Home made chocolate slabs

I also bought this from M&S for £2 and could be used as chocolate stirrers with hot milk, not unlike your green one Emms if you were to put a lollipop stick in the middle.

I was shopping today in ASDA and seen some of these flexible trays in the freezer section (obviously for making ice cubes) they were in sea shell shapes (they may have other shapes). I should have bought some and taken a photo of them to show you all! They were very reasonable too! About 75p!!!!

Ok, not heart shaped, but might suit someone!

I have managed to get a silicone cube tray from Tesco £1 & a heart tray from Sainsburys also £1.
Don't know what I didn't think of this before but we ought to have kept the trays from the advent calendars as these would have been useful moulds too.

I was in Sainsburys today & browsed the many variations of their chocolate slabs so plenty of ideas.
Also I mentioned on the finished baskets thread that Hobbycraft have all their cello card bags at half price. They have several sizes, tall, slim, sq, oblong etc ideal for packaging these slabs & ice tray offerings.

Over on the dfw board snaggles made her harry potter fan son a "Honeydukes" hamper for xmas. It was fab.

There is a description earlier in the thread of what sweets she used etc. I will post when I find it. I thought it was really unusual and inventive and would be great for harry potter fans of all ages;)

Would be good for faking those Belgium chocolates that are shell shaped

For those looking for the Goji (sp) berries that Quackers used....
