Home made chocolate slabs

thanks to everyone who replied. I will have a look in Sainsburys and Woolies. We don't have a local Asda, the one we use is near to where OH works and that might spoil the surprise if I ask him to get them for me

would anyone use ice cube trays from a charity shop if they looked OK and had been well sterilised after purchase?

I cant find them in the Glasgow Ikea by the looks of the display I wasn't the only one looking. :laugh:
Couldn't find them in Asda either :rolleyes: will try one of the bigger shops.
Just noticed my teddy bear ice cube tray that I got in Ikea years ago, this will keep DH happy biting of heads and leaving me the bodies (I'm teddy daft) :laugh:

If they had them they should have been next to all of the valentine gifts.
If you don't have one I could try and get one and post it to you if you like?

For all of you who are making these slabs here's a quick recipe for rocky road slab - sounds yummy!!

2 bars of fruit & nut chocolate
4 bars chocolate coated turkish delight
200g marshamallows

Melt chocolate in microwave on low power; keep checking every 30 seconds.

Put Turkish delight & marshmallow into a large bowl, then pour the melted chocolate over and mix carefully.

Pour or spoon mixture on to a baking paper lined tray and chill for one hour before cutting into pieces.

mine came out brill, i put lil marshmellows in them and theyre lovely,
only problem is, it happens whenever i melt chocolate and re-cool, afterwards when you touch them they melt really quickly you it gets a bit messy, any way to stop that?

Had a go at making one of those twizzlerly stick choccie sticks (page 8) - with my xmas pressie chocolate treat maker (£14 from Whittards) and some easter bunnies on sticks and 2 hearts (1 shown, gave the OH to my OH this morning! :rotfl: )

Never done photolinks before, not sure how to do it! I may have to edit and tweak!...

You can get heart shaped ones for £1 in Ikea or Asda.

I noticed some in Homebase for £1.50ish (in the homeware department)

So, here is my image of the twizerly stick thing (mould from Paperchase):
