    Kim -thanks for the link. Think I'd prefer cream or some sort of 'natural' coloured socks to get the effect.
    OH came up with the idea of christmas pudding sock cakes but I couldn't work it out somehow so they looked like puddings..............lol
    Bit more time and experiment next year I think for that one.
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    I've just completed a 3-month test of these candles and will be making some for presents for my friends and family as well as selling them online. They are heavily scented and have a special wooden wick which crackles when you burn them.

    A video can be seen (and heard) here.

    Just wondered what you think of them?
