I am sure the chocolate advent calendar amount is rapidly reducing in favour of lavish alternative versions, but nonetheless they are still about. The amount without gluten or may contains though seem to be rapidly reducing!
If you opt for Dairy Milk ones, please double check your choices as some are fine and others aren't. Also some of the advent calendars you would expect to be gluten free are carrying may contains this year (presumably down to the factory being used).

When it comes to the Christmas chocolates that pop up each year, there are a fair few gluten free choices. This blog is only listing the chocolates that come out (or are so much more popular at xmas, your everyday. standard chocolates which are out all year round you will find in my gluten free chocolate and sweets blog.
As always, in your big (well the shrinkflation version of big) tubs of chocolates, Quality Streets and Roses are gluten free and all Heroes EXCEPT dinky deckers are safe (Cadbury have confirmed they are all made on separate lines and the barley in the ingredients and the may contain are both for the dinky decker). None of the celebrations are safe for coeliacs as they are all produced on the same line, including those you may think are safe as the standard bars are.
If you like a KitKat, sorry the normal KitKats still aren't gluten free but the festive friends ones are as they have been for the last few years. Also if you miss Ferrero Rocher, while the normal size ones aren't gluten free the giant hollow Rocher is, so worth sampling!
