Lollies that look like rocks / pebbles ??

[{sarah}]

Yes a strange request I know! But does anyone know of where to get little lollies that look like rocks or pebbles??

I've found some at a Margaret River lolly shop called river pebbles & they are chocolate, my issue is I don't know if I'm going to be able to get the here in time. I've emailed the lady & hopefully will get a response today. Is there something I can use from just a supermarket or regular lolly shop that anyone knows of? Or does someone have a shop nearby that they can get some for me & post express post???? (I would pay of course).

Probably should explain why LOL!! I'm making Zander's third birthday cake on Wednesday & I've decided to make a construction scene. I have the dirt, road and grass all sorted, but I really want some "boulders" to put on there too.

The Chocolate Box sells Chocolate rocks I can get you some tomorrow and post them to you express?

Only thing i could suggest is get some of that ready to roll icing and put some brown/tiny bit of black food die on it, roll into balls or rock shapes etc. Then you can make them the size you want and will be a hell of a lot cheaper im sure.

Actually works out about the same the fondant icing is about 4-5 dollars and the dye is about 3-4 dollars and who can possibly give up an opportunity to eat chocolate LOL! (I am being facetious)

Oh no worries.. had no idea how much the other ones would cost but yeh id go the chocolate version for sure!

My dad was suggesting all sorts of things like crushing up crunchie bars as well. If you saw the rocks you'd understand there's no other option, they are awesome & look so realistic
