The post arrives. The thump as it lands on the doormat is louder than usual so I run to check what has arrived. My eyes light up when I see a long thin cardboard box branded with a logo that I instantly recognise. My Montezumas Chocolate Club box had arrived.

I was quick to open the box to check what goodies lay inside. I found three sets of truffles, which were sat on three different flavoured solid chocolate bars. The idea is for lucky recipients to try out new creations before they go into the shops, if they make it that far.

Each month boxes are themed and the theme of my box didn’t take long to figure out. Eton mess, apple crumble and lemon meringue truffles sat on top of a milk chocolate bar with salted peanuts and butterscotch, a treacle tart milk chocolate bar and a dark chocolate bar with orange and whole hazelnuts. Being a huge pudding fan, this theme couldn’t have been better suited to me.

The boxes make perfect gifts and customers can choose between three membership options:

Rolling – £19.99 per month (can be stopped at any time)
Fixed length personal – £19.99 per month (payment taken monthly)
Fixed length gift (1 – 12 months) – £19.99 per month (payment taken in one go)

Not bad considering the boxes contain 600g of delicious hand made chocolates!
