It's a tough job

 
It's hard work being a shop keeper you know? Having to source beautiful eye catching items on a daily basis. Ha! not at all. It's the best job in the world & I love it. Never more so than at this time of year when the stock I've ordered, sometimes months ago, finally comes in. At this time of year it's all about presents. What people would like to give and most importantly what people would be delighted to receive.

Here's one present that ticks 2 boxes..

 

Not only would this make an excellent gift in it's own right, but it is also ideal for those who want to make special little gifts for Christmas from their own kitchen.

 
Who could resist home made Turkish Delight, dusted in icing sugar and packed in cellophane packages tied up with ribbon?

 
Or jars of marinated goats cheese, looking so lovely it seems a crime to open the jar.

 
This Honeycomb is always a hit. So easy to do, yet it never fails to make an impression.

 
Perfect for giving to neighbours these little cakes look very moreish.

 

 
Just how pretty do these sugar lumps look? Surprisingly simple to do I thought this idea was genius.

 
And how about a few pastel coloured macaroons? Presented in a prettily decorated box, what could be nicer?
