  4. Your apple hearts look just gorgeous and I bet they taste delicious too.

    I've rather lost the plot on weather I said thank you for the HC chocolates - I hope I did! I was very good and didn't open them until half an hour ago. They've featured on my blog birthday post today. Thanks again.

  11. These sound fantastic , would adding raisins take away from their softness too much do you think ?

  12. @ Mark you can add some raisins and flaked almonds also they work well.
