    Tell me your favourite online cake decorating supplies sites

    I've been buying the cake decorating magazines that are around at the moment and that together with the latest cake decorating threads on BB have given me a renewed desire to get some decent skills. My probably completely implausible dream is that I will get good enough at this to make a bit of a part time business out of it.

    There are a couple of decorating supplies shops in Perth but they're few and far between and everything is a fair hike from where I live. I also figure I might do less damage to the credit card if I buy online rather than wandering around a store putting all sorts of things in my shopping basket

    So, where do you all shop online? I use the everton website quite a bit for general kitchen stuff, and they have a decent supply of Wilton accessories but I figure there has to be a ton more out there.

    Thanks lovelies.

    Not sure where you are in Perth, but The Cake Gallery in Rockingham is awesome, very helpful and not exxy either.

    Online, check out Baking Pleasures, they have flat rate shipping.

    Thanks LS. Rockingham's a loooooong way - I'm in the Swan Valley - but I might go and check it out anyway.

    Thanks Nikky.

    ETA: Just checking out the Baking Pleasures website. I think I might have to retract the comment I made about not spending so much in an online store. Oh my goodness. I can't believe how much really cool stuff there is and I'm only up to page 4 of the "moulds".

    I've used the raspberry butterfly so many times recently with DS1 birthday and then a baby shower so I second that suggestion, they are awesome

    Moulds/cake tins are one place that finding a good local cake supply shop ca help the budget. Lots of them rent out cake tins so for a fraction of the cost of buying you have access to lots of different shapes and sizes.

    Hey lulu, Google kerensas and it'll come up with my sisters website! She's got some really lovely stuff and basically started the business because she was so frustrated at trying to get anything reasonable at a half decent price in Perth, I'm sure if you haven't already found what you're after shell be more than happy to help

    I've got a decent store near me that hires out cake tins and there are heaps, but for whatever reason my girls like to come up with cakes that require constructing, cutting, creating etc. No simple Dora shape for them ;-)

    Thanks HSM. Will check it out
