There’s no such thing as Christmas without a chocolatey treat or two, and Hotel Chocolat is one of the number one places I head every year to stock up on gifts. Whether I’m after a little stocking filler, something grand to add to the present pile, or an advent calendar (this one might be just for me), it’s one of my must-shop places for Christmas gifts. With the festive season rapidly approaching, I took a sneak peek at Hotel Chocolat’s Christmas offerings this year, and I’ve got four favourites that came straight home with me.
My top choices included a luxury advent calendar, two stocking stuffer-sized boxes, and some adorable Christmas crackers to go on my table setting this year – and I’m already counting down until December to enjoy them.

It might be a bit of a splurge, but it’s more than worth it in terms of both value and the sheer joy that it’s going to bring me opening up the doors each day.
There are 24 doors to open, and mind you these doors are not small. Each one is super generously sized and features things from all corners of Hotel Chocolat’s chocolate goodies. You’ll get chocolat slabs, individual filled chocolates, sachets of the brand�.
