    Well done to you. Just shows that amazing things can be done with a bit of careful planning.

    hi yes it is similar to the one skintchick wrote but I didn't use fruit in it only digestive biscuits, cocoa, margerine, golden syrup and I added coconout since I don't like raisins but you could add nuts or anything else and then you just cover it with chocolate and chill and then the best part:eat it!;)
    hmmmmmmmmmmm it is really nice
    p.s did a quick search and found out that 'tiffin' is an Anglo-Indian term for lunch or afternoon snack
