Caramel nibbles, I'm kind of regretting it now as my bf said they look rude! :o

I've never heard of caramel nipples, oops I mean nibbles. What brand are they? Where do you get them? I'm only asking cos I have to bake a cake for my daughter's 12th birthday next weekend and she's a bit of a chocoholic so I think she would love your cake. If you lived closer I'd pay you to make me one!

MM, I think you should make one of these
 
For our end of reception class teachers gift I arranged and involved the whole class in making this memory tree.
I gave every child a flower and leaf shape along with a letter explaining that one was for child to write something and have their own photo on the back and the other shape for the parent to write something about their childs first year in school, memory etc
It was a slog to get 2/3rds of the class involved and in the end few days I took to taking a few kids off with a classroom helper to finish the project.
The teacher loved it and the parents hung about so it could be presented to her.
Now I'm thinking what can I start planning for our yr1 teacher ;)

There's a lady in Facebook called paper panda, she is truly amazing :)
I bought her starter kit, that's one of her designs.
I've designed a couple of my own ready to cut but am busy doing a heart for my fella for valentines first

I've just ordered the starter pack! Can't wait for it to arrive....so excited!! :D

Haha and so it begins.... Btw I'm not responsible for your new addition :)
 
It's a design you print onto paper (in reverse) then cut out, this one was very intricate and took me a while, I got a callus on my finger, I also unmolded the candle too soon n slammed it down on my little finger which went black n I couldn't bend it for couple of days.... He's worth it though lol

How did I miss this? That's amazing!

How do you do it???????

Quick! I've only got 5 days left. Xxxxx
 
Oooooh made one of these last month for my OH's birthday! Here it is :)

Did you make the piggies yourself? It's fantastic!
 

That looks fabulous, Bert!

I do have to correct peeps here though, I didn't make the cake in the photo that I posted. It was a very talented person elsewhere in the world.

I will have a go though. Let us know if she liked it!

Oh didn't you ? Still, I'm sure you would make just as good a job of it :)
