Christmas Cake Chocolate Bark
The final inclusion in this year’s edible Christmas gift hamper is Christmas Cake Chocolate Bark.
Chocolate bark is very simple and versatile gift for any occasion. You really are only limited by your imagination. I try to include some chocolate bark each year, but with a seasonal twist. It is easy to make, which makes up for some of the other more fiddly and time-consuming items.
