single cream?
... You could cut it into blocks and do an 'experiment' with different things. That's what I would do - but mind you I am incredibly boring and I am a scientist.
... oh know - here I go.
Condition 1. control - add nothing.
Condition 2. single cream
Condition 3. double cream
Condition 4. milk
Condition 5. water
Protocol
1) catch your tablet and kill it according to HO guidelines and local SOPs
2) break up tablet into equally weighted bits
3) melt slowing in a saucepan
4) add amount diluent as stipulated in the experimental conditions
5) cool for the same amount of time on a chilled dinner plate
6) test for viscosity by inverting plate over the head of nearest small child
7) inspect small child for signs of crumbs/stickyness
8) note results0 -
I don't have any useful advice.I just had to say that tablet is lovely,such a shame you don't like it!
Maybe you could mash it up and mix it up with a crumble topping?
Alternatively you could always take it into work/give to friends/ let me have it (please!)....:)0 -

I didn't think it would be long before someone was on saying it was lovely! I don't mind the taste, it's the texture just goes for my teeth!Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These

Break some up and crumble it through a nice vanilla ice cream, it is amazing. Nothing really brings tablet back after it seizes, if you really can't bear it, send me some, I made a huge batch for my sister's wedding yesterday, and managed to come home with noneIt's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your windowEvery worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory. - Ghandi0
