50 Christmas messages, greetings and wishes for everyone this holiday season
“Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.” 10 words, no effort. And everyone on your list has read it 3 times before they get to yours. Mehhh.
Christmas + holiday wishes – the Tony’s way
So the rule for everything below is simple: keep it real.
1. Happy Whatever-You’re-Celebrating-This-December
2. Season’s greetings – minus the small talk.
3. You’re the best, bar none
4. Last Christmas I gave you my heart. This year, this.
5. Wrapper’s Delight
6. SO CHUNKING GOOD
Christmas + festive wishes for friends
The best friend messages sound like something you’d actually say. Start with one of these and swap in the bit only the 2 of you would get.
7. Yule always be my bestie.
8. Grinch, please!
9. I was gonna send you a 10-min voice note..
10. You know too much. Here’s a bribe.
11. Still the first person I text.
12. Another year of putting up with each other.
Put it on a personalised Christmas bar with their name on the front and let the message do the rest.
Christmas + festive messages for family
Families are like fudge – mostly sweet with a few nuts in between. Give ’em a bar that will make ’em smile..
13. this clause for a celebration
14. 1 bar. 6 of us. It’s giving Christmas.
15. Sharing is caring.
16. So who gets the last piece?
17. Thanks for the year + the noise + the roast.
18. You lot are the best
Put it on a bar from our Christmas chocolate range. 1 message, 1 table, no one left out.
Christmas + festive greetings for your partner
Be specific or be quiet. “Love you lots” is what you say on the phone. Pick one of these and add something you’d never say out loud.
19. You’re wrong about Die Hard (and I love you anyway)
20. 10/10
21. Still on Santa’s naughty list?
22. Best year yet, and mostly your fault.
23. You + me + this bar + nowhere to be.
Overthink this one. It’s allowed.
Christmas + holiday greetings for colleagues and coworkers
Keep it simple. Thank them for one real thing, then stop.
24. You made those unbearable meetings bearable.
25. Eat. Work. Feast. Repeat.
26. DESK-CHOC (for 3pm emergencies)
27. Out of office. In choc-mode..
28. 2026: that’s a wrap!
If your office does a Secret Santa draw, any of these will get the job done.

1 message, the whole team, nobody singled out.
29. We crushed it!
30. There is no i in choco
31. Log Off. Properly.

Our custom corporate Christmas gifts carry a logo and a message on the same wrapper, which saves you writing 40 cards.
Christmas wishes for a teacher

44. Teacher of the year!
Our chocolate gifts for teachers are the right size for a thank-you that isn’t over the top.
funny Christmas messages for anyone
Funny Christmas messages are the ones people photograph. The trick is that the joke has to make them smile right off the bat, so nobody reads it twice and wonders what you meant.
45. Something to eat that isn’t turkey.
46. Try not to get left behind this year.
47. Dark at 4pm? Yule be fine.
48. Bought this for you. Nearly ate it myself.
49. Holy fudge!
50. CHOCO CHEERS
Any of them fit a personalised bar, which is the only Christmas card people finish.
2 wishes, 1 bar
Here’s the bit that makes a Tony’s message different from a card. Every Tony’s bar is unequally divided because the chocolate industry is unequally divided.
So a message on a Tony’s bar carries 2 wishes. There’s the 1 you write for the person holding it. And there’s 1 carefully wrapped up inside: for you to join us! We exist to end exploitation in cocoa, which means fighting poverty, child labour and deforestation in cocoa. By enjoying our chocolate, you’re joining our sweet movement for change. Bar by bar, bite by bite. Until we change the industry, together. So what do you say.. Are you in?
what (else) to write in a Christmas card
If you wanna write your own ho-ho-holiday messages, keep these pointers in mind:
- say their name
- focus on 1 message
- keep it short (or at least as short as possible)
- and after you write it, read it out loud.. if you wouldn’t say it in a pub, write it again
Ready to start making your own chocolate wrappers? Our Christmas templates come both ways: some designed for you to fill in, others blank to build from scratch..
Write it, wrap it, done. And if you wanna pair their personalised choc with even more goodies, our Christmas gift ideas are right next door.
