Between six group members we allocated ourselves to create different designs to attract a variety of different people. For example, I designed decorative Christmas slips, which would appeal to most people, Madiha designed some floral designs in order to attract the female audience and Robbie designed some graffiti slips to attract teenagers.
Chocolates and sweets proved to be the most popular filling for the boxes so we discussed what would be best to buy around the festive season and decided to purchase some Ferraro Rochers and Terry's Chocolate Orange segments. Whilst we were busy designing the slips for the boxes, another team member went to the market and managed to pick up 26 Ferraro Rochers and a box of Terry's Chocolate Orange for just £8!! We also got some more chocolates from the market, a box of Quality Street, chocolate coins, pear drops and Dairy Milk pieces.
I told my group that we should separate the boxes with chocolates containing nuts in from the boxes with just chocolate in because of people with nut allergies. To save confusion we put the design slips around the boxes containing just chocolate and put ribbon around the boxes containing nuts.

Our boxes and some of the fillings..an idea of how it will look.
We used a variety of popular sweets bought from Poundland to fill some boxes. The sweets we used were dolly mixture, fizzy sweets, cherry sweets, millions etc.
If we had to redo this project again, I think we would reconsider using sweets containing gelatine because they are not suitable for some vegetarians and people who can't eat it.
We managed to fill all the boxes and decorate them with design slips and ribbon ready to be sold at the Christmas Fayre.
