away from the Teflon Blurr . . . . .

Well thats a years supply of Kendal, though I think it works out cheaper to buy it when you have had to do that washing up......

I had to put in two teaspoons of peppermint to get the taste of milk to vanish though.

Watch out on Yomp 30 for all those plastic bags full of home made crisp white stuff ..... what a thought .....

Nice one Ratso - ( all what washing up ? I only use one pan ) :P

Cheap nowt man - what you have is exclusive ! AND you can make it when you want to -

Remember that it has to boiled until stiff - the mint cake that is....

I use about four drops of the peppermint oil - any more than that and you'll have to wear goggles

If you can't break a bit off it aint workin . . .

Sell it on the Yomp - or give it to the umpires.....

Yep Ive got a bad wrist from making it stiff ...... stirring the sugar that is.

I have to admit it is as good as the real thing mass production in Kendal must be a doddle.

Bootie shaped Kendle mint cake on sale for the Yomp what a good idea.....

We started getting them in our last year of cadets, good stuff. The Lancashire hotpot was always pretty spot on as well!! And Kleenex is so much softer than normal bog roll...or is that just because you're in the great outdoors??
