chocolate pigs?

Mum's been reminiscing about having chocolate pigs in her stocking when she was a kid, so I thought I could try to make some for Christmas and don't know where to start.
Can you get little pig shaped molds anywhere (preferably on the high street) and can I use ordinary chocolate? And how do I stop it from sticking?
Can you tell I'm new to all this?:o

If I can buy them ready made I'll happily go for that! As long as they don't charge extortionate delivery charges.
Off to look at the thorntons site.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

Thanks but apparently they have to be proper pigs! They've got some cute marzipan ones on the same site though.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

I remember having sugar pigs and mice in my stocking - if you could get something like that you could maybe cover it in chocolate? linkie here to a sugar pig :cool:... don't throw the string away. You always need string!

I was just about to post about sugar pigs and mice and then i saw you had reminisced! I've never had a chocolate pig but the sugar pigs and mice used to last for ages, they were so hard to bite...used to have to kind of grind them down with my teeth, ever likely my teeth are knackered nowadays
