Hi cake makers :wave: all your cakes are amazing
I am after a little help please, I am a card crafter rather than a cake baker. My lovely SIL makes cakes for us all on out birthdays, I know she is wanting to subscribe to a magazine or online to improve her cake making skills, she also wants edible glitter, fondant die and some impression kits
I am hoping to put together a hamper for her birthday in the theme of baking, can anyone recommend the cheapest places to buy?
Thanks in advance0 -
Hello does anyone know if you can buy cigarillos from the supermarket?
Thanks
Try the chocolate trading company as I found that they were the cheapest when I did a wedding cake earlier this year. They are only online mind but prices were good. Also try The craft company online as they were really good for all cakey things and I saved loads using them.0 -
I find the craft company about the cheapest for cakey stuff. Quick delivery too. I'm not sure about magazines thoughHi cake makers :wave: all your cakes are amazing
