You really need to have an idea what you want and phone them up and they will tell you availability and cost.They don't have an online catalogue.
Under postal it tells you where to phone and how to order.Hope this helps.

Just finished my first batch of cakes for my friends birthday tomorrow

The cupcake is made out of slippers from primark

& the slice of cake is a microfibre towel headwrap from poundland


I didnt know how to wrap them up so ended up going into Bakers Oven & asking if they wouldnt mind giving me one of their cake boxes - they happily gave me two I just hope she doesnt eagerly sit down expecting a box full of edible cakes.

OOhh a big reindeer! Now that sounds like fun. Maybe a box of maltesers would be good to replace the soap

A reindeer, complete with it's own 'reindeer poo' !!!!
Oooh gotta give this a go now, I could attach the reindeer poo poem label. :j A job for tomorrow, thanks ambernora (although I will probably be cursing you when I'm trying to fold it :rotfl: :rotfl: it was stressful enough with the flannel logs and muffins)

This looks great, I especially like your cup cake! Where did you get the cup cake case from, it's different from the others I've seen.

Rose Kitten Those stripey ones look lovely. I have now got the pink muffin cases but think they are a bit smaller than those brown ones you have used going by other posts. I ordered some brown ones too but they are even smaller and not very good quality. I had to throw about 6 away as they were crushed to bits. I have managed to fit a cheap flannel in them for flannel muffins but wouldnt even get one sock in.
Will have another look for pink socks but think only the small slipper socks will fit into the pink cases. Was wondering whether some nice knickers might work otherwise as they are for teenagers.

When I first saw a case with a pair of socks
in them I was made up got the socks and
they just would not fit and the one with
two flannels in well that was a disaster too.
I realise now of course after much struggling
these cases come in different sizes.those brown
ones I bought on ebay I made sure when I was
looking that I went for ones with a 7cm diameter
as my strawberry ones are 5cm diameter.I noticed
when I was looking there were some that were
even smaller than my strawberry ones and these
must be really tiny.Perhaps if they are too small
for a pair of socks would one sock fit in them and
you could a pair of cakes together one sock in each.
A pair of undies in each one ? Those larger ones I
got were very reasonable they were I think only
£1 + P&P think it worked out about £2.25 in total.
One things for sure if you are using flannels you
have to use two in the larger ones or a very thick
flannel.

While I remember Primark are selling lovely underwear
with cupcakes on them.

Aw and your all going to go mad here I bought
socks with cupcakes on them the cupcakes
have diamonte stones as decorations.heres the
dilema I cannot remember where I bought them.
I got them home forgot all about them and found
them tonight.Oh if I had brains I would be dangerous.

These are lovely what a good idea uaing the cake box
its so effective.Now its in our little hall of fame on the
front page along with the pint of Guinness made on
here earlier.

I bought this in the Works shop earlier this year they still
sell these ripple machines in the craft section still
only £2.this might be a useful item for anyone
wanting to make their own cases



in the kids craft section this ripple machine
I have had a little practice and thought it
would look good to use on the cup cakes
as cases especially in the metalic card
wrapped round each one.
it only cost £2 and you get cards &
practice papers with it.
