how about in a special christmas bowl if they are small individual ones.
or on a christmas plate.
in coloured cellophane.
in a box with a small jar of brandy for lighting, a tin of cream (am i the only one who liked evaporated milk with xmas pud?)Cats don't have owners - they have staff!!

From Poundland, I got 20 cello bags which were see-through but had litle gold stars printed on - some of which were solid, some just the outlines and there were 20 pieces of about half-inch-thick gold ribbon to tie them.
They weren't in Christmas section but with the general wrapping stuff.0 -
In a bag, then in a christmas tea towel, tied at the top with ribbon and a wooden spoon tag.0

I've got some cello bags I bought from Lakeland a couple of years ago, I think they have toy soldiers on them !! I'm going to pop the puds in one of these, wrap with ribbon and get my 7 year old to handwrite a tag - I know his grandparents will treasure that bit the most

I put mine in a plain bag then wrap bag in Hessian material and tie at top with a nice red ribbon tied into a bow. They look really nice and I have sold them like this at craft fairs to and always get good feedback0
