Tasty sweet Christmas gifts help raise funds for Hong Kong’s less fortunate
Hotel offering personalised chocolates flavoured with caramel and thyme
At least one Hong Kong company is blending the allure of a unique personalised Christmas present this festive season with the opportunity to help a worthy cause.
A fundraising initiative by the Kowloon Shangri-La kicked off with a performance by a choir from the Singapore International School, followed by a Christmas tree-lighting ceremony in Tsim Sha Tsui East.
This year it will be selling personalised caramel and thyme-flavoured chocolates for just HK$168 (US$21.50) a box to raise funds for Operation Santa Claus.
Each box contains 10 pieces of chocolate, the first piece bearing the letter “I” and the second with a heart shape for “love”. Donors can fill the remaining eight pieces with names, words and emoticons of their choice.
