Subject: We have the tea bag envelopes, but how about a hot chocolate envelope with a poem or saying?

Has anyone done this, or has a site? I'm not a poet at all. Even my great poems would be classified as unbelievably stupid.

Hope this helps...

Hot chocolate will warm
your tummy, and it is so
good and yummy....
Here's a packet that will
make a cup...
When you need some warming
up.....
Just add water, nice and
hot, and this drink
should hit the spot....

Subject: Hot Cocoa Cone Poem

I'm working on making some cones right now and thought I had a poem for a single serving cone but can't find it (if I ever had one).

I was wondering and hoping if anyone has one. I'd like to use it as a tag for the cones.
Thanks so much!!!

Warm Holiday Mix
by shirleyt@craftsayings.com

Usually cones are freezing
but this one will warm you up.
Just add some hot water
and stir into your favorite cup.

Add a few snowballs and
watch them melt away,
and sit back and dream of
a winter ride on a sleigh.

Throw in a few sprinkles
to reflect in the moonlight.
May it warm your heart
and your holidays be bright!
by shirleyt@craftsayings.com
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you need something warm
or want something nummie
try this hot chocolate
it's a tummy yummy!
author unknown to me

Good luck,
Debbie

just add the hot water

Poems: Cocoa Cones with Red Hots

Subject: Cocoa cone poem request

Hi Ladies! I have been sick since I got back from Orlando 10 days ago but Mom came to my rescue and helped me get 40 cones ready and bagged for my show! This year I added to "flavors" with red hots and would like to have a poem for them as Reindeer noses and also one that is Red Hot Cocoa for Red Hot Ladies!

Thanks so much! I have a huge show this weekend and have high aspirations! LOL Last year I sold out of the cocoa cones so I am making more and prepared to make even more depending on how Friday goes!
Hugs!

hi! i saw at a hallmark store cute hot chocolate, marshmellow, and sprinkle mixes that were in a cone shaped baggie. they were 4 dollars!!!! has any one made those??? thanks, kathy

here's what some people have done in a previous post they sell for about 4.95 by time add up the cost. they use cake decorating bags then tie at top with a rubber band then add a ribbon. hope this helps just layer ingredients in the bag.

noah's ark rainbow cocoa attaching this poem using cocoa mix marshmallows, and tiny m and m's for rainbows and animal crackers\

Remember when the rain came down
And Noah built his ark
He had animals all screeching
Birds tweeting, dogs that bark
He needed to relax a bit
To get his head down low
So he went to bed and there he said
A prayer for a rainbow
Then as he snuggled into bed
Before he went to sleep
Mrs. Noah made him a nice hot drink
This little cocoa treat
(C) Yvonne Lowther 1103

When things don't go right
and you'd like to bark,
remember it was raining
when Noah built the ark.

But he persevered and
saved the critters two by two.
So let this be a lesson
when you're down and blue.

Just calm yourself and ponder
with some of this Noah's cocoa.
Then do what you must do and
bring out a beautiful rainbow!

Didnt get any responds with the first question, so I decided to try a different route.
Im looking for a poem/saying to go with some cute snowman/christmas mugs, that Im going to put some homemade instant hot chocolate mix in for my co-workers.
We are school cooks. So something along that line would be cute. or about the real meaning of Christmas.

Subject: Noah Cocoa

Help poets! I made the cocoa in a cone for my show that is today through sunday! Well it was a huge hit! I had 4 kinds and made cute tags. Of the 24 I made I am down to 4. I went and got more ingredients for the other flavors but I need a different poem for the noah one. I used cocoa mix I made, marshmallows, and tiny m and m's for rainbows. I had a poem about animal crackers but I only sold 2 of those so I want to tweak it. I am calling it "Noah's Rainbow Fun Cocoa" any poem ideas? I have to make more for Tomorrow and Sunday as well as the first week of December show!
hugs!

[> Re: Noah Cocoa -- Deborah the BZYBEE in Nampa, IDaho, 09:51:17 11/24/03 Mon [1]

Nope I am sorry! I think most of the poems other than the Noah Ark Animal cookie and the Santa Ho Ho cocoa were poems I had already in my files and I tweaked them a bit to make them work! Didn't sell as many Sunday as I know I would of on Satureday! Oh well I have another show in 2 weeks!

Noah's Cocoa
by shirleyt@craftsayings.com

Cows, ponies, sheep,
birds, dogs and cats...
He saved two of each
even mice and rats.

For forty days and nights
they stayed on Noah's ark,
and he put up with it all...
every moo, meow and bark.

So have this little tribute
as you sip and thank Noah,
but we can still question why...
did he save the darn mosquito!

Subject: A poem for cocoa with marshmallows already in it

I couldn't find the indiviual marshmallow packages so I bought cocoa with them already in it and made this up to put on my packets. Sorry I can't show you the completed one but it's made with hugware....

Heat up a melted
snowman 6 oz
of him will do it
And add him to the
snowball mix, that's all
there is to it,
Use the cane to stir
in the kisses,
for in the kisses
Love does abide
Now sip it slowly and
you're sure to feel
all warm and
toasty inside.

Cocoa Poem + Poem: Snowman Droppings

Date Posted: 18:01:40 11/21/05 Mon
Author: DonnaJ
Subject: another cocoa poem and poem for snowman droppings

I put two Hersheys Kisses and a Hug in with this one along with mini marshmallows. My oldest DGD loved the line about a melted snowman, she asked for a snowman to drink for months afterward.

Empty the packet into the mug
Now add a melted snowman,
hot from the tub.
Now add some kisses and
don't forget the hug.
Now stir it and whirl it around in the mug
Use the "magic" stirring stick
(Yum Yum have a lick)
Now whatever you do
Don't forget to add the snowman poo!
Now try it....come on have a taste
You have to try it, you really do!
It's really quite delicous
even if its not very nutritious!

( To keep the magic sip slowly
and stir occasionally with magic stick)
© DonnaJ 2004

I put the mini marshmallows in a candy tent I made with this poem on it last year.

Snowman Droppings
In the cold of winter...when snow arrives
All the snowmen com alive.
And as they dance around and play.
They leave little droppings along the way.
Round and white, so sweet and light
Eating them is sheer delight
So I gathered them up just for you.
So go ahead have one, better yet
Have two!
