Wow, beautiful hampers. I think I might need to improve my presentation.....next year! Mine will just be popped into a gift bag.


Me too, Jo!   ;D ;D

I like the idea of shoving placing it all in a Christmas Bag.

Yeah, Beautifully presented Mab. Wished I had the creativity to think of a cake board. My kids are getting their hampers in a gift bag. How will I remember for next year. :D

Wow ! So many lovely ideas girls...
You sure have been busy these days!
I might be a little late to participate in the topic but ... better late than never.  ;)

I made White Torrone with Nuts and Fruits; and Hazelnut Chocolate Torrone this year. Each make 3 nougats.

Homemade Vanilla sugar also could be a nice gift idea..

They look lovely, farfallina.  If I didn't already have my gifts made I would be very tempted to try yours ... in fact, I might try them anyway and make them New Year gifts!

That nougat looks great Farfallina.

All the Christmas treats looks amazing, I'm sure there are some very happy recipients around. I finally managed to make some Cookies and Cream fudge and Rocky Road last night and will need to make a few more things over the weekend to give as gifts. This thread has provided great inspiration I just need to be at home to cook now.

I made cookies & cream fudge, cinnamon biscuits, citrus scented shortbread and peppermint rounds. I found some lovely stackable tins at Kmart and have used these for my goodies.

Chookie, I made a batch of your Lemon Balls last night. Very yummy indeed, a nice change from the chocolatey ones. :)
