Inspired by this party from Kate Landers Events, I thought I would Australian-ise her nest recipe. I made some nests for my boutique markets display last month, and they were so easy.
You probably remember making these in Preschool or early Home Ec classes - I certainly don't claim to be the creator of this idea!
The only two ingredients are these. I just used cheap chocolate as I wasn't needing it to taste amazing. I used one packet of chocolate to one and a half packets of these fried noodles.
Melt choc and mix
Pour into glad wrap lined nest-sized bowls. Press up the sides till you get the depth and thickness you want (mine were way too chunky - could have knocked someone out with it!)
Set in the fridge, peel off plastic and fill with treats!
And those fried noodles really look twig-like!
A sweet addition to any down in the garden theme or fairy theme don't you think?
