Sainsburys and Tesco both do a value/basics hot chocolate which I've bought - tasted it and I'm more than happy with that. I'm doing for a school fundraiser so my margins need to be good Poundland and Home Bargains have Cadbury's on offer at the mo for a 220g pot if you want to be posh!!
HTH?

I've made mine already!

I bought tesco hot chocolate. was just an average price. i must admit it didnt go as far as i thought it would but fortunately i had some in the cupboard. ours are for friends so i did make sure it was ok first as soemtimes they dont taste of anything! i found sainsburys awful previously!

They only had 99p bags at my B&Ms, will try another store, I'm also looking for choc chips if anyone has any suggestions?

My local Poundland had some snowman plastic tumbers. They aren't the prettiest ones, but they were 4 for £1, so you can't really go wrong.

I did see them last year, but didn't get them and then they sold out, so grab them as soon as you see them.
