Choc Hazelnut spread from the EDC

[judydawn]

You almost snuck under the radar there Gaby. Thanks for your version and welcome to the forum.  Hope to hear lots more from you.  Where are you from

What a fantastic idea....although be prepared for the questions from the diligent teachers that now have to monitor lunch boxes on top of everything else they have to do especially if your child happens to call it Nutella as well lol I can just see it now

[Meagan]

Great I will try both of those options thanks

It will have to be called Tah-nella, not Nutella Kathryn.

haha good one jd!!

[faffa_70]

LOL very clever JD and I may just use that I think so my DS can take it for a change. Would be ok at the moment as his teacher know about TMX and is interested, though scared of the price! She is amazed at all the things he takes to school and NEVER sees a packet in his lunch box 

[judydawn]

Yes, there are definitely some good mums on this forum - and you are one of them Kathryn.

[brazen20au]

i send packets LOL not often and only to school, so i look like the packet mum at school but they're only allowed homemade at home lol

[Thermomixer]

I think she would - basically think she just used an equivalent amount of the tahini instead of hazelnuts (maybe a little less?)

Karen it is too hard with him, he has so many things that trigger his eczema (more than anything) so it is easier not to 

[brazen20au]

ahh fair enough. each weekend i ask R what he wants me to make, he tells me, i make it, he'll eat it when i've made it and then when i send it for recess i get told 'i don't like that one, please don't send it again' sigh

[faffa_70]

Yes I know that feeling, when the teens got to about 8 I think it was, I made them make their own lunches everyday (I have been called a horrible mother by many for many things lol) but it was purely for the fact that if they packed it they packed what they wanted and had no excuses no to eat it!! (oh and gave me a chance to hang a load of washing on the line before school and work lol)

Brazen and Faffa - Have you perfected this one?  Or still a work in progress?  It was one of the recipes that was pointed out to me at the demo as I had kids, but haven't tried it due to this post.

[brazen20au]

we are still going on that last batch, i only let my dd eat once a week LOL

[MollyGrubbles]

My consultant told me that apparently Tenina has tweaked this one to be better than the EDC.  One of the tweaks was using dark chocolate instead of milk, but I don't remember the rest.  Apparently the result was very similar to the real nutella.  I've e-mail my consultant to find out what the changes were.
