does anyone else think the chocolate in most advent calendars tastes pretty nasty? Yuck  :disappointed:

But of course, my MIL still buys them for the boys..... one of whom doesn't even EAT chocolate (unless it's on a reeses cup! lol)

The Les Chocolates Vadeboncoeur brand advent calendar at Shopper`s should be different as they make good tasting chocolate!!  :)

I just ordered out Guardian Angel advent calendar yesterday.  DD is excited.

The calendar arrived today from Peanut Free Planet.  That was quick.

I noticed today that Shopper`s has two peanut-free advent calendars!

1)  Les Chocolates Vadeboncoeur brand

2) Life brand

So two choices! :)

Darn, I bought the Life brand.  Hope it is as tasty as the Les Chocolate Vadeboncoeur brand!

But we're not canadian and don't have access to that brand I don't think? (I don't want it for allergen reasons but I DO find the chocolate SO gross in most of them). Is there a place to order that brand online?

I am not sure if it can be ordered on-line..  you could check at their website (sorry I didn't have time to check, 2 kids climbing all over me now)

The peanut-free logo is on it

Sometimes Peanut Free Planet can get things like that. They do carry that brand sometimes so I would email and ask them.

Hi there,

Can you please tell me which Shopper's location you saw the Vadeboncoeur ones?  I have called about a dozen SDM and can't find them.

Thanks!

I found it at the Shoppers by the Bloor-Yonge subway station next to the Bay.  I will check tomorrow and see if they have any in stock and post here tomorrow night to let you know :)

Hi there,

I actually managed to find them at a Shoppers by my workplace in Mississauga.  If anyone's interested the price for these are $5.99 and there are only 24 days on the calendars.
