I used to have this readily available on my 450D, now it seems as if even though it is a Menu item that I have to drill down to change it. Have I missed something? Flash is 430EXII.

Easiest, quickest way to set FEC is directly on the 430EX II.  Press SET, + or - the amount desired, SET again.  p. 14 of the 430EX II instruction manual.  Easy-peasy.

Next would be to use the [Q] Quick Control screen, p. 120 of the 700D instruction manual.

I'd never bother with drilling into the Flash Control Menu to do FEC (pp. 218-222)  IMHO, YMMV.
