  • CanI ask where you got the swiss roll containers from to please? I am finding it very tricky to wrap in cellophane as they tend to to lose their shape a bit then?! Thanks very much

    Hi Giggle & Carlymummy.....Irishgirl kindly gave me the contact info, it is a packaging company close by to where I live, but I hadn't heard of it...we are in N.ireland though. They are deep fill ones and 100 cost me 12 pounds...don't think I can post photos yet, but if anyone wants to see what they look like pm me and I'll send a photo...

    Hi everyone, I have a quick question and I'm sorry if this has been asked before!

    What size socks do you all use for the sock cupcakes?

    Also, is there a tutorial somewhere about wrapping the cellophane on the nappy cakes. I've been making mine for friends and family but have just started selling them in a shop too and I'm not happy with how I wrap them. It seems to take me hours and the underneath is not very neat. Need to get them looking better if I'm selling to the public!

    Thanks in advance x
