Celebrate the festive season with a custom Advent Calendar

21st September 2022

Advent Calendars go hand-in-hand with Christmas, just like mulled wine, mince pies and the Coca-Cola Christmas advert on TV. Give this Christmas tradition a meaningful twist and count down to Christmas a little differently this year. There are options to suit anyone and everyone (even the dog!) with our wide range of personalised Advent Calendars. If you’re not sure where to start, we’ve put together some of our favourite ways you can personalise your Advent Calendar to help kickstart your festive creativity.

A reason to smile every day 

Personalise a Photo Advent Calendar  with fond memories behind each door. Perfect as a gift or something fun for yourself, our customisable Photo Advent Calendar is sure to put a smile on anyone’s face. Whether it’s for someone you’ve taken plenty of photos with or as a gift to yourself to reminisce on your favourite holiday, make the countdown to Christmas truly unique. You can add up to 24 individual photos behind each door, plus one of your favourite photos as the cover to help get you into the festive spirit.

The best part about our Photo Advent Calendars is that it’s totally up to you what to include behind each door. Choose photos you know they’ll love and add personal messages with text to make it extra meaningful, or try spelling out a special message throughout the month for them to decode on Christmas Eve. You can even add a unique QR code behind the doors to share your momentous videos with that special someone.

Sweeten it up with kinder® or Ferrero

The Advent Calendars that we’ve all come to know and love are those that provide a little sweet treat every day in the run up to Christmas. Steer away from the standard shop-bought ones and treat yourself to your own specially designed Advent Calendar for your home – without compromising on the chocolate! Our chocolate Advent Calendars can be personalised however you like and are available with sweet treats from kinder® or Ferrero.

Spoil the kids this year and treat them to a personalised Advent Calendar with kinder® Chocolate.  Customise the Advent Calendar with any image of your choice; a cute portrait of your recipient, the family pet, or perhaps a drawing they made themselves. The possibilities are endless! Plus, you can also choose an image to put behind each door of your kinder® Photo Advent Calendar, meaning you don’t have to compromise on photos or chocolate each day of December.

Don’t let the kids have all the fun! Treat someone special to a personalised Ferrero chocolate calendar, filled with an assortment of tempting Ferrero chocolates.

Plus, you can add your very own design to the front. For example, you could create something to suit your home interior colour scheme, write your favourite quote from a Christmas film or choose a favourite photo. Create your masterpiece using a free online design tool like Canva, then upload into our award-winning software. Making your own personalised chocolate Advent Calendar has never been easier.

Our compostable packaging is 100% sustainable

We take sustainability seriously and are incredibly proud of our green credentials, which is why we have compostable potato-based blister trays replacing our previous plastic version.

These sit neatly inside all our chocolate and fill-your-own varieties and make the post-Christmas clear up that little bit less wasteful thanks to their ability to biodegrade. You could even try using them as small plant trays and giving some seedlings a home!
