This sounds like fun! I LOVE hot chocolate! It's not cold here in TX yet, but I drink it all year long anyways :).

Its not that cold yet here either but I love any time of the year also! Plus by the time it gets to us it should be colder.

I swapped swaps... swap jumped... to this one from the international one :)

Any good brands to look for that are "gourmet"? I've only seen store brand, Swiss Miss, and Nestle. I haven't looked in the past 2-3 weeks though and more may have been added with it getting close to Christmas:)

You can find brands like: Ghirardelli, Hershey's, Starbucks & Land o lakes. With flavors like: carmel, mint, dark, rasberry, White Chocolate. Now is a great time to check out walmart, target, & trader joes to find some great packs or tins. Look in the Christmas gift sets & buy a set & keeep the mugs or send the whole set! I hope this helps. Maybe your partner will take homemade hot chocolate "kits" made by you! There are ton of recipes online for them! Gloria

Hey everyone... Newbie ScrapCat here... I also love to make my own hot cocoa mixes... is it okay to add one of those in the mix?

honeya9705 11/15/2007 #

I would love to get homemade.

I had to drop this swap because, I live in the country. Or as we call it BFE. I suppose were lucky we get Nestle or Swiss Miss. That is it. Even with all the Christmas stuff out already, there are no gourmet or special brands.

kgeslab 11/24/2007 #

I, too, am having trouble finding 6 different kinds.

honeya9705 11/30/2007 #

they dont have to be differnt. you could send 2 or 3 of each. I like to use 2 packs per cup of hot chocolate.

for the other one for TrayceeH: you could just make those one extra special. make a spoon with chocolate on it that they could stir it with or add real marshmallows to your package because the little ones that come with it melt really fast.

You could also put those kinds in a nice package with a handwritten tag of how to make it... like in a jar layered with marshmellows.

Sorry this info came up late... I will be doing another swap for the US only in Jan. 2008 maybe this will help! Thanks! Gloria
