Terry's Chocolate Orange Advent Calendar - 106g

In Britain, a Terry's Chocolate Orange is part of the furniture at Christmas. It turns up in the stocking, on the coffee table, wedged in beside the selection boxes, and somebody always does the tap on the edge of the table before opening it.

That particular orange chocolate is the one people mean when they want a UK Christmas countdown. It is what the family back home is opening every morning, and it is nice to be opening the same door on the same day, whatever the time difference.

It is a slim 106g calendar, light enough to post on to someone else and flat enough to slide into a bag. Keep it somewhere cool and well away from the radiator until the first of December, then one door a day, in theory.

Plenty of people pick up a whole Chocolate Orange to go with it, for the stocking or for that moment after Christmas dinner when the tin has been raided of all the good ones. Add a UK selection box and Christmas morning is sorted as well.
