Hi can anyone help, i want to make a hot chocolate set for my secret santa at work. I want to get a large cup, few sachets of hot chocolate and some other bits to fill it but not sure what. Anyone have any ideas?

my budget is £5

Thanks

    Have a look on my thread here, I made sets very cheap, you might find bits to add there.

    How about a little bag of marshmellows, one of those giant spoons or some yummy belgium chocs? I was thinking of making some of these for my cousins. The ones in stores are so expensive!

    A flake for crumbling over the top, scrummy.

    Some great cheap mugs in Sainsburys. I bought a robot one for my twelve year old foster child for £1.49, some hot choc sachets, some marshmallows and a box of '99' flakes.

    hot chocolate drinking blue mugs in wilkinsons 59p
    mini marshmallows in a bag 89p
    hot chocolate sachet 29p
    A spoon 30p each at wilkinsons
    Florist cellophane one sheet is 89p but you will not need it all and bow
    Total = £2.96 far cheaper than the shops and seen as you have so much left over you could add something else!! xxx

    You could even add a miniature of something naughty like Baileys to make it more special. Definately agree with the marshmallows. Mmm off to make a Hot Chocolate now!!
