I am planning on buying LOTS of American chocolates and sweets. But on my inbound flight back to London, they will be in my main suitcase in the hold.

Has anyone done this before? Where they melted? I'm not sure if I should take chocolates in my hand luggage - but I suspect the cabin may be hotter than the main hold.

Also, whilst on my big American shopping craziness, I plan on spending a lot of hard worked saved up money in yankee candle and bath and body works. Now I know it would not be advisable to take big glass jar candles in my hand luggage, but I'm trying to save space by taking those little wax melts or wax votives in my hand luggage - will USA security have a fit if I carry wax melts in my hand luggage? Id hate to spend money and get them taken off me.

Thanks
