You could pop the shortbread into clear celophane bags with a twist tie before you put them into the noodle boxes... this will keep them fresh, stop the from being shaken around a bit and stop crumbs from escaping through the bottom of the box.
Ok, now I'm back I will let you all know what happened.
So, I got to my Mums on Christmas eve when she was already in bed so just put the presents under the tree and went to bed. I hadn't put the shortbread in the present coz I didn't want it to be stale by morning so when I woke up I put it in little boxes and went to put it in the bag and find another present in there too, no name on it. So I just chucked it out and put the shortbread in. Then I see it gets back in there somehow. Then mum tells me she has bought a present for her husband from us to put in there aswell!!!! My present had both their names on it so was obvioulsy to both of them but no, not good enough. RUDENESS!!!!!!!!!!! So I was supposed to pretend we bought it!!!!! wtf!!!!! I just didn't say anything when he opened it and all he said anyway was 'these won't fit, I hope you kept the receipt', so grateful. Should have said 'I'm sure Mum has it' but I just ignored him.
Anyway, we weren't there for long. All they did was invite their friends around and drink anyway so me and DH and my brothers went to Dads where he actually wanted to spend christmas with us. Much more fun!
