Highlights for me included opening a door to find not just one Lindt Milk Snowdrop, but two, a mini reindeer chocolate and teddy bear chocolate as part of the regular countdown, and the cherry on the cake - the big guy himself, Santa behind the door no.24. It's certainly a generously filled advent calendar that I feel is reasonably priced for Lindt.

The issue was found during routine testing, the company said, "which Lidl performs on an ongoing basis to help ensure safe and quality products for our customers." As of time of publication, Lidl US had received no reports or complaints of illness related to the affected product. As you can see from the photo, the chocolate is good until March 2022, so you don’t have to worry about the expiry date. There will be many more advent calendar products that Costco will carry, so you can always stop by to buy these. The recalled products, which have a barcode number of 4056489516965, were available for sale at Lidl stores from Oct. 12, 2022, through Dec. 5, 2022, and have a "BEST IF USED BY" year of 2023, the announcement stated.

Of course, one calendar we’ve never been able to find is the famous Costco Wine Advent Calendar. Well, this year we finally got it, and we’re here to tell you all about it (for better or worse). Now there are options for kids and adults, with all kinds of surprises for every day until Christmas in December – your pets can have fun too. This wine was received as a sample for the purposes of writing this review. The Costco Advent Wine Calendar 2022 is here! Despite the poor quality of last year’s version, we decided to get one for the team and take a look at the 2022 version. Read on for our in-depth review and brief tasting notes on each wine.

Being Goodto's Food Editor for many years now I have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the best food produce, especially at Christmas and especially when it comes to chocolate. I've tried a wide range of chocolate brands over the years to know what's worth the money and what's not - I have a serious sweet tooth, can you tell? Behind each door I found an individually wrapped truffle - be it gingerbread flavour, salted caramel, hazelnut praline, or hazelnut rocher. Not a big selection in terms of flavours, however the generous size and taste of the chocolates made up for it. The giant hazelnut rocher was actually large compared to the average-sized piece of chocolate you tend to get in a chocolate advent calendar. It was so big in fact that I found it hard to get it out of the calendar door but after a bit of a wiggle, it was free and ready to be devoured with a cuppa.The joy of popping open a small cardboard square to reveal and enjoy festive chocolate was cut short at day 10 of the Christmas countdown on one confectioner's Advent calendar this year. then there is . However you choose to browse, be sure to browse all the holiday goodies on your next Costco run. But at the higher end, they come from France, Spain, Portugal, Moldova, Georgia and Italy to name a few places. I think Lindt chocolate is pure indulgence and this chocolate advent calendar showcases some of Lindt's finest chocolates this Christmas. 'Variety' and 'quality' are two words that spring to mind when reviewing this calendar. There may only be nine different flavoured chocolates or variations of chocolate to choose from, but it feels like there is so much more.

Mostly dark fruit, the wine is youthful with slightly rustic undertones. Super fun to try. Although December 1 is still a few weeks away, retailers have been offering advent calendars since September. Gone are the days when these calendars consisted of milk chocolate bars in the shape of Santa and jingle bells. One more note (written before tasting this year’s wines) as we have received this question several times. If you expect every wine to be the best, the Costco Wine Advent Calendar is not for you (see last year’s version – see more on that below). What Are The Ingredients In Lindt Chocolates?

How does the chocolate advent calendar look; is it vibrant, and festive, would you happily display it on your kitchen side in the run-up to Christmas or hide it away in the cupboard? Value for money; how much does the chocolate advent calendar cost, is that a good price per gram, does the price reflect the brand, is it too expensive, too cheap, and why? If you're looking for quality chocolate, that doesn't cost the earth - and that you could even share with a loved one (only if you want to share of course!) this is my choice for 2023. Personal experience: Like most people, I have a chocolate advent calendar every year, so I've tried and loved several of the products in the list.
