Sock cupcakes (how to stop them moving in cases)

lrlrip

I have made some sock cupcakes for a school fayre. How do I get them to stop moving about in silicone cupcake cases. Do I use a blob of glue from a glue gun, double sided tape or a sticky fixer? Obviously I don't want to mark the socks.

I make sock cupcakes and use clear sticky dots - think they are sello tape ones. They hold the socks in the cases well but then peel off easily and don't damage the socks.

I don't find I need to fix the socks to the case, or the topping to the socks, the wrapping keeps it all in place.
I tried to add a picture, but it came out huge!

The socks are not that big and they are in cellophane boxes so they unfortunately move

Thanks, I will try them.

This is the boxes I am using:

What a lovely idea. Haven't looked in this thread for a while. Looks like I need to and "get up to date"!

Hi lrlrip, I put a sock cupcake on my last nappy cake and had the same problem. Nothing would stick to the cases so I changed them for the paper cases and used a bit of cellotape. (Think it peels off cleaner than double sided tape)

Love the pic, they look amazing!

Perhaps put the socks in paper cases, then put the paper cases inside the silicone ones?
