Christmas is coming ... but that doesn't necessarily mean a last minute dash to the shops for last-minute gift purchases. Not when you can have fun getting covered in flour at home conjuring up some homemade edible Christmas gifts instead.
Why not try baking, shaping and wrapping your own homemade edible Christmas gifts in the comfort of your own home, instead. After all, food is always a welcome gift, especially when it's made by your fair own hands ... even if you aren't the best cook in the world ... it's the thought that counts!
Here's a selection of recipes that'll cook you into the good books of loved ones, from mini panettone to wild mushroom terrine. Be sure to package your food parcels beautifully with our holiday packaging ideas.
