I can confirm that Twix and Stars comparing nicely for a PP today;)It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.

Agree with the need for magic stars recipes as it'd be good to make some use of them.
It'd be handy if we could give the bags away as small gifts, but as we need the codes we can't. Can anyone think of an acceptable way to give away the contents of 80 bags of chocolate without giving the actual bags away?
I emptied mine into celebrations tubs and gave them away. I have zero self control with open chocs, however I snaffled a few and they are ace on my porridge x0 -

Maybe tip the contents of each bag into a sandwich bag or something similar & tie with ribbon? I reckon family & friends would happily accept them? Who doesn't love free chocolate?
The other option would be bagging them up and giving them to a food bank but I don't know if they would accept them without a printed expiry date?"I expect to pass through this world but once.

Would that be yours or the 12 year olds?

:think: I don't know where the cake is ending up, could be either Hackney or Walthamstow. Very different areas. Also the child has an unspecified disability, so best not to offend.'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'0
