Does anyone have any alternatives to giving out mitai to close family and friends to celebrate, once LO arrives?

Is dried fruit/ sugared almonds/ wedding favoury type things ok or a bit lame

@wizzywig I’m not sure but maybe there’s some posh chocolates I could give instead.

Hi @Alex8899

Congratulations on your LO! x

Congratulations! I see ferrero rocher doing the rounds more and more ! Sometimes I think it's the same box !!

wizzywig · 07/10/2023 13:49

Ferrero rocher is compulsory!

We’ve also distributed baklava. Not that different from mithai I guess.

I didn't even know there was a south Asian board ! Is there a regular chat ?

wizzywig · 08/10/2023 19:15

@doubleshotcappuccino what do you mean by regular chat? Like there is on the black mumsnet page?

Alex8899 · 08/10/2023 23:24

Lindor chocolates are a nice option. You get different flavours too
