    Well done, but seriously - what's that peppermint bark mould all about?!

    Melt and layer white and dark chocolate and layer with crushed sweeties in a festive mould = quick and pretty hamper item for Christmas :)

    That would be no good for me. Not very confident with things like that, so there would be too much quality control :whistle:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
