Just to add, I bought some Options choc for my dieting friends(!) which needs making up with hot water. So for anyone who wanted a water version of my ode, here it is!:

This Snowman Soup is just for you -
Three spoons per mug (there's enough for two)
Just add hot water, stir it up
And then - before you drain the cup -
Sprinkle with the chocolate chips
Give a stir with the Snowman stick
Top off with marshmallow snow
And give your heart a Christmas glow!

Feel free to substitute 'Snowman stick' for 'candy stick' if necessary! Happy Christmas everyone!

These all look so fab! I've searched everywhere for a direct recipe but I can't seem to find one anywhere? And all the ones on google are very.. americanised. Could anybody please provide me with a very simple recipe to follow?

Thanks Fiverqueen for the poem. That will be just what I need.
My printer isn't working so I am going to try and write it very neatly on snowman Christmas tags

OOOOH what date in march? my Aiden is the 6th which was mothersday. people are constantly spelling Aimee's name wrong I didn't think that it was that unusual but i obvioulsy think it's very pretty. her middle name is georgia after my nan and she very nearly got that as her first name but we preferred Aimee when we saw her.

I'm in Ipswich too, and need some more candy canes. Did you find any locally, to save me a bit of time looking?

I have used the clear disposable icing bags - they work fine
