Hotel Chocolat - gifts that are not just for girls

Some very good friends came to dinner last weekend and they bought me a real treat knowing I love chocolate and chilli in equal measure. These Chilli Penguins from Hotel Chocolat make the perfect gift and stocking filler - I certainly wouldn't turn my nose up at a second box! They are 70% dark chocolate so you won't want to eat loads (and that is why I still have some left) and are a modest £6.50.

Looking at their site to write this post I was also rather taken by this Rather Large Christmas Cracker which contains 40 chocolates and 12 party hats and jokes all for £38 which for this quality of chocolate and the novelty alone is well worth the spend.


There is also an amazing Festive Wreath with cookies, caramel and 50% milk chocolate which you definitely won't want to hang outside... It's hand-made, is £20 and serves 8 as an after-dinner dessert - another fantastic talking point or a brilliant gift to take to friends...
