Christmas Cupcake Boxes

Fluffysheep38

I'm going to make some Christmasy cupcakes for presents this year and would like to get a proper cupcake box to present them in. I'm thinking of 4 in each.

Where do people buy these boxes? I'd ideally like a Christmasy feel to them.

Thanks for any help.

I've found these ones on Ebay:

Amazon also have plain individual ones which you could decorate:

You didn't ask for recipes but I wanted to share this one anyway (I will also be baking cupcakes but not for gifts and want to try these):

Thank you for the replies. Unfortunately haven't got any of those stores near me!

I went with the eBay ones. The girl seemed friendly enough!

I did think about going to the supermarket and buying a few cakes and asking them to put one in each box lol!

The Christmas Pudding cupcakes look really good, might give them a go. I have my own recipe for the cake part which I've perfected for my oven etc. but I could still use the topping part!

Thanks again for the advice/help.
