£2.15 in my local sugar craft shop. They're really over priced on eBay.

I've had no option there is nowhere near me that has them......£10 for 1M & 2D and a large coupler....would of been £8 for just the 2 nozzles and was undecided whether I needed a coupler, but ordered it anyway.

I must start selling to recoup some of the money I am spending on there !!

Just bought a copy of July's...Good to Know Recipes and there is a lovely cupcake recipe at the back....Raspberry & Honey Cupcakes....but the recipe uses Kerrygold Honey Spread instead of butter for both the cupcakes and the frosting and i've looked everywhere today and still cannot find any in the supermarkets.

Hiya Cherydee, sorry about taking so long to reply, had probs with my internet. Yep, they are from Ebay, heres the seller - http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Gifts-Partys-and-Pounds?_trksid=p4340.l2563

they have all different packs, I actually wanted the one with all the mickey mouse and friends characters, but by the time I wanted them they had sold out! They're back on there now though

The Kerrygold website lists the stores where the Honey spread is available. I don't know whether is has just been launched in some regions in the UK and not others.

Hope that helps.

I am making my friends wedding cakes, she is getting married on Friday, she wants a fruit 8" at the top, a chocolate 10" in the middle and a white chocolate 12" at the bottom (they wont be stacked, they are seperate tiers) and also choc/white choc cupcakes. I have made all the cakes, just need to ice them tomorrow

Will get pics when its all done! Also here are some simple cakes I have made before, I usually only do this as a hobby so nothing too spectacular! But I have made a few more since with roll out icing on top but no pics, but the wedding cake is the first big project and Im really looking forward to seeing the finished result!

Have you tried these http://www.cake-stuff.com/cake-boards-oblong-boards-drums-c-10_248.html

I know they have been mentioned on here before, I haven't ordered from them yet but most things on here seem to quite reasonable.
