    I would agree with the hot choc sachets, cadburys do a twin pack, which I think is 33p from Asda.
    Asda and Morrisions have had galaxy and malters sachets 5 for £1.

    It may sound daft but be worth trying a few sachets out 1st.

    I don't drink hor milky drinks, but I use normal cadburys hot chocolate, make with hot water and add milk, - just thinking you could pre-mix cadburys choc with whitner, and be ready for use. xx

    Some useful suggestions - thank you. Do supermarkets sell individual sachets -

    Yes, but they're expensive compared to buying in jars (or catering-sized canisters off ebay)

    Pound shops often have vending-machine style cups with powder in (£1 for 10).

    If you know any old fashioned photographers, the 35mm film canisters probably hold about the right quantity for a large mugful.
    A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.

  • I bought some Skinny Cow stuff on a whim at the weekend; you only use two teaspoonsful per mug and it's pretty good! I top it up with milk anyway but it's really tasty.
    They call me Dr Worm... I'm interested in things; I'm not a real doctor but I am a real worm. :grin:
