lol i dont have a sainsburys nearby either! i can easily get 2 tescos, morrisons and sainsburys @jacksons but these 3 dont stock them x

I got mine in Tesco and also Morrisons. You find them in the baking aisle not the sweets and chocolate aisle. Hope this helps a little. xxx

Hi,

that's roughly the same size as the ones I used - they were 18cm x 37 cm.

I've finished making my snowman soup now, and wondered if anyone had actually made one up as a test. My son and I did yesterday, but neither the chocolate drops or marshmellows melted, and just formed a 'gloupy' mess at the top of the mug. Has anyone else tried and had success with the chocolate and marshmellows melting?

I did a test as I was worried I wouldnt have enough for 2 cup fulls...anyway I used cadburys chunks and Jullian Graves marshmellows (prob the most expensive but all I could get!!) plus Mr T's choc drink, I think the trick is to put in just a few chocs, stir lots then add the marshmallows, the trouble with the soup is I was quite generous with my mellows and chocs so hopefully they arent all used in one mug full!!!
