Cupcake Cases, Liners, Papers & Wrappers

                                         The Good

Cupcake liners can match your theme, just be pretty or act as an inspiration just like these striped cases are for me. I'm thinking carnival, fairs, perhaps beach box, or jump ahead to a candy cane theme for next Christmas.

How fabulous are these cupcake cases! Free standing cups that you could also use for small desserts or candies. Best thing about these cups is they don't stain! The design stays true without ugly grease staining.

Recently launched; cupcake cases by Paper Eskimo,  an Australian producer of  designer stationery & party ware.  The cups come in packs of 25. The striped design is available in a choice of four colours, they also come in star or polka dot designs.

Paris Cutler of Planet Cake had this to say at the product launch "I have tried nearly everything on the market and there is nothing that matches the quality of the Paper Eskimo range of baking cups."

I bought mine online at Little Betsy Baker

                        Not so Good

Robert Gordon another Australian company, that produces great ceramics, cakes stands & the like (I want one of their lovely wire stands) also produce designer cupcake cases. 

The cases "look good" until you actually bake in them. The thin paper is of poor quality and stains badly,  the paper becomes translucent as it draws fats from the cakes, the resulting cakes look unappealing. 

I'd recommend giving the cases a miss unless the company improves the quality.
