As a child there were 9 of us (and often my older sibling's boyfriends). My mum bought very every type of chocolate going I think!
Roses ( the huge 1kg tin they used to do)
Quality Street (ditto)
Chocolate Brazils
After Eights
Toblerone
Big bars of Galaxy, Dairy Milk, Fruit & Nut, Bourneville (for my Dad!)
Ferrero Rocher
The peanut, raisin & chocolate chip mix
Mini Mars bars
Chocolate Fudge

I don't think Heroes or Celebrations were around when I was young (at least I don't remember them), but as I got older Mum bought these as well!
I'm getting sorely tempted to start on one of my tubs of chocolates!

Mint matchmakers - but they are not to be opened before Christmas Day 😂 they go in stockings.

Quality street, hero’s, used to get mingles! I’ve gone off celebrations so I don’t know if we will get them. My BIL doesn’t eat chocolate so we get boxes of sweets as well for him.

I got a beautiful tin from Lindt last year, shaped like a wreath, and this year just going to fill with lindt chocs and treats etc.

I just have to find a good place to hide it from my youngest DS he cleans it out if he finds it and just leaves me the wrappers!

Oh Mingles! I used to love them! I remember them being discontinued and getting g several boxes for £1 each

We tend not to buy the big tubs of chocolates as the rubbish ones get left. Saying that I’ve bought some heroes on a whim this year and we like them all so hopefully they’ll get eaten.

We buy Lindt truffles, the Guylian trays and anything else which comes up on offer and takes our fancy.

My grandparents always get me Ferrero Rocher for my birthday in December. They said the other day I must be getting bored and did I want something else... no I don’t, I look forward to them

I've used this company for years, I particularly love the school chalks which I first saw on a ferry going to Germany.

Dutch licorice is as good, too.

I love Maltesers

I adore Galaxy

But I go week at the knees when Milky Bars are within 50 yards of my location.



The Milky Bars are on me !
