Edible gifts at Christmas have long been part of British tradition. Whether it's nuts and satsumas in your children's stockings or leaving mince pies out for Father Christmas, we all celebrate with food.
If the thought of braving the shops this Christmas doesn't appeal why not knock up some delicious festive treats from the comfort of your own kitchen? These delicious treats add a personal touch to gift giving and they're kind to your wallet.
Our video on How to Make Edible Gift Biscuits will take you through the process for one of our recipes step by step - they look beautiful at the end. Or how about White Chocolate and Cranberry Fudge to tempt the taste buds? Make sure you get a piece yourself though; it'll be gone before you know it!
Our Biscuit Baubles are a really festive foodie gift and look stunning when packaged up in cellophane. Or, for those with a taste for the finer things in life Gordon Ramsay's Chocolate Mint Truffles have the ‘wow' factor.
These Chocolate Dipped Honeycomb Chunks will appeal to adults and children alike and can be packaged beautifully in little gift bags or arranged in colourful boxes.
Homemade chutney is perfect for those who prefer savoury to sweet. Our Spiced Plum and Ginger Chutney will be a lovely accompaniment to cheese, cold meats and salads for months after the festive season is over.
Happy festive baking!
