The Feel-Good Season of Giving
At the heart of Purdys Chocolatier lies a deep commitment to giving back, embodied in their Purple Partnerships initiative, where they partner with charitable organizations to create meaningful, lasting impact.

Dear Santa Bar ($6)
Purdys Chocolatier’s best selling creamy milk chocolate bar with crunchy salted butter toffee.
$2 from every Dear Santa Bar is donated to a partnering children’s hospital foundation across Canada.
The Dear Santa Bar debuted in 2019 when Purdys Chocolatier discovered that the biggest worry for kids in hospitals during the holidays is that Santa might not find them. Moved by this insight, they created a special bar to bring a little magic and reassurance to those children.
