It's that time of year again – Christmas is just around the corner! And for many Quality Street fans, that means it's time to head to John Lewis and indulge in the beloved personalised tins. However, this year, things are a little different. The option to personalise your own tin is no longer available at the department store, causing quite a stir among chocolate lovers.
For some, it has become a tradition to visit John Lewis and fill up their very own purple pick n mix tin. With the power of choice at their fingertips, they can add extra Toffee Pennys, Caramel Swirls, and any other favorites. And to top it off, they can even add their own name or the name of a lucky recipient for that extra special touch. But alas, this year, the tradition has come to an end, leaving fans disappointed and confused.
Social media was abuzz with fans expressing their disappointment and pleading for the return of the personalised tins. Some even shared their plans to include the tins in their Christmas gifts, only to find out that they are no longer available. And unfortunately, it's not a cruel joke – it's true. Quality Street's official account confirmed the change, but offered a limited edition Christmas 2024 tin and pouches as alternatives.
The limited edition tin pays homage to the brand's Halifax heritage, where the sweets are still produced today. And while personalisation may not be an option this year, John Lewis is still offering the unique experience of customizing the contents of your Quality Street tin. And for special occasions, there are pouches with messages like "Quality Christmas" to choose from.
Thankfully, the pick n' mix option is still available in participating stores. However, fans are advised to act quickly to secure their favorite flavors before they run out. And it's clear that the personalised tins hold a special place in the hearts of Quality Street fans, as many shared their past experiences and fond memories of filling up their tins.
So, for those who were looking forward to personalising their own tin this year, it's time to adapt to a new tradition. And for those who haven't tried it yet, there's always next year. After all, it's not just about the tin – it's about the joy and excitement that comes with the tradition of indulging in Quality Street chocolates during the festive season.
