“I know this is a harsh rating. The chocolates themselves are great. However, as an advent calendar, it is more or less useless. The compartments have too little space between them for the front cover to maintain structural integrity once the first few doors have been opened. From the start, opening one carries a high risk of popping the perforations on one of its neighbours. By 5 December it was just a box of chocolates with a very ragged lid. On the 8th we gave up and declared a free-for-all. I will buy Friars chocolates again. But not the advent calendar.”

Hello Catherine, I'm sorry that the Advent calendar you purchased from us didn't last as we would expect it to. I will pass on your feedback to the design team so that they are aware of the issues you have highlighted and hopefully, this can be resolved for next year's calendars. Kind Regards Friars Customer Service

“Love this advent calendar, the truffles are so yummy! Had it last year and was a bit disappointed as didn't come with a menu so couldn't tell what the chocolates were, but messaged this year and they included a menu so will enjoy having them again this year knowing what the flavours are”

“Love the chocolates, but wish it came with a menu telling you what flavours the chocolates were! If it did it would be 5 stars!”

Hello Bethany, Thank you for your feedback on our Advent calendar. We don't include a menu for the Advent calendar contents as we feel it would spoil the surprise each day and it would be difficult to attach somewhere so that the calendar wouldn't need to be fully opened to access the menu itself. Kind Regards Friars Customer Service
