    Has anyone ever made the candy sleighs?

    I am struggling to find a UK version that doesn't use hersheys. Anyone any suggestions what to use instead? Think I may have to embarrass myself in the shop measuring all the mini chocolates against a kitkat :rotfl:

    I will report back on my findings :)

    While you are measuring all the mini chocolates against a kitkat, make sure you have a break. :D

    A Christmas with no one knocking on the door is starting to sound very appealing :)

    Hence why I've done it that way, for the last 6 Christmases.

    I love xmas cake,but I am the only one in the house who eats it. Thankfully my friend's hubby makes me a small one when he makes theirs. Have just bought three jars of robertsons mincemeat from tescos for 20p each. Ready for my mince pies.x
