We’ve been checking out Hotel Chocolat’s Christmas range, and this year it’s all about bringing fun, imagination, and a touch of luxury into your festive celebrations. Whether you’re ticking off that gift list or just want to make the most of the season of plenty, there’s something truly special about this line-up.

The Grand Wreath Box: Not just for display

First up, a gorgeously festive holiday wreath you can eat. The Grand Wreath Box isn’t just a feast for the eyes, as it houses 84 pieces of beautifully crafted chocolate bursting with festive flavours. Choose it as your after-lunch indulgence in the centre of your Christmas table.

Their ‘Supernova’ chocolates are the real stars here — intentionally asymmetrical, mirroring the unique patterns of a real supernova, they come in interesting little bites of caramel, hazelnut, honey, and cashew. It’s like a little galaxy of taste waiting for you to explore.

The Rather Large Cracker: Big on surprises

When they say ‘large,’ they mean it. This behemoth is filled with some of Hotel Chocolat’s most loved recipes, and it’s not just a decoration! it's a huge, fully functioning cracker, and getting it open is half the fun — gather around for a tug of war over who gets the honours.

Inside, there’s plenty to go around with 40 delicious chocolates, perfectly suitable for sharing. Expect boozy truffles, caramel penguins, and snowflake shapes, all listed on a handy chocolate menu so you can beat other hands away from your favourites.

This must-have treat also comes filled with paper hats and lots of jokes, and, crucially, it’s recyclable. We recommend you forget those pale imitations filled with plastic tat and go for the big one this year.
