People are considering replacing a traditional Christmas favorite with a new option that they believe captures the essence of the festive season. Some individuals are suggesting that the latest offering from Marks and Spencer might divert attention from well-known selections like Celebrations, Heroes, Quality Street, and Roses.
Daniel Chubb, the founder of the Snack Reviews Facebook group with 533,000 members, unveiled a detailed look at the 1.2kg chocolate tin named the Big Mix by M&S. Priced at £12, the Big Mix is described by M&S as the largest assortment they have ever offered for Christmas.
The tin contains a generous 1.2kg of chocolates, including chocolate-covered toffees, caramels, and creams with classic flavors to cater to all family members. Families can indulge in a wide variety of treats as they gather together in anticipation of the holiday season.
In his post, Daniel showcased the contents of the metal tin, displaying a complete menu of the assorted chocolates inside. Similar to other major Christmas chocolate tubs, the specific quantities of each chocolate are not guaranteed as they are mixed, but with 1.2kg of space, there is certainly a wide selection available.
Many people were impressed by the substantial size of the tin, with some commending it as a return to the proper size of Christmas chocolates. Comparisons were drawn to popular brands like Celebrations, Heroes, Quality Street, and Roses, which have reportedly decreased in size over the years.
Comments from consumers included praise for M&S’s offering surpassing Quality Street in quality and presentation. The decision by Quality Street manufacturers to transition from foil wrappers to recyclable paper packaging for their chocolates was also highlighted.
Further accolades were directed towards M&S in the Snack Reviews post, with customers expressing satisfaction at the return of the traditional Quality Street style and flavors. For those who prefer a smaller option or wish to supplement an existing tub, a 650g pouch of the chocolates is available for £7, making them a suitable alternative or gift for the holiday season.
