My mom usually hangs up a pocket calendar and "every day the elves put something in the different pockets" (It has 24 pockets)
That's cool!
Yo! When I was little, my mom used to do that too!
My mom did that too when i was a kid
My Dad did that too😊
We had those too, and usually it was just notes like "Clean your room!" 😂
"You just shoved it straight in your mouth!"
"Should I have bought it dinner first?"
😂😂😂
I'm suprised that there isn't a cookie calendar in Finland because we have so long cookie selves in stores! I think that Domino could do one because they have so many different flavours these days!
I did not think that Cad tests videos could get any better but i was wrong, this is so nice video 🎄😊
haha thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
My mom used to make us a kids calendars from tea bag wrappers and we would find exciting stuff like gum and small pictures from them :D. Always wanted a chocolate calendar instead but now I've grown to appreciate her effords!
I am tempted to make a calendar for my boys - some days there will be candies, some days it'll be money, and some days they will reveal some tasks and chores to complete.
I just remembered one of my childhood calendars! It was santa claus shaped cardboard calendar and there was little string in it, when you pulled it the santa moved his feet and hands! 😍 Surprises were soft stickers.
I think we had one too!
My all time favorite were regular chocolate calender that had Asterix & Obelix in the cover 😄.
Didn’t know there were so many cute (and delicious) calendars in the shops. 😋 I actually love the Halva salmiakki cars.
Halva one looks so good! The desing is top-notch.
Molemmilla hiukset lyhentyneet siitä, kun viimeksi olen nähnyt! Näytätte jotenkin nuoremmilta! Söpöiltä.. 😊😍
I agree with you, I really love the cheap chocolate calendar its so nostalgic :D its not really a christmas without one
Thank you so much for the taste test! It was so sweet and Christmassy. Love the little banter between you, too! I am probably going to buy the Lindt one, I am a huge fan of Lindt chocolate. For my partner I plan to get one with fishing tackles, please, don't tell him!
Nice! Thank you, enjoyed this one 😍
Last year I had the original fazer calendar and I loved it! This year me and my bf, we went for kinder and kitkat calendars! 🥰
Nice! Dang, should have got a kitkat one too! I loooove KitKat
Speaking as a student, a Christmas calendar on the wall would be a huge flex. You just need to empty it first so your flatmates won't eat it
Kinder MaxiMix(the house-shaped one) is my go-to if I don't go for the "cheapo kids calendar".
You get perfect mix of most Kinder mainline products, including the Eggs.
I’ll be getting the Fazer Patukat calendar, had it last year and have to have it this year too 😅
Maybe you could get the picture one from the scouts for Leo. Or the Lego one. Or make your own. Who says it needs to be candy?
I had last year aftereight Big Ben -calendar. They sell it this year too. If you go for aesthetics, that's totally cutest one around 🙂 Out of the ones in the video, I would be interested of the Lind one most, I think. That's awesome chocolate, even if it's not the cheapest out there. Also Kinder one is nice and more Christmasy than just pure advertisement (which cannot be said from all calendars out there...)
Loved this! 👌🏻
I remember being 8 or 9 and getting halva's salmiakki calendar. Also remember not eating half of them because it was too weird for my childlike taste palette😄I did share it eventually with my parents
The moment I saw the thumbnail I dropped everything else I was doing and clicked PLAY😆
I got a tea calendar from pukka as an early birthday present, so that will be the one for this Christmas season. I find it funny how Finns drink the most coffee of the entire world and here I am being a Finn but only drinking tea due to being way too sensitive to the caffeine. 😅😝
My partner and me also got the pukka calendar and a Yogi Tea one, so there is one for both of us but still can change flavours if we want to xD
I drink Tea too and I am a Finn too.
Cad: "I'm gonna rate everything a higher than the Cadbury"
Also Cad: "PANDA!? 1/5"
I've kinda lost my interest for commercial calendars, well, commercial... So I bought this christmas calendar that has numbered cotton pouches. It's kinda like wall rug. But the thing that intrigues me most is that you can put anything there. I mean chocolates of course, but there's few bigger pockets that can fit a beer... etc. :)
A beer calendar?! Now we're talking!
@@davecad you can actually buy beer advent calendars! 24 beers, typically from small breweries
13:19 - Balls, double balls, milk balls, teddies, Decks. Sounds like to me this one is for adults only xD I laughed so hard oh my
My son (already 18 years of age) loves those cheapest plain old fashion chocolate calendars. Last year he ate like 15 of them before 24th day LOL! You missed one important calendar from the taste test, The Fazer Bars Christmas Calendar. I think I'll get that for myself this year.
