Many people second-guess the gifts they plan to give during the holiday season, so [Toblerone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-like-nobodys-watching) created a shoppable choir of "musical overthinkers" who sing rewritten Christmas carols that reflect the uncertainty and the anxiety of gift-giving. A lot of holiday advertising is centered on polished gatherings and perfect gifts, and this experience presents people with QR codes to purchase crowd-pleasing Toblerone Diamond Truffles.

"By reframing traditional carols to spotlight [...] common gifting doubts, we’re not making light of consumers but connecting with them through a shared experience," said Susanne Nowak, Senior Brand Manager, [Premium Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/von-payne-black), [Mondelez UK](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toblerone-never-square-campaign).

One festive classic, Deck the Halls, was turned into Wreck the Halls, a song centered on a couple miscommunicating what they really want to receive for Christmas.
