christmas Selection – Luxe from Hotel Chocolat

The The Sleekster Classic Christmas Selection is a very good selection for people that want to give something stylish at Christmas but don't want to break the bank.

Mulled Berry Chocolate From Berry Scrumptious

This bag of mulled berry chocolate slabs are nice and mellow, but they will never give you a massive jolt of flavour. They're more like a mellow backdrop to Christmas.

Sir Hans Sloane Christmas Chocolates

Luxury Chocolate Advent Calendars

There's nothing better than having luxury chocolate advent calendars if your a child, but adults love them.

Chocolate Advent Calendars For Couples

One thing I’ve noticed is that most chocolate advent calendars are for kids. Occassionally you’ll get some luxury ones, but vary rarely you’ll find chocolate advent calendars for couples. That is until Hotel Chocolat had the great idea to create one. I know its £22 which some people will...

Cadbury’s Christmas Chocolates For Children

When it comes to Christmas and stocking fillers there's nothing like one of those trays of Cadbury chocolates which could just slip into a large stocking filler. I just used to love those as a kid.

Hotel Chocolat Fruit & Nut 50% Milk Chocolate Wreath

One of the reasons I was looking forward to coming home from my foreign adventure was the knowledge that I had some lovely Hotel Chocolat goodies awaiting my return. One of those was this fantastically original Fruit & Nut Milk Chocolate Wreath. Now, they do these in this fruit & nut variety in...
