The Gold Collection

The elegant 19-piece gold box contains an assortment of GODIVA's signature milk, dark, and white artisanal chocolate. The carefully crafted pieces are selected by GODIVA's Chef Chocolatiers for a decadent tasting experience and include velvety ganache's, creamy caramels, luscious pralines and delicious nuts and fruits.

2021 Gourmet Chocolate Advent Calendar

GODIVA's first holiday advent calendar was introduced 15 years ago and has since become one of the brand's most anticipated releases during the joyous holiday season. The 24-piece 2021 Gourmet Chocolate Advent Calendar features an assortment of premium milk, white and dark chocolates crafted with classic Belgian fillings. The holiday-themed calendar also contains a selection of chocolates shaped like Santa, penguins, and snowmen, which add extra surprise and delight with each window that is opened in the days leading up to Christmas. The advent calendar serves as the perfect – and most delicious - gift leading up to the holidays.

Both the 2021 Gourmet Chocolate Advent Calendar and the iconic Gold Collection will add a touch of sweetness and merriment to the holiday season, whether you're surprising someone special or spoiling yourself.
