British advent calendars

Choose your December countdown

Orderable calendars only. Expected pre-order shipping is shown below; check each product page before you choose.

A little help choosing

Make it your Christmas.

01 / FOR A FAMILIAR FAVOURITE

Cadbury mornings.

The current range includes Cadbury Dairy Milk, Heroes and Biscoff calendars. Choose the calendar itself, rather than assuming every Cadbury calendar has the same chocolate or size.

02 / FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT

Milk, white
or chocolate orange.

Galaxy, Milkybar and Terry’s are among the calendars open to order. The product page has the details you need to match the calendar to its recipient.

03 / BEFORE DECEMBER STARTS

Give the post
a little time.

Calendars need to arrive before the countdown begins. Allow for the expected pre-order window, packing and courier transit. We cannot promise arrival for 1 December from an estimated date alone.

From our shop to your Christmas

A little planning.
A proper Christmas.

Each Christmas pre-order product shows its expected ship window. The current window is late October to early November. If your basket includes a pre-order, we hold the whole order and send it together when that item arrives. Place a separate order for items you need sooner.

Before you order

Christmas questions.
Proper answers.

Will my advent calendar arrive before 1 December?

We cannot guarantee that from a pre-order estimate alone. Check its expected ship window and the delivery estimate at checkout, and allow time for both packing and courier transit.

Are all calendars the same size?

No. Each product card shows the calendar name and size, and the individual product page has the contents and ingredients. Check those details before ordering a gift.

Where does my order ship from?

From our shop in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Your parcel travels within Canada, so there are no import customs fees due on delivery.

When will a Christmas pre-order ship?

Each Christmas pre-order product shows its expected ship window. The current window is late October to early November. If your basket includes a pre-order, we hold the whole order and send it together when that item arrives. Place a separate order for items you need sooner.

How much is delivery?

Shipping depends on the province and order value. Ontario, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick start at $10; Quebec and PEI at $15; Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Newfoundland and Labrador, and British Columbia at $20. Reduced and free-shipping thresholds vary. The minimum order is $49 except Ontario and the territories. See the full shipping policy for current rates and remote-area terms.

Can you deliver to a PO box?

Yes. Enter the full PO box address at checkout to see the available delivery service.

Can you guarantee a Christmas delivery date?

No. Allow for the product’s expected arrival window, our packing time and courier transit. Most in-stock orders leave within one working day, with up to three working days in busy periods. Checkout delivery dates are estimates, not guarantees.
