    May I join in please.

    I usually do table presents at Christmas, but I will be doing the chocolate sleighs this year, they are gorgeous, and look easy as well.

    I love the preparation leading up to Christmas

    I couldn't find chocolate the right size for my sleighs so ended up wrapping mini smarties packs, when I saw the reindeer I just had to having him pulling the sleigh- I stuck them on a box covered with cotton wool so it looked like he was pulling the sleigh through clouds, my son loved it so much that he didn't want to undo it and eat the chocolate!
