Celebrations Small Carton - 163g

If you grew up in the UK, a box of Celebrations at Christmas was not optional. It was just there, on the coffee table, lid slightly askew, with someone having already picked out all the Maltesers.

The Celebrations Small Carton from Mars is the 185g version of that very familiar assortment, a compact carton of individually wrapped miniature chocolates drawn from the Mars family of classics. It is the UK version, imported from the United Kingdom, which means it is exactly what British expats in Canada are thinking of when they reach for it.

The Great British Shop stocks this as part of its range of British confectionery shipped from Canada, which means no waiting on a parcel from home and no hoping a visiting relative remembered to pack one. It is the sort of product that does not need much explaining to anyone who has spent a Christmas in Britain.

At 185g, the small carton is well suited to tucking into a hamper, leaving out at a gathering, or keeping entirely to yourself, which is a perfectly reasonable decision that no one here will judge. It is a seasonal import from the UK, so availability is not guaranteed year-round.
