    Hot cross buns, would be quite light to post. Is it for children/adults?

    Adults thought of hot x buns but I wondered if there was any companies out there who do it all for you and send it?

    probably but loads cheaper to do it yourself I would've thought although depending on what you put in it could be v expensive to post.
    Couldn't you send some euros in an Easter card for them/him/her to go out for a meal
    along with some fave chocs or something?

    I can send 25kilos for £38 on a 24 hour delivery so I think I will pack a box up of my own goodies.
    Hot x buns
    Easter Eggs

    I think you're supposed to eat fish (maybe a nice piece of salmon if it's gonna be there in 24 hours) on Good Friday if you want to be traditional. There are also easter biscuits you could put in

    not in 24 hours. wrap the bottom of the stems in very wet kitchen roll and then put a plastic bag around it tying quite tight with an elastic band. They should be ok
