The best food advent calendars for Christmas 2024

The epic feasting advent calendar from Fortnum & Mason is back for 2024 and is even better than previous years! There's a mixture of mini and full size products behind each door and includes their brand-new Merrilossus Biscuits.

If you love their Chocolossus biscuits, you'll adore this Christmas version! Find some other classics like their Boxing Day Pickle, Marmalade Vodka and plenty of tea, biscuits and condiments to ensure your Christmas snacks are the best they can be.

I had a sneak peek of this gorgeous advent calendar a few weeks ago and when I tell you my jaw dropped, it dropped to the floor! This year's calendar has been beautifully designed by artist Nina Fuga, and each drawer contains a specially selected treat from the Daylesford farmshop shelves, including favourites from food to home fragrance and more.​ There's a limited number available this year, so sign up at the link to be notified on when it goes on sale!

Just like last year's Panettone advent calendar, we suspect this Malt Ball advent calendar by Selfridges to be a sell out. The playful packaging will add some festive cheer when you're counting down the days until Christmas and inside each door you'll find blonde, salted caramel, orange and cookies and cream flavoured malt balls. Our malty wishes have come true!

If you're a fan of liquorice (and even if you aren't) Lakrids by Bulow is the one brand that will change your mind about liquorice as it's covered in a generous coating of chocolate, and typically flavoured with raspberry, coffee, salted caramel and even passionfruit to name a few. Find some fan favourites behind each door, and some limited flavours, just to make December that much better.

This mega advent calendar from Cartwright & Butler includes 5kg worth of products! That's one hefty calendar! You'll find an assortment of crackers, chutneys, coffee, tea, biscuits and sweeties to enjoy in the lead up to Christmas day.

Yes, your eyes are not deceiving you - Walkers has brought out a brand-new crisps advent calendar for 2024 and we cannot contain our excitement! 24 days of crispy goodness!

Paxton & Whitfield's epic cheese advent calendar is back and this year's iteration looks even bigger and better than last year. For the true cheese-aholic, this one comes in three separate deliveries (to ensure the cheese stays fresh and at its best for when you eat it). Filled with 24 generously sized pieces of cheese (75g each!), ranging from classic like Cheddar and Stilton to more unique British and European cheeses.

Who doesn't love a crisp? Especially when it's Pringles! With a pack behind all 12 doors, and a combination of all four classic flavours (sour cream & onion for me please), this is the ultimate gift for crisp lovers.

Joe & Seph are back with another epic popcorn advent calendar this year and this one is filled with 24 packs of their irresistible flavoured popcorn. Highlights include the apple pie & custard flavour and mint chocolate popcorn! Available to pre-order and ships after the 1st October!

Emma Bridgewater and Biscuiteers have partnered this year to release this gorgeous hand-stitched fabric advent pouch to put the beautiful hand-iced vanilla biscuits into. Each biscuit comes in various festive ornaments and characters, and the fabric calendar and tin will bring joy for many years to come.

This one feels very nostalgic – it's full of Refreshers, Drumsticks, Love Hearts and all those classic sweets we all enjoyed tucking into as kids (and still do now!).
