Meghan Markle's Montecito Magic: Duchess Unveils Luxury £112 Advent Calendar! ✨
Duchess Meghan launches a stunning £112 luxury advent calendar, inspired by her former Montecito home. Featuring Californian chocolates & a personal touch, this As Ever product ships exclusively in the US despite her rec
Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has delighted fans and luxury enthusiasts alike with the launch of her new advent calendar. Priced at £112 (148 dollars), this limited-edition product from her As Ever brand is a collaboration with Los Angeles chocolatier Compartes and draws inspiration from her former Montecito mansion in California.
The beautifully designed calendar features an illustration of her Californian home on the exterior and promises "A magical celebration of the season" inside. It contains 24 handcrafted chocolates, described as "thoughtfully inspired by our Montecito garden." Each piece boasts Californian flavors, including As Ever's signature strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, and orange marmalade spreads, a special chocolate with Meghan's flower sprinkles, and a rich dark chocolate ganache truffle.
Adding a personal touch, each chocolate is finished with its countdown number in Meghan's own penmanship, hand-painted in edible gold luster. Interestingly, this festive offering comes just over a month after the Duchess reportedly made a dramatic return to the UK with Prince Harry, six years after their move to the US.
Despite her relocation, the advent calendar and other As Ever products, such as flower sprinkles, jam, and wine, are currently only available for shipping within the US, making them inaccessible for direct purchase by her UK admirers.
This launch reflects a connection to her life and brand development during her time in California.
Promotional material for the calendar includes an image of Meghan smiling as she opens one of the numbered doors, sitting comfortably in a neutrally-decorated room. She also shared social media footage from June, captioned "Christmas planning in June," showing her driving a golf buggy alongside Compartes' chief executive Jonathan Grahm, hinting at the collaboration.
The footage also offered a glimpse of sketches of her Montecito house and the Sussexes' labrador, Pula, carrying an As Ever jam pot toy. #MeghanMarkle #AdventCalendar #Montecito #AsEverCollection
