  • Hi ladies (haven't spotted any men here!)...

    I've just finished reading the WHOLE thread (taken about 4 evenings!)
    I made my first nappy cake about 6 months ago, and then made a pretty similar one a couple of months later... (both for friends)
    I have a craft fair coming up (I home sell greetings cards etc to friends and family but need to make some pennies, so am attempting a mini craft fair, 2-8pm in a local pub!), and as I have free reign, I am also taking some other bits and pieces to sell (or take orders for more likely, if anyone is interested), like magic reindeer food, homemade cards, a small baby bouquet (my first) and plan to take a baby cake... as I'm going to be taking a range of different things, do you think its ok just to have one 2 tier on display?

    Sorry to bombard you! I hope to become a regular poster on here now I have discovered you! I joined MSE yonks ago, but seem to alway log in on hubby's details! So have rejoined today!

    Chat soon,
    Sara

    PS - Am creamed and about to go to bed, so will post a pic of my previous nappy cake ASAP!

    Hi Sara welcome to the nut house LOL :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I did a craft stall in August and I found the 3 tiers and cupcakes were definitely the most popular. So if you can make up one of each and see how they go.
    Good luck and don't forget to post some piccies x
