    I have never made this before so cant tell you. but i seem to remember people saying that they have cut the cello cones down to the size they would need.Just remember that the inner cone would be cut shorter than the outer cone.
    Good luck

    If I wanted to give these as Christmas gifts how early could I make them bearing in mind what someone wrote about the marshmallows staying fresh. Thanks!

    marshmallows go dry pretty quickly i think so I wld do the bottom of the snowmans soup first and then not add in the marshmallows etc in till a couple of days before hand.
  • Just found this website for Cellophane cone bags, which are a reasonable price - http://www.polybagstores.co.uk/white-368-c.asp

    Just adding my pics here for anyone who's making these this year and to give you ideas! :D

    Having the printed mugs pushed the price up a bit but I think it makes them extra special :D There are no other mugs the same in the world! ;)
