When would you start making fudge/cookies for pressies?

Just wondering when you would start making fudge and cookies etc. for presents for Christmas day, as hm stuff does not have the same preservatives as shop bought. While I am on this subject, how do you remove old labels from jars. Thanks

Old age isn't bad when you consider the alternative.

  • I saw somewhere on here, someone said if you keep it in an airtight container hm fudge lasts about a month, but I would say to just do it as near to the day as you can.

    As for labels on jars I would say to soak them in a sink of water until they just slide off. Not sure if it matters on the temperature of the water or not.
    Thanks to all those who post competitions! :T
