Handmade nappy cakes can be created using baby items from any shop you would like to specify, in any colour and be as small or as big as you like. Containing items for both the baby and the new mum, prices start from £10. I can ship to anywhere in the UK for a cost starting from £6.50 per cake.

Cautiously optimistic
Well, I promised to keep you up to date with any developments after placing some of my nappy cakes into the local maternity hospital and ....
I bravely ventured in just under one week later to see how they were selling (if at all!). I have to be honest, I was petrified - nobody wants to go into anywhere and be told their product isn't selling, but .... four had gone in the last 3 selling days. YAY!!!!
To say I was happy was an under-statement. I was at first relieved and then absolutely ecstatic. Although four may not sound like many, to me its fantastic. It helps reinforce the fact that I'm not just making these and being the only one who likes them - other people like them too :0)
Also, at the fair I went to yesterday I sold 3 nappy cakes and 5 individual cupcakes so a very good result there as well.
I don't want to sound pessimistic but when so many other things are going wrong in my life, the fact that something is going right (however small) is a real boost.
I'll post again with any developments. Watch this space.
