    I am working on flump [STRIKE]cra[/STRIKE] crepes I think that would be very posh with a grated white chocolate mice garnish :)

    This sounds like a top notch event MissL, I have plenty of curry/chicken 10p noodles if you can do something with them. :D:D

    Has anybody done anything interesting with their ambrosia rice.

    I've tried googling recipes but just get recipes for creamed rice, I can't think of any desserts I could make with it, but fruity ideas would work well to use up my fillers.
