    Hi guys,

    I have a friend in the states that lived in Ireland for a couple of years. It's her birthday soon, so I want to surprise her with a food hamper/care package. I'm trying to find out what I can't send from here, but my searches are ending up empty.

    I was thinking of sending her:
    Chocolate
    Jaffa Cakes
    Crisps
    Tea (obv!)
    Shortbread biscuits

    Now, she was a massive fan of Bulmers, if I packed it carefully, could I send her a couple of cans?

    Thanks for all your help,

    Papa
