Shopping for Goodies

It's Saturday afternoon and so far this weekend I've baked absolutely nothing. In fact I've cooked nothing full stop. I will try and rectify that tomorrow.

I have been to Lakeland in search of equipment though and chose a new muffin tin, a mini muffin tin and a cooling rack for my birthday from Jeff. Will be good and save them until it really is my birthday!

I also got a magic carpet liner for my baking trays - nothing at all sticks to them which is helpful when it comes to washing up as I am the messiest baker in the world I think. I get icing sugar and flour everywhere.

Got some bun cases too. Tiny silver ones and big blue and white spotty ones. Have an idea of what's going in the big ones.

As I was on a roll with buying cakey bakey stuff, we walked up to the nice cake shop in Gatley (Martyn Jackson Celebration Cakes) and got some edible glitter. They have loads of colours (which makes me ridiculously excited) and I want to get the full set eventually. I really wanted orange but need to plan an orange cup cake first! Went for silver which will go with most things (am I getting sensible now I'm approaching 32???) and disco blue for the new bun cases.

A word of warning - Edible glitter cannot be digested by the human body!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally chose some brown and white spotty bun cases which I thought would be good for chocolate muffins and some teeny tiny little cases that I don't know what to do with. I'll have a think about that....
