Ingredients missing on boxes and rectifications

l have made a "balls up" of the ingredient lists of the Apostles chocolates (l forgot some ingredients, mispelled some) and some boxes of prunes came without ingredients, or with the ingredients list from last year, which will not make any sense. Thank you for excusing me, please contact me if you are confused. Here is a revision of the ingredients list. Mistakes and missing ingredients are in bold and capitals, mispelled/mistaken words in italic....
