    I found these on the internet
    and am going to post them on
    the hamper thread as well
    they are tea towel cakes
    these are coffee & tea cakes
    looking at this I would say its
    a cardboard tube,theirs are
    lace edged,I would say better
    stood on a cake board and
    a tea towel wrapped around
    and tied with a bow,
    then filled with stuff
    I would imagine wrapped in
    cellophane these would be
    very effective and may prove
    a cheaper soloution to using
    a basket if you have run out
    or cant find one cheap enough.
    I have seen these types of
    tea towels very cheap in the £
    shops Home & Bargain etc

    this is something that could be
    made for next christmas thats
    a bit different,maybe put a
    different twist on it as regards
    contents,I was thinking of a
    tea or coffee one

    How can I make a Flannel Birthday cake, what do I use for the candels and how many flannels would I need.

    (off to peak at first page just in case its there)

    Was just about to throw this salmon tin in the recycle bin, then noticed it could be the perfect size for a flannel cake.
    Maybe if you were to spray paint it or cover with decorative paper or embellishments, could possibly work :confused: or is it just me who's finally lost the plot :o

    Not quite an imaginative idea but I would use ordinary birthday cake candles :confused:

    Noooooo that looks good actually, but obviously you would want to jazz up the tin a bit I guess. Well done, LOVE the recycling thing! :D
