Flourgirl help!!!! I have made some ES puddings but they have slipped off the card pieces overnight as I didn't store them flat. Just used double sided tape (cheapo one from the Works ). Worried that when I put them in the bags they will all slide to the bottom of the pack or even worse they will slide off peoples trees. Don't want to feel the wrath of lots of people over Xmas:eek: What do you use please to attach the card to the foil wrapper?

Oh I feel silly now. I thought flourgirl had made the mints herself, not that they were bought ones

Love the choc bars! What are chipboards though, I am guessing they are the pictures which are lovely but no idea what they are!

Dizzytina - Those are fab, I've been in two minds as to do my snowman soup in cones this year or use sachets of hot choc in a cello bag, looking at yours I think i've just made my mind up. They look really effective, what have you put in the bag?

Can I be cheeky and ask if i can have a copy of your label?

I haven't tried it yet but I have bought some magnetic photo paper which I am going to cut up. Looked at tape in Hobbycraft and it was really expensive. Will let you know how it goes!
