All from Lidl though I couldn't find any chocolate.
If anyone knows that any of these aren't vegan or made by a company that she wouldn't buy from for ethical reasons, please let me know.
I also bought eight lemons, but forgot the vodka. :rotfl::rotfl:£2021 in 2021 no.17 £1,093.20/£20210 -

These vegan marshmallows!
They are pretty expensive but you do get a small bucket full, and the coconut ones are incredible, as are the strawberry.

Thanks moggymutt !
Some varieties of Booja booja chocolates are on offer at Planet Organic atm https://www.planetorganic.com0 -
Thanks Edwardia, That's a lot cheaper than my local health food store. I'll pass the link onto my DD as they deliver in her area of London. I think I'll use it to send her some food anyway and it would save her having to cart everything back down from sunny Yorkshire.£2021 in 2021 no.17 £1,093.20/£20210

I just bottled some Limoncello yesterday for my brother's birthday - ended up passing it through the unlined sieve twice to remove as much zest as possible - it clogs up the paper towel/filter paper so quickly it! Now bottled in 250ml bottles with brown string and green card tags ready to deliver tonight!"Does it spark joy?" - Marie Kondo

Thanks cherrypies,
She's only just started eating peanut butter and nuts etc. she never liked them before, but has made a big effort to eat them since becoming vegan. I will include some of these, but she does buy these already so they're not really luxury's for her.
I bought her some Moo Moo chocolate bars for her birthday, but I must admit that I thought it expensive at £2.75 for a smallish bar from our local health food store.
I'm hoping to find things in Aldi, Asda etc. at normal prices.
Fry's Cream bars, Jamiesons Rasberry Ruffles, Ruffle Bars, After Eight mints (the proper ones not the fancy selections) are all Vegan. Real Turkish Delight (check it's real made with cornflour and not the fake made with gelatine stuff).
some CoOp own brand, M&S and Siansburies wine is Vegan too, check labels.The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head. Terry Pratchett

Thanks, The problem I'm having is not everything is labeled and I can't remember everything that is snuck in our food without us know what it is, DD can pick up an item and have it back on the Shelf before I'm past the main ingredients .£2021 in 2021 no.17 £1,093.20/£20210 -
I have been low carbing for two years and then went organic in March. Up until then I waded through labels but eating organic food vastly simplifies the task of checking them.
The Vegan Society website has a page to tell you how to check whether food is vegan https://www.vegansociety.com0 -
I've so far found Lidl's mince pies
The other luxury item I would add to the hamper are some vanilla pods - as Edwardia pointed out a couple of weeks ago, Lidl were selling these at a v good price. I thought they would have sold out, but weren't placed with the baking goodies and there were stacks left.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!
