Mini-loaf cake cases

Options
I was in Costa Coffee today, and noticed that their individual loaf cakes come in their own cake cases. They are a little like corrugated cardboard and have serrated edges so that you can get the cakes out easily in order to eat them.

As an avid cake-baker, these cases would be ideal for me, as I love giving little hampers of home-made food to family and friends. I also take some of my cakes in to the nearby care homes, so being able to package some little loaf cakes properly would be wonderful, particularly for the christmas season. The only problem is, having had a little google around, I can't find any! I can find the actually mini loaf cake tins themselves, but not the cases to put them in. Can anybody here help me please?

    I was sure Lakeland Plastics would do something like this, but a quick search turned up nothing. However, I found this in the USA.

    You would need to check the P & P to the UK!

    I know it's not much help at the moment but Lakeland sometimes send out a "Customer Service " form which has a box asking for suggestions for products that customers would like them to stock . I suggested they stock waffle irons once and the following year waffle irons appeared in their catalogue so if we all ask them to stock mini loaf tin cases--
