either milk, dark, white, vegan nutmilk or caramel chocolates. The experts at Hotel Chocolat never use ready-made moulds, instead creating enchanting custom moulds for its reindeers, trees and snowmen among others, as well as a special, larger treat for Christmas Eve.
For the youngsters, Hotel Chocolat has crafted its milk chocolate into playful penguins, which are hidden behind every door for their child-sized up to snow good calendar. Then you have the fancier options – the grand advent calendar, the advent calendar for two and the everything calendar – which have a higher price point but offer something a little more sweet and swanky – and boozy, too.
Each of the calendars opens like a book, which makes finding your chocolate each morning even more ceremonious and sets them apart from other advent calendars we have seen this year.
