Nestle KitKat and Friends Big Biscuit Box
The Nestle KitKat and Friends Big Biscuit Box is also an ideal companion for your tea or coffee break, containing a generous 69 bars with favourites such as KitKat Original and Toffee Crisp has been drawing attention on Amazon.
Despite one customer pointing out “Not the box pictured but a clear white cardboard box hence the three stars. That said. Good selection of chocolate bars and good value for money”, the selection still seems to be good value for money, earning an impressive 4.4 out of 1,183 reviews. A satisfied buyer mentioned: “Ideal for the kids to take a treat. Just the right size when you need a sweet fix. Brilliant value for money long shelf life.”
Meanwhile, another commented: “This has a good variety of the pictured chocolates and at a reasonable price for the mix. However the size of the toffee crisp was much smaller than I expected which takes one star off. Chocolate was of usual standard.”
Mars’ Mixed Bulk Chocolate Box
For those looking for variety, the Mars’ Mixed Bulk Chocolate Box offers a tempting mix including Snickers, Twix, and Maltesers – a total of 1.4kg of individually wrapped treats. It boasts an excellent 4.6 rating out of 13,198 reviews on Amazon.
One chocolate lover raved: “Got this box for a present and it was such great quality and a great gift idea for someone who loves chocolate, great tastes, and a brilliant variety.”
However, one customer did comment: “I ordered these thinking they were good value, but the only ones I felt were the proper size were the Twix and Bounty, the others seemed to be on the small size, what you would actually buy in the shop.”
Cadbury Heroes Box
Filled with 2kg of their classic chocolates, customers can look forward to Fudge, Twirl, Cadbury Creme Egg, Eclairs, Dairy Milk Caramel, Dairy Milk, Wispa, Double Decker and Crunchie Bits.
The box has received a 4.6 out of 9,334 reviews. One satisfied customer wrote: “What a fantastic find. The quality, condition, appearance and taste are. The size, texture and variety are great. This is definitely excellent value for money. I am very happy with my purchase.”
One person did note: “The chocolate were great and had an even mix of different types . The only delay was how long the item took to be sent out.”
Celebrations Bulk Box
The largest of the lot, the Celebrations 2.4kg box, contains Twix, Galaxy Caramel, Maltesers, Milky Way, Galaxy, Bounty, Mars and Snickers. It also has stellar reviews, boasting a 4.6 out of 20,972 reviews.
Chocoholics have been raving about the value of a bumper box of chocolates, with one delighted buyer exclaiming: “I bought these when they were on offer. Opened the box and it was filled to the top! Well worth the money. Every time my family and friends came to my home, out came the box with everyone’s favourite. I took a few of my favourite chocolates out first before though and hid them. Can’t fault them at all. Even right now, while I am doing the review, I have a few Snickers chocolates. 10/10!”
However, not all feedback has been so sweet, as one customer expected a more decorative presentation, remarking: “I expected a box of Celebrations that I could put out on the table, as shown in the picture on the listing. It arrived as a plastic bag of sweets in a standard wholesale box, not in any way decorative. Amount of chocolates is good value but the photo is very misleading. I’ll have to decant them into something else.”
Cadbury Dairy Milk Big Night In Collection
For those looking for a cosier treat, the Cadbury Dairy Milk Big Night In Collection packs a range of choccie delights into a hamper-style package, boasting ten selections including Dairy Milk Orange Giant Buttons and Whole Nut amongst others.
Scoring high in customer satisfaction, this chocolate selection holds a 4.6 rating from 1,793 reviews, with satisfied customers like the one who shared: “Bought as an extra Christmas present. The recipient loved the box and was pleasantly surprised by the large amount of chocolate contents. Well worth it.”
However, a disgruntled customer remarked: “It came with a lot of chocolate and definitely a good deal for money but the box came with a hole in which I was not very happy about as was meant to be a Christmas present.”
