 Best chocolate advent calendars £15, Lindt, also available at Waitrose and Ocado Best children's chocolate advent calendar We like: perfect pre-Christmas gift for the kids Lindt stands astride the world of advent calendars like a chocolaty colossus: traditional enough to remind adults of their childhoods, but irresistible to modern kids. They don't cost much, either: this £15 teddy sits at the top of the range and a square gold teddy calendar with smaller chocs can be had for just £6.50. There's also a Lindor range (their round, melt-in-the-middle truffles), ranging from a £4 mini advent calendar to an £11 Lindor Gold calendar. And if you're a true fan, this year they're doing a Lindt-Lindor Christmas hamper for £50. But who's been good enough to deserve){kind=link}
How did we pick this year’s best chocolate advent calendars? Put it this way, never have the words ‘tried and tested’ been more accurate
Not that long ago, there would have been no point drawing up a guide to the best chocolate advent calendars, since that was the only kind. But these days there are beauty advent calendars, beer and wine advent calendars, book, toy and candle advent calendars and food advent calendars of every kind imaginable, from cheese to marshmallows. It’s almost too much choice. What if next door are opening a far better advent calendar than you?
We can’t let that happen. That’s why we’ve dedicated November to finding you the best chocolate advent calendars of 2022. Whether you’re desperate to find a vegan advent calendar stocked with the finest single-estate artisanal chocolates, or you just want to see what Lindt, Cadbury and Hotel Chocolat are offering this year, here’s where you’ll find the answers. You may say that eating nothing but advent chocolates for a month is unhealthy. We can live with that danger, as long as it keeps our readers informed.
(By the way, if you’re getting ready for Christmas you may want to read our guides to the best artificial Christmas trees, the best real Christmas trees and the best children’s toys. We also have guides to the best Christmas gifts for women and the best Christmas gifts for men.)
