Grams per door is the figure (Kinder Bueno is 181 g across 24 doors, Jelly Belly eight grams of beans a door) and the score follows the chocolate and whether the maker names the pieces. The chocolate page holds the whole shelf, adult boxes included.
Step 01
Read the weight before the door count
Twenty-four doors can weigh 180 g or 850 g, and nobody on a food shelf prints a valuation, so grams per door is the figure that separates a box of mini balls from a box of bars. The calendar pages print the weight where the maker does; a 24-door box under 200 g is a taste a day, over 500 g is a real piece.
Step 02
Prefer a printed list, or know why there is none
28 of the 28 here come with the maker's list of what is behind the doors — Charbonnel et Walker Peter Rabbit 2026, dmBio Schoko 2026 and enerBiO Adventskalender Vollmilchschokolade 2026 among them; 0 do not. Where a maker will not say what is behind door nine, the page says so, and the score reflects it.
Step 03
Compare the price per door
Across the 28 here with a list price, a door costs from about $0 to about $3, and the median is about $1.08. A chocolate door under a dollar is a mini ball; a door over three dollars should be a bar or a named praline. How the door price is counted →
Step 04
Start from this season's, from the ones we have opened
28 of the 53 on this page are 2026 editions and every one carries a verdict from us. The earlier editions stay listed for the record; the grid puts this season first.
