More Hot Cocoa gift ideas (because everyone loves cocoa)

Hot Cocoa Tubes
Hot cocoa is such a perfect gift for everyone.  Great for a child who loves to get chocolate on their upper lip after a day of playing in the snow, and great for an adult who wishes to be a child instead of shoveling the driveway and sidewalks.

These hot cocoa treat tubes are great gifts to make, give and receive.
Aren't these treats just awesome!  The treat tubes are what makes these ingredients come together in such a fun way.  And, they are only 42 cents each!

I filled one tube with pre-packaged cocoa mix.  Be sure to tap down the tube when filling with the cocoa so you can fit the maximum amount in (a funnel was very helpful).  To make this hot cocoa mixture extra chocolatey, I filled the second tube with mini-chocolate chips and crushed peppermint candy.  I crushed the circular mints because I couldn't find candy canes, but I'm sure they will be in the stores any day now that Halloween is over.

Put some mini-marshmallows in the bottom of a 2" x 8" cellophane bag (about 12 or so), place the tubes on top of the marshmallows and add a fun stirring straw.  Tie a bow with ribbon and place a label on the front.  You get 50 of these bags for only $3.  That's a lot of hot cocoa packages!

I'm in love with this Hug in a Mug stamp set.  You can create your own mugs, hot beverages and fixings with just ink and paper.  Not only will this set create fun labels like the one above, but great gift tags, wrapping paper, scrapbook pages and don't forget the cards (I know I would love a January birthday card with this set, so don't think it's limited to Christmas).

Please let me know if I can help you order the supplies to make these great treats.  I highlighted each of the products with links for easy navigating.

Only 7 weeks to go until Christmas!!!
