Chocolate coins are a tradition for the holidays – from Hanukkah to Christmas. And for Black Xmas.
Their history (thank you Wikipedia) –
In the United Kingdom chocolate coins mimic the design of real money; they are traditionally bought around Christmas and are used to decorate the Christmas tree and to fill the stockings of children. When children visit a friend or relative they are allowed to find and take chocolates from the tree as a treat. A variant of this is that chocolate coins are hidden somewhere in the house for children to find, often in the form of a treasure trail
As a Christmas tradition, the chocolate coin giving is said to be inspired by the deeds of Saint Nicholas in the fourth century,[1] with chocolate coins introduced some time after chocolate’s introduction into Europe in the sixteenth century
For Black Xmas we wanted to give you not one, but two. Because why not be able to spread the cheers as well.
