Serving Ideas

  • Bake sale at school
  • Filling up the treat tin
  • Taking on a picnic
  • For Scout away trips
  • Pad Kos – A treat for a long holiday car journeys
  • This is the ultimate just melt and stir together recipe, which works well for young bakers.

I moulded this into a round tin, but it would work in any shaped tin, square, cupcake or loaf tin.

Some white chocolate doesn’t melt well, I used Waitrose Belgian Chocolate and it worked perfectly.

The freeze dried strawberries added a slightly tart, refreshing strawberry flavouring to the white chocolate rocky road, which counteracts the sweetness of the rocky road mixture well.
