    I have seen marmite crisps, biscuits, etc in Tesco. squeezy marmite. could you customise a marmite label?
    will have a think and see if I can come up with anything else.

    This would mean not cooking till xmas eve and maybe you've not the time but buy some puff pastry sheets, 2 in a pack. Spead the whole thing over with marmite enough to taste (more than you would a sandwich) but warm marmite does run and can ooze. Roll into like a long swiss roll shape, not tightly, run a bit of milk along seam to seal, put seam side down on a non stick baking tray and bake in oven to golden brown. Leave to cool on a wire rack. When cool slice with a sharp knife like a swiss roll. I just call it marmite pinwheel, when I do buffets everybody loves it. It's always first to go and I can't seem to make enough of it.
    Do a trial run before xmas. It's cheapish to make.
    It may be possible to freeze but I've not tried it.

    someone made a glass of guiness with black socks and white. if your going for handmade things what about an old (but CLEAN!) marmite jar stuffed with black socks in it. it would be an extra thing and could use £1 socks etc

    Hi

    How about downloading some the recipes from their website and making them up into a little booklet ?
    If not ... they sell merchandise on their website ... i haven't checked the prices out, but am presuming that things would be a bit pricey ...

    Here's the website ...
    http://www.marmite.com/

    or here ....
    http://www.ilovemarmite.com/marmite-links.asp


    Hope you find something ....

  • You can get the mini marmite individual thingys. I think I've seen them in the fridge section with the individual cheeses in the supermarket

    Don't get the marmite breadsticks. They are yuk and to me do not taste like marmite.

    Otherwise ebay is the place, marmite has done lots of promos over the years (the type where you collect tokens), I've got a marmite cool box and socks. So some people must sell these things online.

    Oh wow - can you stretch to £10? Theres a toast rack here:

    Very cool.

    I want the marmite toaster: http://www.pots-and-pans.co.uk/acatalog/Dualit_2_Slice_Vario_Bread_Toaster-Marmite.html

    It's just a little expensive though :)

    Just £10,852.28p to go...

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.
