chocolate - sweet related games

I'm a young leader (now a leader in training) and this week I had some trouble coming up with games for our Guide meeting our theme was international Chocolate week. In the end we did these. they all really enjoyed it.
hope its helpfull!

Chocolate fondue : Ok so this one isn't a game,but its always a hit. simply bring a bowl some bars of plain chocolate and some long dipping sticks. We melted the chocolate in a microwave for safety reasons . and  they dipped fruit and marshmallows in them.

Building a campfire:
you will need different types of sweets for this , I also brought salty sticks as they can resemble logs.
The aim of the game is for the girls to either separately or in small groups build a mini campfire , with tents and things out of sweets, in a limited amount of time ( I use 5 minutes to make it harder) the team or girl who's sweet camp resembles one or is the most creative wins !

Marshmallow Tower:  
You will need marshmallows and toothpicks. The aim is to build the highest or the most stable tower out of marshmallows and toothpicks. also with a time limit and after who builds the highest or the most stable one (so it stands up by itself for a certain amount of time) Wins.

Its cold outside : 
You need an assortment of cold weather clothes , the same things for each team, knives and forks, and a type of chocolate bar.
The girls are divided into groups. Each has a pile of clothes and a chocolate bar and a knife and fork. A girl must run up to the chocolate bar put on all the clothes ( its more exciting if there's loves in the pile)
then using the knife and fork cut a piece of chocolate then get all the clothes of and rn back to her team.
the team who finishes first wins.

Poison ! :

Put out a few sweets on the table, one girl leaves the room and the others must decided which one is the  "poisoned" sweet. bring back the girl and she can start eating the sweets but if she eats the poisoned one everyone must shout POISON ! and then her turn is over. and you can start over with someone else.
(so you have to be care full which one you choose other wise you're turn can be over quickly and won't be able to eat as many sweets)
