Thanks Marina.I made these when Rara posted the recipe for a national charity event called Comic Relief (Red Nose Day), to sell at my weekly upholstery class.I called them Chocolate Covered Noses and raised £15.A couple of the girls,who are Australian were impressed. ;D

This recipe was a real winner in our house last Christmas - at the bride's request also made a few batches for the dessert bar which DD and I did back in June  :)  :)

I have a couple of gorgeous recipes for Rocky Road if I could just get my cookbooks out of the garage, as they are under a few layers.

no problem actually its the first one i have come across where the postage isnt ridiculous..quite often the lollies are cheap then they whop you with a hundred dollar postage fee!  the lollies arent as cheap but hey they are imported and the postage is reasonable to France so imagine quite good in the uk or if your in london no postage  ;D  Come birthdays etc I think I will be ordering with them... :)

Made this for Christmas hampers - very nice indeed, DH even commented with the small sample I gave him.  Easier to cut the raspberries with scissors than a knife and so easy to make.  I mixed it all up on a higher speed/reverse/speed 2 once I added the goodies to the chocolate.
