DJ's in the UK aussiegal7 and from your name I think you might live in Australia ;D  If you can't find cellophane bags in the $2 or homeware stores here, you can always cut squares of cellophane to make your parcels.  Why not pop over to the introduce yourself section on the Home Page and tell us a bit about yourself, where you are from, how long you've had your Thermomix etc.

Bags from  here http://www.lakeland.co.uk/43471/20-Star-Treat-Bags


Made two more lots today for village coffee morning tomorrow.
One with 200g dark chocolate, went a bit crumbly, and the other 200g milk choc.

Will cut up and bag tomorrow.
Update:
Sold out quickly, made £24 for village hall funds. Hope the buyers enjoy it.

If you're in Sydney, you could try here.  They have an online shop  Otherwise, just google cellophane gift bags - there are lots of sites to choose from or else try the "$2" shops . . .

I've made this several times, now . . and just can't get over how easy and simple it is to make - not to mention how impressed the recipients have been!!!  Thank you so much for this recipe, Johnro!!!  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Yes, I agree. I always have the ingredients on hand and ready to go for last minute gifts/morning tea etc.
It's a real winner here as I usually start the process as we sit down for dinner and only get up once or twice to stir it. Then put it in the fridge overnight and it's a fuss free affair :)

First time I've made these and they are great. 

DH is taking a plate of them tonight for a shared table of treats on his last shift before Christmas. 

I would love to try the cranberry/pistachio version too and will try cutting the sugar down by half.  Hopefully it doesn't interfere too much with how it turns out.   Thanks Johnro.  :)

Chai fudge sounds heaven sent.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
