Venchi’s Prestige Chocolate Advent Calendar is a luxurious and entertaining way to commence the countdown to Christmas. Part calendar, part puzzle and part chocolate lover’s dream come true, it contains 25 of Venchi’s finest chocolates (yes people, there’s a bonus one) placed into little boxes with different images on their sides. These boxes can then be rearranged to create different larger images, and therefore a constantly changing decoration. That should keep the kids busy while you help them out with the chocolates… And you’re going to want to get involved with those, because it contains a veritable pic ‘n’ mix of Venchi’s greatest hits. Expect the riches gianduja, caramelised Piedmont hazelnuts, decadent almond paste and the finest white, milk and dark chocolate. These Italian delicacies are enough to make you go weak at the knees. December can’t come soon enough! Silviano Venchi started to make chocolate and confectionery at the tender age of sixteen back in the 1800s. His little shop in the city of Cuneo in Piedmont became renowned for the jewels he created using only the highest quality ingredients. The Venchi company was officially founded in 1878 and is now much loved in 70 countries throughout the world, from London to Hong Kong and from Dubai to New York. This ever-growing empire continues its meteoric rise with stores planned for China and Japan, but Venchi has never lost sight of its founder’s passion and artistry.
