Just quickly ... I went in there today and got 1 pack of 5 socks in pinks for my DD and they were £1.50, then also got some for my DS for £1.50 aswell loads cheap in the sales ... also my local one now sells the washcloths in green, think there was 3 x green and 3 x green spotty

Well that's just typical, I have a draw full of tesco socks :mad: and recently managed to get some of the washcloths from Ethel Austins after hunting weeks for some (haven't done anything with them yet).

Well done angelkay, how's it going with the chemist, has it brought you lots of orders x

thanks

he's sold 2 and had a special order for one made of newborn sized nappies - which was weird as they would have needed to use the cake straight away?!? I have had more orders from mates but as folk here know that the cakes in the chemist are mine they are coming to me and getting them £5 cheaper than the shop lol at least it gets folk talking about them ad gets my name mentioned.

i also send one to my friend in edinburgh and she took in it past her local baby boutique and they want to talk to me about stocking them too i'm just waiting on her emailing me back with the details not sure how thats going to work tho with me being an hour north of aberdeen!

im just sat now looking for boxes for baby cup cakes but having no luck as yet

Have been really quiet on the Nappy Cake front lately, hence no posts! I've finally had an inquiry through my website from someone wanting to purchase a cake.

I know people have suggested a courier firm on here before but I can't remember which one you recommended? Anyone any ideas who it was?

Many thanks!

Depends on the size of the cake ....

2 and 3 tiers I use parcel 2 go on a 72 hour courier which is usually delivered within approx 48 depending on how busy they are.
For single tiers I use royal mail as they are cheaper

Shadsy I didn't know you had a website? could you pm me the link please

Candy isn't it typical! ... never seen the washcloths in there before but the socks I got for the kids are fab!

Angelkay - Ask in your local cake shop, they may well be able to sell you some? I know I can get mine for 57p a box which will hold 4 cupcakes

I was just wondering with those of you who make baby sock cupcakes, do you use the silicone cupcake, or paper cupcake cases?

Thanks
Debbie

www.payperparcel.co.uk are actually cheaper than parcel2go now. They use the same courier (DHL) and most of mine are delivered the next day.

JDo you think this is ok and doesn't look too plain or anything? Am just a bit unsure as have only did pink and blue before but thought I would do one suitable for a boy or a girl, so went with the white and yellow.
