It is getting to be that time of year, where Christmas presents are on everyones mind. For me, a integral part of the Christmas shop involves going to Thorntons for chocolate. This usually starts out under the guise of buying as a gift for someone else, but inevitably ends up with me also buying a treat or 2 for myself too!

I usually go to the one in Eldon Square in Newcastle (address above) which is also a coffee shop where you can also sit with a fab hot chocolate while you think about what to buy. If you are unable to get to a store, then you can also order from Thorntons online (website address above), or even just use the site to browse and get an idea of the kind of products that they sell.

The range is gorgeous and there are loads of personalised options, corporate gifts and festive gifts - you can even get diabetic chocolate which can be a lovely way to include loved ones who cannot eat normal sweet treats.

There is too much to mention here, but I recommend that you try the special toffee (smothered in chocolate - so good!) and if you are buying for the first time, maybe consider a box of mixed continental chocolates. That way you get to try loads of different ones and decide which are your favourites. You can also buy individual chocolates from the counter, so that can be another great way of tasting new ones - or just getting your favourite ones every time.

Prices range from quite reasonable to more expensive depending on what you buy, but this is good chocolate so you don't mind paying for it. They usually have seasonal offers on too, have a look at their website for further details.

Definitely recommend that you try this shop, if you like delicious and luxurious chocolate treats, then this is the place for you!

Summary: Treat yourself or a loved one today!
