Thanks girls, for the encouragement and tips! Trillian - that list is great. Some of them I have from our rule book, but others were new to me. I have been considering the size of my cupcakes - I usually do the large (50mm base, I think, muffin tray size) ones, but was thinking this might be too big for a more "old fashioned" traditional cupcake. The other size I normally do are the mini ones (30mm base) for finger food type parties, but they'll be too small. Think I'll have to look for something in between - perhaps 44mm. Then I'll need a muffin tray to match! Not sure how well the decorations I normally use will work out on a smaller size, given they are cherries. Will have to do lots of practice!
Would love others to enter their local shows too - come on Astrid! Want to hear all about it!
I have just the tin you want. Found it at House I think. Takes the Aspen patty pans (which are almost impossible to get down here!) Really need a second one myself.
Our local Show is not until October, hoping the competition booklet is out soon. One of the Kinder Dads is a member of the show Society, so I will just need to hassle him. I suppose that is one good reason for not getting the job as Show Secretary, I have a chance of entering the comps!
