i use the tupperware peeler (an older model than they have now) and it's quite easy to just get the peel without pith

I've had the Orange and Choc custard twice now and have never come across any 'bits' of orange.  Just blitz the orange peel with the sugar and that's it - it all looks like a powder and smells divine - unless I've just been lucky and missed out on the 'bits', but no one else has ever said anything either.

Judy, they have come down in price since I got mine, (unless it's just a good special from that website).   

Here's the one I have, it was $50 when they first came out, now reduced to less than $30.  Brilliant for parmesan too, especially when you just want to grate lightly over your meal.

Sent these details to DD and just heard back that she has ordered one for me (10 days delivery so will be a little late for my birthday but what the heck!)  Thanks JulieO

20g cocoa and it was a bit too rich I think - the kids certainly didn't like it. the adults ate it.
am going to try 3 tablespoons of cocoa and see how that goes

Mine in the day after yours Julie, 28th Sept.

And no Thermomixer don't like boring presents - they just tell me to make a list which I generally do but this year I'm having trouble thinking of anything to put on a list.  Usually they buy me everything on the list so I have learnt to keep the list reasonably short as I don't want them wasting their money on me.
