    oh and do u tend to use size 2 or 3? or agian whteve is cheapest?


    Hiya, I use either sz 2 or 3 pampers or huggies like RustyFlange whatever is on offer. Like to stick to these brands as they are seen as best quality and nappy cakes are gifts. I use Tesco nappies on my own children.

    I'm doing a Christening cake for Sunday so will be using size 4 nappies. Luckily my youngest is in size 4 so I always have them in.

    I feel rougher than a rough thing on rough water :( I fell asleep on the sofa this morning about half 7 ish and woke with a start when I heard my daughter crying through the baby monitor! I am headin upstairs in a few mins as my daughter is due a sleep so will see if the pain stays away to let me get an hour! Thanks hun :) X

    How bizarre, ... I did a christening cake a while back and the woman called me and did it all over the phone she said the girl was 1 and she didn't know what size nappies or anything she was in she asked what I suggested and I just relayed everything my daughter was in lol ... luckily I got a phone call from her saying how perfect it was. but I used size 4+ activefit nappies on that one. Just made me remember when you said about always having in nappies like me :)

    Had an order to do today for a neutral 3 tier so i've used the M&S duck for the first time. Sorry girls if you are bored of seeing the spotty ribbons but I am loathe to buy any more until I've used up what i've got. My friend ordered it and she prefers browns to yellows. I will try to get some lemon and plain ribbons in shortly I promise LOL :D
