The UK Favourites calendar of 2025 (41 products, 24 full size, 1,025 GBP of contents for 350) is the edition the UK search remembers and the one we have no 2026 record for. The 2024 EU box rated 5 out of 5 from us. Twelve records in all, back to the Moving Lights collection boxes of 2024.
Buy Favorites EU for the brands, the Collection Premium for the case and the count, and read the full-size column before either: the US box's three of twenty-five is the number that matters there.
Step 01
Match the doors to the days
9 of the 12 here have 24 doors — a 24-door box opens one a day from 1 December to Christmas Eve. The others run 7 and 25, and the shorter ones start partway through the month: a 12-door box opens on 13 December. For someone who will not open one every day, or a gift that will arrive late, fewer doors is the better fit, not the lesser calendar. Every start date →
Step 02
Know which season you are buying
4 of the 12 here are 2026 editions, and 3 are last season's — still sold, often discounted, and with the contents already on the page. The 5 older than that are listed for the record, not for buying. A brand's page keeps every edition together, so check whether the box you are looking at is this year's before you compare prices.
Step 03
Check what is inside against the price
Every calendar page that we have costed shows what the contents come to against the sticker price. We have done that for 9 of the 12 here: the median box holds 2.9× its own price in product, the spread runs 1.4× to 3.7×, and every one of them comes to more than it costs. Below 1.0× you are paying for the box; none here does that.
Step 04
Start from the ones we have opened
2 of the 12 here carry an editors' pick — the chip above the grid narrows the shelf to those — and 5 have a written score. Those are the boxes somebody on this site has actually judged. The rest are listed because they exist, not because we are recommending them; being on this page is not a verdict. How we review →
