We like to think our team carry themselves with professionalism and kindness at all times, but when our Respiratory Health Educator Yvonne announces there is a fresh batch of her famous Rocky Road in the office, it’s a mad scramble to the kitchen and tears for those who miss out.
After more than 20 years of nurturing our souls and waistlines, Yvonne will be retiring in March this year. As her leaving gift, she has decided to share the top-secret recipe not only with us, but also with you!
Thank you, Yvonne, our entire team appreciates your generosity! You will be making many tastebuds and bellies happy, and we will all miss you more than you know!

ROCKY ROAD CHRISTMAS TREE
Make a cone shaped mould by stapling cardboard together in a cone shape or a kids party hat, line it with glad wrap. Make Rocky Road and pour it into the mould. Secure the mould by standing it in a class or a jug then place in the fridge to set.
Once set and removed from the cone, even out the base with a knife if needed. Randomly pipe or pour white chocolate on the top of the tree to resemble snow.
