    My local asda have had no cake decorations for weeks neither have morrisons or tesco. Sainsbury have some but they are the dr oetker ones and the shelf edge label gives prices for supercook. So they may put them through at the low price i'm not sure but i'll give it a try.
    I bought 3 of the baking sets at 2.24 on amazon last week they are fab. not worth the 19.99 they usally are though.

    Asked about the cake decs in asda and they said they wouldn't be putting anymore out at the moment they aren't allowed to as they have sold all the cheap ones.

    Tesco are still selling the branded oetker ones at the cheap supercook price as of today.

    What a great find rosekitten, I'm going to make chocolate 'stockings' for my nieces and nephews this year so these will be great for doing the decorations :)

    I'm dead jealous of your sugar flowers MrsTine :o

    Thanks again OP, managed to pick a load up in my Local Tesco's today, Sugar Flowers, Jelly lemon and oranges, Food Colourings, sprinkles, choc sprinkles, rainbow sprinkles and 100's of 1000's.

    Stocked up for me and got a load for making Baking hampers as xmas pressies, all I need now is a trip to the £1shop for some stainless steel bowls and wooden spoons.

    Thanks for the Heads up ;-)
    :D:D:D:D:D

    if you can get any suger flowers I
    would happily pay for them and the
    postage as there are none left here

    I am also making a hamper,this is so
    infectious,

    thought I would put in the decorations I have,
    cup cases,muffin tin wooden spoon,apron x 2,
    mixing bowl,flour,suger and icing suger

    then they only have to add the marg,
    eggs & milk themselves

    I have also bought food colourings
    and vanilla essence to add to it
    as these varied from 14p to 19p
    a bottle

    Also Adsa are selling a set consisting of
    wooden spoon,spatula and pastry brush
    £1.20

    They all went, then a few more came back on but by the time I looked gone each time :mad: - they were posted on the 'Grabbit' board
