A Christmas Tree isn’t a Christmas Tree without some chocolatey treats hanging on it is it? But I begrudge paying £2+ for six little chocolate shapes when I know that I can make my own cheaper (and bigger) versions.
So, this afternoon I bought 10 Cadburys Magical Elves chocolate bars and sellotaped a loop of Christmas tree lametta to the back of it and voila, a yummy chocolate decoration was born 
I bought the Magical Elves bars because they were only 5 for £1 (and possibly because they’re purple and match my tree) but any small chocolate bar or wrapped sweets would be fine and you could just use normal cotton or string if you don’t have any lametta.
Look how cute they look….
They match my tree perfectly too.
Oh I do like that idea – thanks very much x
Great idea! You can make them by melting chocolate into ice cube trays (Star shapes etc) wrapping in foil and attaching string. Many an hour was taken up doing this with my two.

Brilliant idea, I've been looking around for some hanging ones but they are really expensive so I thought 'not this year'. Definitely going to do this. Sam xx
Hope you had fun making (and eating) them x
They must be very tempting to your kids.. Have you noticed anything missing?
One of them *may* be missing now!
