    I made some towel pamper cakes for a sale, and thought I would show them on here. I think I have managed to get photobucket to work, so here goes: (crossing fingers for luck)

    Bargain - i would definitely pay that and think I had a good deal. I made some - not as nice looking as yours, and just wondered whether my pricing was right - so thanks for sharing!:)

    Thanks Lastminutej

    The one with the purple edging cost £25.00, although it all depends on what someone chooses for the "ingredients".

    Thanks lastminutej

    I changed the feathers to ribbon and it makes quite a difference to the cake. Here it is:

    Thanks for sharing your cakes Sally, they are lovely.

    I bought some faux Gerberas from Wilkinsons today for half price (originally 47p each) so only paid £1.88 for 8 stems. I hope they look nice on my 1st cakes for mothers day.