As it is somewhere around 4 decades since I was a child of the age to have an advent calendar (bought by parents as a "usual" xmas thing), my memories might be dusty, and I do not have experience of what kinds of calendars there are available today. So the basic calendar was perhaps one that has just pictures behind the doors, and that is OK. But I think the candy calendars were never really much more exciting. I mean you can just get the candies at a store any day of the year your parents allow it. BUT I remember there were a couple of really interesting ones that I had. One had some kind of miniature "sculptures" made of glass that were all unique and quite intricate. Another one had the "good old" Kinder-type surprises that were usually small plastic "puzzles" that you had to assemble. I say "good old" because at some point the Kinder egg surprises seemed to all have changed to be just stupid character models of some cartoon franchise or other, no assembly, no fun. So in my childhood there were at least three types of advent calendars: the plain pictures-only, the chocolate/candy ones and the more interesting items/puzzles ones :)
I bought that Kinder calendar from Prisma (5,95e) i thought it was good price-taste-ratio!!! Love the kinder chocolate so much!
Kinder chocolate is underrated IMO. It may not be "high quality" in that connoisseur kind of way, but I don't care. I only care that it tastes good 🤤
This video reminded me that I must go fetch my own calendar soon before the stores run out of them!!
Christmas calendars are the best, especially Kinder and Fazer are my favourites😋🍫
sooo cool video! One of my favourite
I got the Elovena porridge calendar this year
I got really excited about the white chocolate one since it is the only chocolate type my stomach tolerates. But plain white chocolate is bleghhh but if there are nuts or salmiakki in it it is a treat. :)
My sister had the m&ms calender last year!
Heloy.
Thanx for the MERRY MERRY nice video!😘💕
That Moomin-calendar is very good for young babies and those Who are allergik to Milk. 😊
I get my hubby a Peters Time Machine- action calendar for father's day present. He needs to solv what door to open every day. 😄😄😄
I think I'll need to check that Moomin calendar. Dairyfree and glutenfree diet is so restrictive, but maybe I could get one of those.
would like to see a video with Roni Back as a guest!
There's ice cream advent calenders too. Haven't seen those before. Over 20€ though, so I'm probably not going to try it eventhough it's a Finnish brand (can't remember who's it is, you can get them from Prisma though).
Cat is funny! ❤️ This was a good one!
Haha yes she is 🤣 glad you enjoyed the video 🙂
Thankfully I didn´t get that fruit muumi calendar to my kid. I got her the nostalgic story book calendar which has only little books in it. My daughter loves books, so that is perfect for her and she is so young she shouldn´t be eating choholate too much. Thankfully there is where to choose from. :)
Oh, my ocd brain is screaming watching you open the calenders before December 😅 Made me want to go advent calender shopping though! 😁
Maybe try every Christmas a different chocolate calender and after Christmas month you give the rating after tasting one christmas door every day while waiting Christmas Eve? 😊🎄 Though that way you give away what the other doors have to the viewers so maybe this way is better after all. 🤔
My favorite is the Haribo one you didn't have on this video. I'm lactose intolerant and it's one of the only calendars I can have. I also love haribo gummy bears 🐻
Tää on niin hyvä video
i got salmiakki calendar, its 6/5 and this year i got it early and local supermarket is sold out salmiakki calendars already :P
Thanks for this, as I was struggling in deciding what to buy as there is so huge selection now at stores 👍😅
It's crazy how many there are! Hope this helped even a little!
I didn't end up buying a calendar last year😕 The year before I had the Halva salmiakki one😋 Delicious.
We used to get 2-4 cheap chocolate calendars "per nenä" as kids, from mom, and dad, and sometimes either of the grandmas or a "kummi". Someone always got a different calendar for the others' envy, lika a Kinder or a candy calendar. I don't mind The Calendar Chocolate, but wouldn't buy it for myself...
I remember sometimes the chocolates were a different shape than the pic in the cheap calendars😂 We compared their orders to figure out which calendars had the same pic backing, the same choc shape plastic, was there a correct backing for these "wrong" choc shapes and vice versa😆😁 Sometimes there was just one particular shape that was the same idea (like a santa or a bell) but the backing pic was slightly different (just a head vs whole body, 2 bells vs 1)...
For this year, I'm intrigued by the Lindt you tried, and different Fazers, or maybe a tea calendar🤔🤔🤔 Or maybe I'll make my own, I had a felt pouch calendar (might have gotten lost though). The price would certainly be a lot better in a DIY calendar😆
I kept expecting the tea and the porridge.
Dave face expression when Kat mock Cadbury 😂
I don't know if its that I'm partly english but I don't think cadbury chocolate is that bad. I actually love the caramel and caramilk cadburys. Also buttons.
I have the m&m eith friends calender. I love it! I have it every year hehe😆
I must say I'm quite thrilled to have joulukalenteri this year since my wife got the suklaalakukalenteri by halva. I'm whole lot into those balls.
The thing with having grown up with these cheaper 2-euro calendars is that nowadays about 95% of all calendars just feel so miserable with no pictures under the chocolate part.Sure you get a nice chocolate but then it's just a blank hole/cardboard wall you see after you leave the calendar door open. Why won't they add pictures. :'D At least Marabou had the chocolates in different shapes, got that this year.
