A one-off edible Christmas wreath we made for a charity auction - the "holly berries" are flavoured chocolate truffles (red = Tia Maria, green = Grand Marnier and gold = spiced) and the little packages are panforte.
Larger blocks of addictive panforte waiting to be wrapped in fancy brown paper and beribboned.
Rows of traditional Christmas puddings that I spent hours dressing up - waxed paper...two layers of muslin...cellophane...ribbon...waxed paper...two layers of muslin...cellophane...ribbon...But I love wrapping things and making them look pretty! We didn't hide pennies or charms in this batch. Next one, maybe.

Yum. But are you going to share a recipe for panaforte? It looks so good . . . I love the wrapped puddings. My mom always makes steamed pudding this time of year.
Hello Chou,
I can't find an email address on your blog to send the recipe to. Or am I blind? Please forward address?
Your mom must have started soaking the dried fruit for the puddings a while ago? I love that part of the process...it's kind of like cultivating the starter for a sourdough.
the panfortes make me drool
And they make me fat, Mr C.
Thank you for visiting.
