Darrel Lea is gearing up for an abundant Christmas, releasing six festive season products, including a limited edition Gingerbread flavoured block, pudding and rocky road.

The Darrell Lea Gingerbread Block features crumbled bits of spiced gingerbread biscuits mixed with milk chocolate.

With a light coconut nougat centre, the Darrell Lea Christmas Pudding is coated in milk chocolate, and topped with a Christmas holly, a great addition to any stocking or spread.

Using its original 1935 recipe with a twist of red and green jelly pieces, the Christmas Rocklea Road slab is hand-crafted with Darrell Lea milk chocolate, toasted coconut, peanuts and marshmallows.

Festive snacks in the Christmas spread include Darrell Lea’s Christmas Crunchy Balls, made from milk chocolate and encased in a crunchy shell, presented in red and green colours, and
Liquorice Strawberry & Apple treats.

Darrell Lea has also launched its Christmas Assorted Bullets Gift Box featuring a mixed selection of its famous Raspberry Bullets.
