Big tins of Quality Street & Roses - What to do with all the rubbish ones left at the end?
When you get a big tin of roses or quality street, all the nice ones go first, then the ok ones, then all the carp ones are left at the end.
What do you lot do with them? You know the ones I'm talking about. The rock hard toffee's which pull fillings out (be they pennys or battons), the coconut ones or any of the others which are left that don't go well with a cuppa. One thing I've started doing is using empty wrappers (WHY DO PEOPLE PUT THEIR EMPTY WRAPPERS BACK IN THE TIN WITH THE REMAINING CHOCOLATES?) to re-wrap ones which are left, hence the coconut one is re-wrapped in a big purple one wrapper, then when someone thinks "ah ha! Big purple one! Jackpot!", they'll unwrap to find it's actually a coconut eclair thingy.... Or should I just shut up and stick them in the bin? advice plz

Re: Big tins of Quality Street & Roses - What to do with all the rubbish ones left at the end?
Roses are far nicer than Quality Street, far less of those are left over I find. I like the disguising of chocs in nicer wrappers, however you might find people end up spitting them out in your general direction
Also if someone was allergic to coconut and ended up getting one you might feel a little guilty... Take the wrappers off and put them in little bags then give them to any kids you know, they're not generally fussy lol. Or melt them in a big pan and make some sort of flapjack or cake with them? |

I'm sure that there are plenty of big issue sellers out today freezing their goolies off. Why not give your chocs to them and make their day?
