Cupcake Bakers, Prepare to Drool. Glorious Cake Stands from Talking Tables

I feel like I'm getting my own back on the many bakers I follow on Twitter today. I can't bake & when you post photos of your amazing cakes, I get terribly jealous. And hungry.


Well today it's your turn to drool! Disposable cake & cupcake stands from www.TalkingTables.co.uk

These beauties can be assembled in under 30 seconds, so they are ideal for showcasing your wares at markets & fairs. Your stall will definitely stand out in the crowd.

Even more appetising is the price, £9.65 for this three tier Pastries & Pearls stand. Although billed as disposable, the card is very high quality, so you could definitely reuse for a number of months if you use gently.

There's also a cake stand for your classic Victoria Sponge.

Talking Tables also have matching cupcake cases and toppers, £5.50 for a pack of 20. Would be beautiful for a vintage style wedding.

This is the Village Fete themed set. My son has already decided he wants this for his birthday party, which is five months away. There are several party themes on the www.TalkingTables.com site, so if you have an event coming up, why not have a browse?

Thanks to www.lilypinkbakery.com for providing the cupcakes as 'models' for this 'shoot'!

Amazing Optical Illusion Bags for Kooky Boys & Girls from Jump From Paper

Combining optical illusion & fashion is a winner in The World of Kitsch's book. www.JumpFromPaper.com kindly provided me with my very own Hola! bag to wrap my eyes around. These cartoonesque bags are a fashion talking point. In fact I challenge you to use one for a day and not get comments on it. It's great as a laptop bag, and there are designs for both men and women, with worldwide shipping from www.JumpFromPaper.com

I can't wait to see which products pop up next from this cool brand.

Boozy Buns from The Lily Pink Bakery

Adults only cupcakes from Claire at www.LilyPinkBakery.com in Belfast. Found at vintage fairs & St. George's Market, but also available for custom orders.

Not just for the grown ups though, check out the rainbow cake. I tried it at the Frock Around the Clock fair in Bangor last week and can highly recommend.
