vikki louise - I have some of the striped ones - yes you can fit them in but they arent very deep thats just me being picky I think though as I would like them to be a bit taller! But yes they do fit in

Could anyone please let me know the page number on this HUGE thread or a weblink to making the flannel swiss roll, sock cupcake/muffins and the glove muffins/cupcakes.
Would love to have a go at these but there are so many pages to go through.
Thankyou :j

Morning Everyone!

I was taking a look back at the first page as well, didn't realise there were so many photos posted on there!

Can someone tell me who the third photo along from the left (the towel cake row) belongs to? I'd like to know how many towels they used for those little mini cakes please?

Thanks

I've just been to Hillsborough to look for some fabric for my wedding dress. Popped into Home Bargains and they have 2 tier cake stands (White with pink dots) for £3.99. I've just bought 10 as I am having "high tea" instead of a sit down meal at our wedding do.

Was going to make MIL(to be) a tea tray with nice biccies, etc for Christmas but may use one of these instead - then ask for it back to use at the wedding in true MSE style :rotfl:

Yes I sometimes use a glue dot but sometimes they don't stick well. I now roll the flannel that tight round it it won't budge!! obviously depends what shape your soap etc is but I use a heart or star shaped one or a chill pill now and yes if you do it tight enough they dont move!
