Of course, each single-serve of chocolate flakes is best when made with the Velvetiser™– it’s the only way to get that super-silky, cloud-like finish. If, however, you don’t have a Velvetiser (yet!), you can still make each one on the hob with your choice of milk or dairy alternative.

The contents: In our edit you'll open the door to reveal a full-size single-serve portion of velvety-smooth, intensely creamy hot chocolate each day. Super-creamy and tooth-achingly sweet, white chocolate is, quite frankly, delicious. Dentists might not recommend it every day, but we do, which is why we’ve selected some of the best white chocolate calendars available this year for your consideration.

Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. Now we know deep down that chocolate shouldn’t really be part of your breakfast, but that adds to the indulgence of it all, and arguably the small bite-sized squares you get in an advent calendar taste even better than a full-sized bar as a result. The issue comes when making the decision as to which one, or in our case how many, you’re going to commit to buying this year, with so many different options on offer. Christmas cheer: We wanted this edit to be festive and joyful, and we believe each and every one of these advent calendars would make a great gift. And if you know someone else who owns a Velvetiser, or just adores hot chocolate, this drinking chocolate Advent calendar makes a truly thoughtful gift, and the perfect way to share Christmas cheer.

Drinking Chocolate Advent Calendar 2023 | Hotel Chocolat

What: Not only is HAPPi's advent calendar vegan and gluten-free, it's also plastic-free, making it the perfect gift for your eco-conscious friend, child or sibling! Having sampled HAPPi's oat milk-based chocolate, we're more than happy eating this 24 days in a row - we'd even continue eating it well into next year if you give us the chance. The lowdown: Tony’s Chocolonely’s not only tastes great, but the business is also trying to make the world a better place. With Fairtrade sourcing and a mission to make 100% slave free the norm in chocolate, we think it’s safe to say these are some pretty good guys. The chocolate is chunky and addictive, and this countdown calendar offers ten different flavours of chocolate so you can sample all that they offer before settling on your favourites to buy in bulk throughout the year. Favourites of ours include the dark milk chocolate with pretzel and toffee pieces as well as the salted caramel. The lowdown: We’ve included quite a few Hotel Chocolat advent calendars in our round-up this year, but then that is what these guys do best. Deep and smooth, with rich cacao notes, this 70% advent calendar contains 24 dark chocolate reindeer, snowmen, penguins and enchanted spruces. There’s nothing quite like the excitement of peeling open the doors of an Advent calendar to reveal the chocolate treasure waiting inside. Except, perhaps, opening the door to reveal a full-size single-serve sachet of velvety-smooth, intensely creamy hot chocolate each day… With a selection of best-loved classics and seasonal limited editions from our library of drinking chocolate recipes, you’ll be treated to a taste of all our chocolate flavour profiles – from deep, decadent 85% Dark, to astonishingly creamy Vanilla-White, via warming Chilli, zesty Salted Caramel & Clementine and tongue-tingling Mint. Each one is made only with real chocolate flakes, so you can be assured that you’ll get that same deeply satisfying taste you experience with our pralines, truffles and solid chocolates, even in our white hot chocolate.The lowdown: We’re slightly cheating on this one, as it only contains one box of hot chocolate among 25 luxurious F&M treats, but we couldn’t help ourselves – just look at it! As well as Fortnum & Mason’s mini milk hot chocolate box, this whopper of an advent calendar (that definitely also belongs under the ‘luxury’ category below) contains everything you could want over the festive season, from tea and coffee to chocolate, biscuits, preserves, condiments and alcohol. Merry Christmas indeed.
