Im looking to make snowman soup for the first time and i have no idea where to start!
This may seem like a silly question but what is everyone putting the soup into? a cellophane bag, is it square or triangle?

Thank you in advance to anyone that can help me

i make mine using cone shaped bags bought from ebay, some people use square bags and others make their own bags.

i use one bag for the hot chocolate and tie the top, i put this cone bag inside another cone bag and top with choc chips then marshmallows

Can someone please let me know how much you charge for snowman soup at craft fairs etc?
A lot of people are asking me to make them and don't know how much to charge. Thanks in advance :-)

i sell mine for £1.50 each and sold out and had to take orders, but it depends on how much it costs you to make, mine cost me 54p each

There are lots on ebay, some have made them up with a sachet of hot choc

Hiya I've just sold quite a lot at a craft fair for £2 each, I used the cone bags and lots of curly ribbons! attracted a lot of attention and went down really well, I had the poem attached also and it was laminated, was quite impressed with how they turned out but I managed get £2 each as it cost me a bit more to make them I have seen simpler versions sold for £1.50 tho and they looked fab also!

I put 4-5 teaspoonfuls in each of my cones

Hello there's a lot to wade through so sorry if this has been answered before. Does anyone make their own cellophane cones and if so how do you seal them at the bottom? TIA x

Can I start making these now? Will they last till xmas (thinking crispy marshies) ?

Also if any of you would be kind enough to let me know if I can also make my poop bags up or will the chocolate not last?

Thank you x
