    You could try one of these - I just used lakeland as an example; you can get them elsewhere.

    Could you use a jam funnel? It's much wider than a normal one and is used for getting hot sticky jam into jars without it splurging everywhere.

    But you don't need to pay for one.
    Just cut the top all round off one of the 4-pint milk bottles, give it a good wash - it does exactly the same job for free..

    Hi Clara

    A measuring jug should do the trick perfectly :) I've merged this with the main food flask thread so you can see previous discussion and ideas

    thanks

  • Im am SO excited lol, I didn't know these existed!. Last winter i took normal flasks into work ( 3 in total at different times) the thermos smashed inside and the other 2 leaked, they were for tea and one of them made the tea taste funny also...Anyway, as i make alot of homemade soup/spag bols/casseroles I will give it ago. Just back from Tesco with one.

    Let us know how you go BB - I have been debating buying one but slightly put off as I've read the food tends to be luke warm rather than piping hot.
