Dark Choco: Aww, my parents got me this, which is super sweet of them since it's nut free and all. However, I don't LOVE dark chocolate enough to look forward to it every day (don't tell them). Still, the setup is super cute. At first I thought each day's choco would be identical, and while food-wise they are, each is wrapped in different color foil and the molds are different. They are all squares but one has a raised snowman, one a santa, one a wreath, etc. The taste is basically "standard dark chocolate", which is fine and I guess healthier than milk choco(?) but it's not exotic or salted or creamy or anything that makes me go "wow! a special treat!. Despite that, the conceit of one-a-day candy is lovely, and they do make a milk chocolate one which is probably even better.
Milk Choco: 2025 Me bought herself the milk choco version, and she made a great call. I love advent calendars and the milk choco tastes good. Nice 'n creamy, cute, small portions, something to look forward to in the dark times (sunset at 4.30pm). Same design as the 2017 dark, so the intrigue factor is low, but the delight factor is still pretty darn high.
Overall
Cost: 5/10 (about 15$)
Taste: 6/10 (dark), 8/10 (milk)
