sound like a good way for tablets...

es never really liked taking medicine, like calpol...and te only way we could get him to take anything was by giving him a spoonful of nutella before and after the spoon of medicine...that way the overwhelmingly disgusting taste off the medicine couldnt get through...

now I know it's not the best way to get a child to take medicine...but it worked and tbh....when it was either seeing him suffer or using sweet gooey nutella to get him to take it....nutella always won....
