When it comes to Advent Calendars, the classic is something filled with chocolate. As not the biggest fan of chocolate, I often spend some time trying to find advent calendars that contain different fillings, however, there are a bunch of really awesome, unique advent calendars that caught my eye! If you are a chocolate lover looking for something new, these are the calendars for you.

Mozart Marzipan Advent Calendar

The Mozart chocolate and marzipan advent calendar is one that really caught Dann’s eye! This calendar has an assortment of three different German candies, each with chocolate and marzipan. There are three mainc hocolates – Echte Reber Mozart-Kugeln, Mozart Herz’l, and Mozart Medaillon – which all taste amazing! This calendar does contain nuts, but is great for those who are a bit more sophisticated in the chocolates they eat and those who do love a bit of marzipan.

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to choosing the perfect gift, it can always be a challenge. There are so many different gifts out there and everyone seems to have different hobbies and things that they enjoy. We tasked ourselves with finding gifts for our entire family, using IWOOT – a gift shop that has lots and lots of different gifts for any occasion. We wanted to make sure that everyone in our household of five was able to have a gift that they enjoyed, with some bonuses thrown in. There was so much to choose from on the site, it did take a while for us to settle on the items we did!

[Ad- gifted products] When I was a kid, I actually stopped living with my mother at the age of 15. She didn’t really care for me, and I ended up in the full time care of my father, who has always been a wonderful part of my life. He had basically be playing the role of all parental figures, along with my grandma helping out, when I was 10 years old. My dad is a simple guy, he’s happy, go lucky, and spent a lot of my childhood working so that we could have a better life. He really was a massive influence on who I am today, raised me on his own for many years, and we still have weekly phone calls where we talk about everything and anything. As Father’s Day is quickly approaching, it can be a challenge to get fathers gifts, as they are adults who seem to have everything they could ever need. With the help of Find me a Gift, however, I was able to find a bunch of wonderful options!

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to Christmas, there is always a lot of shopping to do! It’s one of my favorite things – picking out the perfect gift and seeing if your loved one enjoys it. As I live in a completely different country to my family, I do often send gifts directly to them – but since the world is currently the way it is, we are turning more and more to online shopping! It’s great that companies like Moonpig offer a variety of different cards, gifts and more that can be sent directly to your loved one’s home.

Their cards are what they are known for – and they have introduced a large amount of funny lockdown related cards and Christmas cards that can be send to your family and friends. There is even the option to add your own images to cards, sending Christmas cards that are personalised out. The inside of the cards can be written out by you, adding your own special message. It’s a great service that I do use when I need to send a card out to others! But, Moonpig also does gifts, so let me tell you about some of the coolest gifts on theirs site.
