Festive Vegan Tiffin
“You don’t need to be a good cook or love baking to make delicious treats at Christmas to share with friends and family. A Christmas tiffin requires no baking and is probably one of the easiest sweet treats to make. It works perfectly as a more sustainable gift to save buying someone something new or to take over to a loved one’s house as a sign of your appreciation. Plus it’s perfect to make after the big day to use up all the chocolate you’ve inevitably collected. Everyone I’ve given this to has said it’s their new favourite, so give it a try.” – Madeleine Olivia
