With a loop to hang it from a bed or door and 24 soft pockets to fill with sweets or little toys (not included), The White Company’s fluffy penguin is the only calendar on our list that you’d actually want to sleep with. Being endlessly personalisable, iced biscuits are a popular gift – but to keep 24 of them fresh, you really need a tin.
This is where advent calendars start to become advent boxes: you’d have a hard time hanging this on the wall. The only downside is each day only has one of each, so you’ll either have to use it as a 12 day calendar, or save your gin and tonic for every other day. More of a family heirloom than an advent calendar, Wedgwood’s ultra-high end offering is an 18-inch tall townhouse filled with 24 exquisitely detailed bone china ornaments in white and blue jasper, all part of the historic firm’s Christmas 2023 collection.
Ask a six year-old what the best advent calendar is and they’ll tell you it’s the one with the most chocolate. My daughter Olive, six, in particular, loved trying the different festive flavours and it includes a surprise gift for Christmas Day. Our Tiptree Gin, Vodka and Rum Liqueurs Advent Calendar holds a selection of miniature liqueurs which are tasty Tiptree tipples and perfect for the season of goodwill. For a slightly more intellectually stimulating December, Julia Donaldson’s much-loved monster counts down to Christmas with a big hardback calendar containing 24 colouring, quizzing, drawing and activity mini-books based on The Gruffalo, Room On The Broom, The Snail and The Whale and others.
You only have to look at the value of the products in some advent calendars to see why they sell out so quickly. Do you try to get your hands on one of the best beauty advent calendars, which often sell out as soon as they go on sale? Your daily treat is an individually wrapped nut butter cup in peanut and almond varieties covered in Colombian dark chocolate. Biscuiteers’ solution is to team up with designer Sophie Conran on on a limited-edition cloth calendar with 24 embroidered pockets, with the biscuits sold separately.Our Tiptree Bus Jam Advent Calendar is a replica of our Tiptree vintage Double Decker Bus and contains a selection of miniature jams and marmalades. Do you blow the budget on an indulgent food advent calendar or sophisticated drinks advent calendar, and give it to someone as an early Christmas gift? It contains 24 individual cheese including 12 from the Somerset-based Ilchester Cheese Company, plus there's a cheesy joke behind every door. It felt really indulgent and special, warming for the winter and perfect for the run-up to Christmas Day.
