Cupcake Cases

I'm having these cupcake cases, they're adorable! Arrived a couple of days ago but I think I need some muffin cases for some larger cupcakes too I think.

https://imaginativeicing.co.uk/store/Bun-Cases-Carousel-Assorted-Colours-x-100-cup-cake-cases.html

Can anyone find any muffin cases that might work well with the cupcake cases? Or will I have to start again?

It's a carnival theme - mainly with red and ivory, and splashes of blue/aqua. The cupcakes are going to be iced with plain icing, with a flake in to mimic seaside ice-cream! (sounds crazy, but looks awesome)

Any advice welcome, I'm stuck!!!!
I love surprises!

    The gingham or spotty muffin cases on your original site would work well :) or they have plain ones in a variety of colours - why not plain red, red spotty or the "rainbow" ones?

    Hi LE3, Gingham and spotty cases would work well with our theme but there isn't anything spotty/gingham elsewhere in the wedding so they wont match. I could go with a plain colour - but I couldn't choose one that would be best. Maybe pastel yellow?

    I'm happy to hear other suggestions!

    He doesn't like the visual look of the cupcake cases. And yes, he's driving me insane!

    Can't really help with your colour issues (other than just going with the ones you like - is he really that fussed?!) but if you're baking your own have a trial run using the wedding cupcake cases before the day - I baked ours in lovely yellow cases to match our theme only to find that as soon as I took them out of the oven the cases peeled back from the cakes, leaving them all useless so I had to start from scratch using standard white ones from the supermarket. Not exactly what I needed the day before driving 200 miles up to the venue!

    I've since had this site recommended for their cases, don't know if there are anythat would match your theme though
