Well I cannot take any credit for the design of today’s project, I have to leave that in the hands of the chocolatiers who made the Thai Chill Chocolate that was sent to me by the lovely Dee.
Dee regularly shops with me and sends me projects that she’d like me to recreate sometimes, and this was one that I jumped on straight away!
Partly also because it looks similar to many I’ve made before, including one of the first tutorials I ever made, the Easy Stick Treat Box!
So my project is very true to the box that Dee sent me and despite the blooper during the first filming (which is why there are 3 in the photos…) one of these is Metric and one is Imperial, but no idea which is which now….
I hope you enjoy the video and fill your box with treats too!

Hi there,
another great tutorial. I love all your boxes and of course your tutorials.
I think you said in the video that you would give some information about the magnets you used, but I can not seem to find it.
Where do I need to look?
Hi…
I’m wondering (also) about the magnet information. What size are the magnets that you use most? I am seeing so many varieties on ebay, it is a little confusing. (LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your tutorials!!!!) Thank you.
I go for 8mm x 1mm but 10 by 1 would work too x
