Everyone knows that Christmas is that one day of the year (or month) when you have the perfect excuse to sit back and indulge in the finer things. So if you – or someone you care about – love all things sweet, then we recommend making a note of Fortnum & Mason’s fantastic festive Christmas treats.
From mouth-watering stocking fillers like Fortnum and Mason’s Chocolate Bars & Library to truffles packed into beautiful boxes like edible jewels, something from Fortnum & Mason is always guaranteed to impress.
Start the festive season with Fortnum and Mason chocolate gift ideas for Christmas, such as:
Glacé Fruits Selection: Fortnum & Mason’s Glacé Fruits are handmade in France in a delicate, traditional fashion, with cooked fruits being slowly steeped in increasingly-strong sugar solutions over a period of many months.
Dark Chocolate Griottes: Fortnum & Mason’s Dark Chocolate Griottes are handmade in England from Kentish Morello cherries. Each Griotte is steeped in brandy for a minimum of three years before it is dipped in fondant sugar and decadent dark chocolate.
Caramel & Toffee Tin: Each caramel and toffee in this keepsake tin is mixed by hand in small batches, inside traditional copper cauldrons to a secret recipe, then decorated, foiled and packed by hand in England.
Nutcracker Biscuits: Tuck into these festive biscuits laden with rich pistachios, creamy almonds and sweet cranberries.
Elvas Plums: The original sugar plums, whose name was borrowed by Tchaikovsky for his now-famous fairy, these incredible sweet treats hail from the Elvas region of Alentejo, Portugal, where greengage plums are cooked and then soaked in sugar for six weeks.
Salted Caramel Berlingot: Delicately handmade in France just for Fortnum’s, these melt-in-the-mouth Salted Caramel Berlingot Sweets have a creamy and chewy centre and the most exquisite taste of caramel.
Christmas Spiced Chocolate Bar: The spirit of Christmas is well and truly alive in the ‘The Night It Snowed Stars’ chocolate bar. This limited edition bar is only available in paperback during the festive period and is part of Fortnum and Mason’s Chocolate Library.
Christmas Peppermint Bark: Handmade in small batches, this bracing Bark is made by pouring an English peppermint-infused white chocolate over a base of rich and decadent dark chocolate.
Nutcracker Iced Biscuits: Iced by hand and crafted in the shape of the story’s most recognisable characters, including the Nutcracker! and a Prima Ballerina, the 12 handmade gingerbread bites are beyond scrumptious.
Holiday gifting has never been so sweet!
