Thread bought marshmallow onto skewers, drizzle with melted chocolate. When set, wrap individually in cellophane, with a label suggesting that they can be used as 'stirrers' for coffee or hot chocolate.perfect for the kids to make, or help with.

A s a christmas food gift idea I have made a pavlova, bought cream, kiwfruit to go with it, and wrapped it up kiwi themed, and plan to give it to afriend who is a new migrant to NZ from China,along with a "voucher" for a free pavlova cooking lesson. Helps her english too! You could do the voucher idea for all sorts of things.

We bottled hubby's 'secret' BBQ sauce/marinade this year. Great for the grilling season and everyone always raves about it :-) Also made ginger stained glass cookies, little individual parcels wrapped in cellophane.
