    ooooh im inspired.

    Im a perfectionist so i have trawled the net and come across this company for packaging supplies, mufin cases and muffin boxes.

    http://www.cakescookiesandcraftsshop.co.uk/

    It seems quite good as you can buy 1 box if you want or 100 where as most places will only let you buy a minimum of 10.

    They also do cello bags and ribbon etc etc.

    I have added loads to my basket already but holding of hitting the buy button until i work out exactly what i need as i always buy to much.

    I cant wait to get started now, but sssssssh dont tell my other half he'll go mad at me saying its still only july.

    ALSO i thought about making the swiss rolls using tea towels instead - has anyone done this - do they look ok.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T

    :T than themselves - you know who you are!

    Hi Guys, have not been on here for ages since discovering how to make flannel cakes. I have finished making the cakes so to speak but am having real trouble sourcing bath pearls/bath beads for the top of my muffin cakes. Since these are my wedding favors I am beginning to panic.......can anyone help with telling me where to buy approx 80 bath pearls please.
    Thanks Hilary


    This might be a bit late but I bought a box of 50 from Paperchase in the sale, here, Paperchase is a shop within Borders, they were all cherry scented and red glittery and look great on top of the cakes.
  • i read somewher about making these and spent past few hrs trying to find them again as would like to try and make them thanks

    I think I got mine from Wilkos last year -pack of brown, cream and coffee colours. It was either there or Poundland.
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    I bought mine from Primark, 4 for £1.50 I think. They are good quality, nice and thick.
