British selection boxes, sent from Halifax

Choose a familiar selection box for a stocking, a family visit or a gift sent straight to somebody else. We pack it at our Halifax shop for delivery to Canadian homes and PO boxes, with no customs or unexpected import fees.

Selection boxes belong in the most comprehensive range of British food expats actually miss, with every product earning its place and no filler. Our Halifax team grew up eating these brands and selects their UK versions. Read the shop’s reviews from across Canada for experiences beyond the Christmas chocolate aisle.

Chosen for the cupboard

Pick their favourite British chocolate

Start with the chocolate they reach for first: a little Cadbury for a stocking, Galaxy for a chocolate lover, or a larger box for sharing.

Compare the actual contents

A Cadbury Small Selection Box, Stocking Selection Box and a Galaxy box are different assortments. Open the product listing for the current contents and pack weight before choosing by the front-of-box brand alone.

A small gift or a larger share

Use the supplied box size and contents to decide whether it fits a stocking, a small present or a household chocolate choice. Product descriptions give the practical detail; the festive photograph is a serving-style illustration.

Plan using each product’s dispatch wording

Christmas pre-orders display their own expected dispatch information. In-stock packing guidance applies to in-stock products, so check the individual status when combining seasonal and everyday groceries.

Getting the selection boxes ready for Christmas

Check the expected dispatch window on each selection boxes product before you choose. The current selection boxes pre-order window is late October to early November, with the whole basket dispatched together once those items arrive.

If the everyday groceries beside your selection boxes are needed sooner, place them separately for the usual working-day dispatch. For in-stock selection boxes, packing normally takes one working day, with up to three in busy periods.

Full shipping policy ↗

Province rates and free-delivery thresholds for selection boxes are set out in our shipping policy. When planning for selection boxes, add packing and the stated pre-order window to the courier estimate shown at checkout.
