    :rotfl:wait until you taste them nomnom!!! i used bournville cocoa powder first but found it to be too bitter, the green and blacks have a chocolate called maya gold which has an orange tint and i think that would be great to use (might have to go into work to get a bar to try:o) i am going to make these for christmas presents as i think they would go down well!

    when your making salt dough are you better to use food colouring or paint the dough once dried? im planning to do this at the weekend as i didnt have time last week.

    Caz salt dough depends on how strong you want the colour, painting after will give a brighter finish
    Maya gold would be lovely for Christmas truffles because it's got a bit of spice in it too :)
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
