    If you can get hold of a basket the size you want put scrunched up coloured paper in the bottom buy some nice chocholate bars or empty a box, wrap in cellophane and add ribbon.

              I've used chocolat hotel (ignore my spelling of it tho!) and they were fine. The recipient was totally pleased ...
              Life may not be the party we hoped for but since we're here we might as well dance

                I think they are for chocolate officionados, very high cocoa content, so its quite hard to scoof too many at a time! The chocolate flakes for topping things are lush, they have never made it into a drink yet, I lick them off my palm. (don't tell OH, they were hers!!)

                  Not sure whether they would do deliveries but local to us is Velvet Bean (Ledbury, Herefordshire) who are very good and our local sweet shop makes chocolate 'pizza' which is basically a huge round of chocolate topped with all your fave sweets and served in a takeaway pizza box! Probably reasonably easy to make yourself

                        Ooohhh, all this chocolate talk ..... I love the idea of the chocolate pizza, must give that a try.

                        My cousin is a pastry chef and she makes brownies to die for, as well as all sorts of chocolate figures. Add in the sites you've been mentioning and there's absolutely no hope for my waistline!!

                          Would you like me to ask LadyWayne for recommendations? She works very close to a large department store owned by an Egyptian dude, and quite often buys chocolates and alike for friends/family from nearby chocolate specialists.

                            They make a product called "Liquid Chocolat" now, which is chocolate flakes (in a few flavours) that mixes with milk to make the most divine hot chocolate in the world
