    be careful if you are buying overseas
    anything over £18 of goods you have to
    pay VAT & duty on as well as a £17
    customs handling charge.

    So fed up that my cases aren't here yet and seeing Rosekitten's cake in a glass ramekin dish I thought I would have a little go.

    the red chocolate balls I have left over from Christmas logs
    I sprinkled some coconut on.. Being glass, it could do with something in the bottom. Not enough space for another flannel otherwise it would be nice to do a pink one, I tried. Could do bathpearls I suppose.

    How about putting bath salts in the bottom??

    Mumoftwo............well done.....................mixed colour bath salts would look good to give the knickerbocker glory look.

    There are rolls of cellophane with holly and santa printed on them for £2.99 in hobbycraft, I know this is probably an expensive way of wrapping them but it is pretty if you are wrapping for young people

  • I came here for a little nosey :D

    I bought those cases from ebay ages ago. From this seller...

    http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Baking-Frenzy

    It says they're in the UK but I don't think they are, my stuff came from Thailand I seem to remember. They are very cute, I have a cupboard full :D

    If you look in the shop banner thingy they have a similar brown case there. I bet if you asked her she'd look for the check ones for you.