Cad Bury's 🤭 I agree with Cadbury being a lot worse than one would think... It was a weird experience 🙈 Fazer for the win, always 😍💪🏻
I just wait that the Vanta’s church sends the calendar with beautiful messages in Finnish 😂😂😂 then I spend 10 minutes trying to translate what it says
Oh dear now I have a chocolate calendar envy 😬 (born in the early 70s and bought myself a moomin calendar with tiny moomin figures for 35€ 😂)
Oh but that's very cool!
I havent decided which calender i should buy this year.. And now im even more confused 😂. I think that Pukka calender would be nice.. I dont like those regular chocolate calenders.. That chocolate its just no good..
4:49 I can’t🤣🤣🤣
😅😏
Did you happen to know: an advent calendar starts on the first advent (this year 27.11.), not on the first of December like western Christmas calendars?
I got Nestle Smarties calender this year. Last year i have M&M's calender. 😋👍❤️🍫
So they get more chocolate on UK! Since they have december 25th
This was waited for😁
I'm glad to hear it!
Yiu should have gotten the Elovena porridge calendar. That is someone so finnish lol
Nice video Dave!
Thank you! Although the credit goes to Cat as she starred AND edited this one 🙂
@@davecad Okay😆 great editing from Cat👌
No Fazer Patukat joulukalenteri?
I've never heard of Galak, but apparently it's known as Milkybar in the UK.
Ahhh that makes sense... And is a bit sad. Milky bar was one of my favourites! This didn't taste anything like I remember!
Isn't milkybar the same as a Mars bar
@@munkayttaja6913 I think you're thinking of Milky Way.
@@NearCry91 yea
😍 Hah, this is fun
I have the panda one. 😁 Kinder calendar is always a good choice. 👍🏻
Last year I had the fazer chocolate bar calendar and I was so disappointed. 😞
I would love to test ice cream and chips calendar's. 🍦🍿
Wait... there's an icecream calendar?! 🤤🤤
@@davecad yes there is! I don't know how many brands have ice cream calendar but this year I have seen calendar from Vanhan Porvoon jäätelötehdas. 🍦
1:44 I definitely wouldn't say them being individually wrapped as being a good thing. That's just more plastic waste.
Absolutely! That was Cat's issue with it.
thank you for trying all of them so i don't have to :D
Mamachica 💀😂
💃🤦
Maybe in next video, u should taste candy with ur motherafter that with dad and then with sister. After those u should taste chips with ur sister and mother and dad. Then with everybody,that would be awesome,its so cool to taste candy!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
Wow 😁👌
how much were the mailing cost from UK?
All of these were bought from shops in Finland (Citymarket, Tokmanni etc.)
You should’ve tested the Lindts vegan one!😊
Please bring back "reacting to finnish music" series
I'd love to, but the whole copyright issue is a mine field!
@@davecad ohh man, that's shame😪
tehkää parillisina päivinä joulukuussa mitä tulee esim 3 ja 4 pv... jne
Panda 🐼 shot down 😳😅
Sorry, Kat, I do love cadbury as well! Just keep the foul American "chocolate" away from me.
I agree! It's basically cardboard :D
Check the sugar content of the Marabou chocolate and compare it to Fazer 🙄 Then you know the difference 🙄
Ooooh I can imagine!
Mites Piltti kalenteri 😅
10+€ for 65g of chocolate, damn that's good value 👌 😂
Haha good point! 😅
joulukalenterit are good in finland
There's a huge selection. We barely scratched the surface with this video!
If it has soy, nuts or milk I can't eat it ☹️.
Now that's sad.
CHICA CHICAAAAA!!!
'
Whatever you buy, don't give Nestle any of your money.
For a Christmas calendar video this had way too many innuendos. Or maybe it's just me..?
🤷♂️😅
You guys are missing callendars...atleast one and its Kouvolan laku.
There are so many! 😅 If I bought any more I'd have to sell a kidney. Maybe next year!
@@davecad this should totally be a yearly series! The comments have already mentioned SO many you should try, enough for the next 3 years at least😆
FCK you Dave🤣 Lakritsi oli paras 😋 Kiitos mainioista videoista😊
Haha 🤣🤣🤣 cheers for the dono!
Early!!
Noo, it's marraskuu❄️ Christmas is coming soon!
These sell out super early so the timing's just right.
😊😊
Those cheap chocolate calendars are so awful but we all got indoctrinated as children so we crave it anyway 😂
🐒
9:50 It is NOT CHRISMAS YET! Please stop before you even start!
It's a hard job but someone has gotta do it! xx
Thank you for sympathising with us! 😁😁
Was looking at some calendars in Prisma today and uh... I’m afraid to ask how much you spent on all of those 🥲
I stopped counting at 150€... too depressing 😂
