*Reviewed for Aussie Forum Recipe Swap June 2010* Easy to make and very pretty. Holly (6) helped make these and rates them as 'a hundred' and shows 10 fingers :) Photos also to be posted. Thankyou mummamills these are a very pretty party treat. Editting to add...we couldn't get musk lifesavers...but strawberry sundae flavour worked well for us. We also used the white chocolate option

This looks like a winner! We have cooking tea parties at my party place and this fits beautifully with that theme. We even have all the ingredients on hand from other recipes and that's a bonus! Thanks

These are great little treats that young and old alike love and they look fantastic. I made them to go on an edible Christmas village that My son and I made this year. These played the part of a make believe merry go round in the village. I used oreo cookies as that is what I could get, everyone loved the concept and kept saying how cute they looked. They also got no complaints when it came time to eat them everyone had been dying to dig in but I made them wait through Christmas day so the village stayed in one piece. A definite Hit!!!

These were a HIT!!! with kids and adults alike. ...10 excellent stars ! I used Oreo cookies because we don't have Tic-Toc biscuits here and Wilimenia peppermints hammered in half for the cup handles because Lifesavers were nowhere to be found either. The kids helped with some of them and they were so easy to put together. To stick the handles on the cups I mixed 1 Tablespoon of icing sugar with a enough drops of Orange Flower Water to make a very very thick teaspoon of paste.. ( think bricklayers mortar and you will have the correct consistancy LOL) I then coated the cut edges of the mints and they set in about 20-30 seconds. I did the handles first and then dipped the tops and finially set the "cups" onto the "saucers". Voila ! I already have multiple pleas to make this again, so please see my Rating System: 5 excellent stars ! Thanks!
