Want tickets for Cake International, the hottest baking and sugarcraft event this spring? You’ve come to the right place.
Three years ago when I started this site, I never imagined the entire world it would seem, would go completely baking crazy. Not only do we have a glut of books and TV shows there are new magazines, new exhibitions and swathes of baking equipment in high street stores you’d previously needed to have hunted out online to find.
Cake International was an already established sugarcraft show run by the rather serious sounding International Craft and Hobby Fair Ltd, it’s sugar craftier sister takes place at the NEC Birmingham before Christmas but this year sees an additional more baking focussed show at London’s ExCel.
It’s just down the road from me so I’ll certainly be popping along but if you’d like to win tickets too you can enter my giveaway below.

It’s a bit boring but it has to be easy-grip disposable piping bags. They take away the “I love doing this, but I hate the washing up” factor!
Vickii says
I don’t have one but I think a cake turntable would be indispensible for frosting.
nikki hilton says
my favorite thing is my hands, the most important for making a cake!

Small star shape nozzle all the way!

I’m new to baking and cake decorating and i don’t think i could live without my Wilton 1M nozzle, its so quick and easy to make professional looking cupcakes! 🙂
Lucy, Vanilla Frost says
I would be lost without my ‘icing smoothers’ – the white plastic things that look like they belong in a plasterer’s tool box. Essential for ironing out lumps and bumps.
Roopa says
I love the good old cupcake decorations like sprinkles and stars.
Melissa Hall says
my side scraper from Lakeland

My favourite is my hand hel mixer, I know it’s cheating but it means I can do it much quicker and make twice as many cakes!
Nancy Bradford says
My turntable. Couldn’t get by without it.
Danielle says
My off-set spatula, I’d be lost without it, makes filling and icing cakes so much easier! As for what’s top of my wish list, a proper turntable – my homemade makeshift one definitely needs to be upgraded!

Fav decorations would have to be spinkles.

It’s a tie between bowl scrapers, piping bags and the pastry blending tool.

It must be the wire-cutter that evenly cuts across any cake – evenly and perfectly every time. I have had it since my first trip to the USA about 14 years ago and it’s the best $2 I have ever spent!

My favourite decorating items are some tiny silicon moulds that actually came from a kiddy modelling kit. There are moulds for leaves, hearts, flowers, etc. I love them because I melt chocolate into them then turn out perfect little choccie shapes 🙂 @piperanddaisy
Antonia Rookley says
Has to be my turntable!
DaisyElizabeth says
I think its a toss-up between the turntable and disposable piping bags. Too many times did I have grease seep through cheap piping bags, make my hands messy, make it hard to pipe, and I only had one, so now I can use as many as I like with different tips without having to completely empty the bag and refill it with a different colour. Actually, Im pretty sure the disposable piping bags clinch the win 🙂
