Don't Be A Square

groovy baby cupcake with modelling paste topper

"Oh no!" I thought when my delivery of new Vestli House cupcake cases arrived in the mail looking surprisingly "square". The Scandinavian company Vestli House produce some of the best quality and gorgeously designed cupcake cases on the market, packaged in individual boxes they always look a little square but not the extent that they won't drop into the cupcake pan.

I promptly contacted the store where I purchased them from & attached a photograph of how the cases usually fit into the cupcake pan compared to ones that just arrived.

To their credit Cupcake House promptly sent me more packs of the three liners I'd ordered at no charge. These arrived still a little squarer than usual but were fine to bake in.

Since I have recommended Vestli House in the past I wrote to Vestli directly to ask what would cause the squareness of the cases, they replied...

Dear Jeniffer,

Thanks for informing me. I can see what you are meaning. This is not how

they are going to look like. It seems like the paper cups has got to much

humidity and therefore lost the shape. You know, it is paper and this is a

natural products and loose the shape if they are stoked in high humidity

over long time. 

I don´t know when or who you purchased it from. But the humidity problem is

not from stocking it in your home/store.  

Did you just buy them? And form whom? 

If you are emailing me your address I will send you new liners to compensate

you.

Looking forward to hear from you.

Best Regards

Hmmm, so humidity is the culprit, I presume that would be in shipping. I didn't take up the offer for more cases through Vestli House as the second lot from Cupcake House I could bake in. 

I was impressed by the prompt reply and action from the company & retailer to rectify the problem. So I'm still highly recommending Vestli House cupcakes cases, for the quality of the paper, the lack of colour fade on baking and of course their gorgeous designs! Perfect for special occasions and with the elegant packaging they make a lovely gift for a baker.'Astrid' by Vestli House
