    Hi Ladsmadd, I know quite a few have sold theirs for £1.50 each so this would be quite a good price ... whatever you decide remember to add some for your time etc :) ... I know that John Lewis sell this for £4 so even £2 each would be fab.

    How did you manage to make it for 80p? mine worked out at about £1.17 when I did them for a lady on here and I made up 15 for her.

    Hi thought id post mine. a bit gutted as i bought cones from ebay and never got them she never replied to emails and i finnally won a dispute on 21st dec bit late to order more :(
    Luckily my mum had bought a mahoosive role of cellophane as she makes cakes and uses it when they are finished,
    so i borrowed her heat sealer and made my own cones.... these are a massive achievemnet for me as i am not a crafty person at all!

    I put them in cups and wrapped them in cellophane as pressies for the teachers at my sons class! yes there are that many! i decided to get them normal cups and not xmas cups so theyu can use them all year :)

    Where can I get the cellophane cones from? I looked up the ebay seller people have recommended but it says she's no longer a registered seller :confused:
