Which boxes of chocolates do you get in for Christmas?

When we were kids we always used to have Newberry fruits, Weekend, Fruit jelly slice things 🤮
After eights and Matchmakers.
Quality street and Roses.
Well there were 6 of us 😆

We still have After Eights but we always have a box of liqueurs and some Godiva chocs or Monty Bojangles chocs... can't get enough of them 😋
And a Terry's choc orange. 🐷

Which boxes of choc's do you get in for Christmas?

When I was a kid we used to have a tin of Roses and Quality Street, After Eights, Matchmakers, Chocolate Orange, Turkish Delight, Thornton's toffee, loads of sweets hung on the tree, Elizabeth Shaw mints, and probably loads of other sweets, no wonder I'm fat.

These days the only sweets I buy are After Eights, my DH has a nut allergy so can't eat most of them. I buy my DS a big bar of Dairy Milk and Galaxy, because that's the chocolate he will eat. I don't buy any others because if I don't buy them I can't eat them. I might treat myself to a chocolate orange though.

Roses, after eights, matchmakers, Elizabeth shaw mint crisps. I love nut chocolates so sometimes we get just Brazil’s, usually get given a tin of quality st and celebrations plus shortbread and chocolate biscuits.
My kids get tubes Of sweets and chocs plus the odd selection box and they have to have flying saucers, reading this we are heading for diabetes!
