Wicked: For Good, the continuation of the story centered on the witches of Oz, has officially been released in theaters, and fans are keeping the excitement high by adding official gifts to their holiday wish lists and picking up products like the Wicked: For Good Advent Calendar by Compartés. This chocolate advent calendar features 24 doors with a handcrafted Compartés chocolate behind each one, and flavors created exclusively to evoke the essence of the movie's characters, setting, and themes.
