    So a family member recently moved to Austrailia and I've been wanting to send some things over, namely, some pudding, frozen pies, taytos, all sorts really. Anyone know what I would be left send. And mainly whats the best way to send items that need refrigeration or freezing?

    If you search the forum you'll find your answers. Here's a starting point - http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056532358

    As that thread says, you can get the likes of Tayto, pudding and other Irish food over here so it's become a bit pointless posting stuff over.

    I would imagine sending anything frozen would require specialist shipping and would cost orders of magnitude more than value of food, unless you are sending a container.

    Processed, non perishable foodstuffs and confectionary is quite straightforward, so sweets, crisps, sauces etc should be fine.

    As Xavi said just search forum, it had been discussed on here dozens of times in past.
