Chocolate Santa champagne – 125g

The large champagne-colored chocolate Santa Claus from Fesey Chocolate Figures

The champagne-colored chocolate Santa Claus from Fesey Chocolate Figures is a 125-gram hollow figure wrapped in foil between rose, sand, and pale antique gold. The tone shimmers rather than shines, allowing it to blend into any table setting.

Champagne-colored chocolate Santa Claus is the large edition of the most understated shade offered by Fesey Chocolate Figures. The milk chocolate beneath contains at least 37 percent cocoa, and the molding and wrapping take place in Riemerling, near Munich. On light linen, the figure almost disappears until the light hits the coat at an angle.

As a small gift for an Advent dinner, it is the most polite choice because it does not impose a color scheme on the host. If you are invited to someone's home for the first time, you won't know their table colors, and this tone goes with everything. For the whole table, the 70-gram champagne-colored Santa Claus works just as well.

A shimmer that fits into any guest's table

In the afternoon sun, the foil looks almost beige, while under warm lamp light, it shifts clearly toward rose. Next to silver, the paper looks warm; next to copper, almost pale; and on dark wood, it retreats entirely. This versatility makes the figure the calmest appearance in a collection that otherwise features bold pinks and oranges.

Because the tone remains so understated, the embossing underneath stands out all the more clearly. The beard hangs down to the chest, the hood falls low over the face, and the sack pushes the shoulder forward. At the place setting next to the napkin, the figure incidentally becomes a place card as soon as a handwritten name is placed beside it. From two meters away, you primarily see the outline; from up close, the drape of the folds.

Milk chocolate with a mild creamy note

Beneath the foil, mild milk chocolate awaits with a distinct creamy tone and no bitter edge. Children eat it without fuss, while adults break it off more thoughtfully and take their time with the rest. The thin wall softens quickly at room temperature, and a piece melts on the tongue rather than breaking dryly.

Alongside mandarins and nuts, this mildness holds its own without detracting from the other items on the plate. Those who store it in a cool, dark place can easily maintain the delicate shimmer until the final week of Advent. Placed over a radiator, the smooth surface loses its luster within a few days. For coffee after a meal, the head is sufficient; everything else can be tucked back into the foil.

How to break a hollow figure cleanly

Hollow figures break differently than bars because the wall is equally thin everywhere, and there are no grooves to indicate where to proceed. Therefore, start at the top of the hood and work your way down so that the base remains intact until the end.

A short press with the thumb is perfectly sufficient for this; a knife is not needed anywhere. If you chill the figure briefly beforehand, you will get clean edges instead of soft ones, because cold chocolate breaks while warm chocolate gives way. It is best to leave the foil underneath as a tray for the remainder. If you find the pieces the next day, simply wrap them back up in it.

Here you will find every figure from Fesey Chocolate Figures, from the small star to the Easter bunny, plus all sorts of chocolate figures. If you are still looking, you will find what you need among our other small gifts.
