LAST MINUTE CHRISTMAS SWEET CANAPE IDEA


As I was preparing for Christmas I was trying to find nice sweet treat ideas that were effective but still simple to make as I have so much more to do regarding the actual dinner let alone the night time buffet!!

I love these marshmallows. They are simple, cheap, effective and taste good (if you have a sweet tooth!) 
You don't exactly need a recipe for these - or even a method haha as they are effectively just marshmallows dipped in chocolate. I just fancied taking photos as I was creating them!! 
I have made them for two sets of parties now and everyone has come up to me to tell me how lovely they were and how I made them (not sure if that's a joke though... haha)
I added some Christmas themed decorations on them to get them all party-like.
I would buy a full bar of chocolate but only melt 4/5 squares at a time as it is surprising how much chocolate it makes once its melted! 
Twist the marshmallows into the chocolate to get a good covering and then place them on your tray!
Stick the decorations on (if wanted) whilst the chocolate is still wet so it sticks well!

Once all done - place the trays in the fridge. Once dry, the trays/marshmallows can be stacked on top of each other to save space!





I got all my ingredients from Home Bargains. The trays - 79p each, the marshmallows - £1, the chocolate - £1 and the decorations -79p each!!

Serve these up along side your pudding platters or dot them round the room like canape trays!

'Christmas Party' Season Pretty Little Thing Wish List

As Christmas is slowly (but quickly) creeping upon us I thought I would do a quick Christmas Party wishlist from Pretty Little Thing as you all seemed to love the last wish list I did from them! I still cant believe how many views it got in the first few hours! but thankyou!

ANYWAY - 
1 -  This is a great top to dress up and dress down. Especially if your Christmas party is a meal out or something slightly more casual! I also love the recently popular trend of wearing a detailed triangle bra/lace bralet underneath to give a little bit of sexiness away if you dont want to actually get your boobs out/have none to get out even if you wanted too (like me) Buy it here - £15

2 - How gorgeous is this dress?! Perfect for the slightly more extravagant Christmas party. You can wear it again and again - black tie events etc and even a prom?! so elegant and affordable! Buy it here - £25

3 - glitter and sequins... what else best describes Christmas?! I love this for your Christmas night out with your girls etc. It could easily be worn again without looking too Christmassy but screams Christmas when worn in the right season! Buy it here - £30

4 - A slightly more 'demure' version of number 3. Subtler glitz and slightly longer but still gorgeous. Ability to wear again without Christmas - 10/10. Buy it here - £25

5 - I think this is my favourite one! The shape and silhouette is absolutely gorgeous. I love the colour, the neckline - everything! They have got this spot on with the design! Perfect to dress up and dress down depending non what night you have planned and super amazing if you have lumps, bumps and problem areas as it doesn't cling to everything you have! Buy it here - £25


Hope you've enjoyed this just as much as my previous wish list. Happy shopping and have a lovely Christmas Party!!!
