mine, Carnation, is 397g

haven't seen the small ones for years

I don't think they do the small ones any more either, although there are tube type containers (think fat tube of toothpaste) now which I think are slightly smaller.

1sttimer, what have you started! I should be making ds's birthday cake this afternoon but I think he might just get a bag of tablet instead!

good thing you asked, imagine if you'd tipped a whole one of those in, not sure it would have turned out to be tablet, but I bet it would've tasted great just the same

I think a teacup is 6 fluid ounces

I'll go & check & report back ... if no-one else does first


EDIT ... yep, around 6-6 1/2 fluid ounces/just over175 ml (I hope that's right, not very good at metric ) it shouldn't be critical if it's a little bit out one way or the other, teacups do vary in size

right, have just checked my Dundee Homecraft Book (first published 1935) for the recipe I use & it's the same as jasmine's (but with 2 tsp vanilla essence)

anyway, it specifies 5 fluid ounces of milk & I know that amount works well

I have made a batch of tablet fudge to gift to peops over Christmas. I have cubed it and bagged it. Please can someone advise whether this is best kept in the fridge or elsewhere???;)
Thanks

Keep cool - no need to refridgerate.
Making some for my big brother at thew moment - he likes his with a quarter muscovado sugar!

As far out of sight as possible, if you want it to last over Christmas. My batch evaporated, and the family recon the tooth fairy was munching it

I am fundraising at a tabletop sale tomorrow and need a recipe for tablet which is firm, not fudge-y, and tastes wonderful! Hope this is the right forum for this request.
