I've bought biscuits and chocs and now I've remembered that she's off dairy at the moment.

What can I get her instead?

very nice teabags? Fancy dates? (I'm semi making this up)

green and blacks choc - think its dairy free?

thisisyesterday · 23/12/2008 15:58

green and blacks ins't dairy free any more.

divine is, but only the dark stuff, obv and not sure they do gift packs.

erm, chutneys? turkish delight? any kind of sweet that isn't chocolatey?
you can make a really nice dairy-free rocky road if you have time

hey, tell you what. m&s do sonme lovely greek pastries - baclavas etc - if your aunt likes nutty sweet pastries. Quite pricey too, £5 a box.

What all green and blacks I thought it was only the milk choc that had dairy in?

You won't get these delivered in time I don't suppose, but worth bookmarking for next year.

Wine or other fave tipple perhaps for this year.

No MB - dark does too now, the little buggers! I got some dark lindt that is dairy free though.

thisisyesterday · 23/12/2008 16:06

all green and blacks.
some of it used to be vegan, but no longer

MissisBoot · 23/12/2008 16:10

Oh - thats rubbish - I'll have to eat some of my mums present now

Like the greek pastries idea.

thisisyesterday · 23/12/2008 16:12

baklavas have butter in, generally.
in fact, there's very little you can get in m&s that doesn't have milk in

thisisyesterday · 23/12/2008 16:12

bendicks bittermints are dairy free.
as are elizabeth shaw dark choc mints

poinsettydog · 23/12/2008 16:20

ah yes, they will prob have butter in. Didn't think of that.

The Green and Blacks recipes are still dairy free. They have had to change the warnings on the packaging because the same machinery is used for the milk chocolate products and small traces may be left. It says so on their website.

Booja Booja truffles are dairy free. Sainsbury's do a box of dairy free chocs I think in their free from aisle.
