    You guys are all so busy it's brilliant. I am hoping to get started as soon as my new kitchen is in and the inspector has been round.

    Just went into Morrisons at lunch and brought a large plastic cake box for £4.00 and 100 animal cupcake cases for 99p!

    Can you not get help? That's a lot for free. You can make sugarpaste out of marshmallows and icing sugar if that helps ;)

    Hi esmer. yes it is a lot for free but the advertising i'll get more than makes up for it! Ive done it as cheap as i can and its cost me about £30, not bad for 300 cupcakes! Sadly there is noone to help me, so on sat when I have to display the cupcakes, I'll have to take my 7 month old daughter with me!

    think I will stick with cupcakes though. I eat a cupcake and I feel all happy and satisfied, where I dont feel satisfied with one of those cakepops...........
