You can pick and mix your own Quality Street box this Christmas

When Christmas rolls around, there's nothing quite like the Christmas chocolate on offer is there?

Whether you're after the huge tubs of Celebrations, boxes of Roses or you're more of a Quality Street fan, there's plenty to choose from.

Yet when Christmas is over and we get to New Year, there's always a few lone chocolate treats left out as nobody fancies them.

Whether your household dodges the strawberry creams or shuns the green noisette triangles, there's always going to be something left at the bottom of the chocolate hierarchy.

But not this year.

This year, Quality Street have decided enough is enough with leftovers and bickering for the best out of the selection. Instead you can now pick and mix and build your own perfect tin of Quality Street.

So if you're all about the toffee fingers, country fudges and the caramel barrels that you can load up on them to your heart's content.

Shoppers can find the dedicated Quality Street pick and mix stations at John Lewis ahead of the festive season, with the Oxford Street store already up and running and other festive shops in John Lewis across the UK opening in the next fortnight.

For just £15 shoppers can fill a new 1.2kg tin to the brim with a choice of the 12 iconic chocolates. Or if you already have a Quality Street tin then you can fill that for £12.50. Or if you're after a great present idea then you can personalise a tin and then fill it up with a loved one's favourites for £17.

This year is extra special too, as the Coffee Creme which was discontinued almost 20 years ago has been brought back. Question is, where does it fit in the hierarchy of the best and worst Quality Street?
