Edible Xmas gifts that can be made well in advance.....

This is probably not techincally "in advance" but I cant find the threads about gingerbread men... You know the perfect man ones
Can anyone help me out or give me a quick idea of when they can be done (never done them before so really no idea) and an easy recipe maybe?
On the look out for some suitable cello bags to put them in too if anyone has a fav seller?

I'm going to make a start on my flavoured vodka tonight, does anyone have any recomendations for how many skittles and wethers originals to put in per 100ml of vodka.

Thanks

Can't help with the skittles, but the werthers I'd say 12, make it really toffee and creamy - with a good kick back x

Can't help with the gingerbread man - but this is the seller I use on ebay for anything to do with celophane, ribbons and cello bags etc

the seller is nickschicks

I've popped a link into one size of bags he does - for gingerbread men you'd need a bigger size - but he does have a good selection and one of the cheapest on ebay x

Can help with the vodka at the mo - mine did that last yr, but I thought I'd done something wrong, so I called it "Toffee Layered Vodka" - went down a treat...
Done the same this yr - so doing the same "layered vodka".

The poems - I've put a request on the xmas thread I do, as I want them as well to add to the food hampers, so hopefully one of the lovely ladies will come to the rescue, so will copy across xx
