  The 'Partridge & Pear' designs are continued across a number of festive porcelain platters, which are ideal for serving your Christmas feasts! I think that the heart-shaped platters below would also work well as a trinkets tray - I'm going to get one to put my jewellery in! However, perhaps the more traditional use for the bowls is for figs and nuts! My favourite product in the range is the cake stand, where the heart and dove motifs are combined to very decorative effect. (I love combining patterns together for a pattern overload!) I'm looking forward to using this for my Christmas cupcakes and mince pies! Images copyright Kitchen Craft 2012

In case you couldn't see all of the designs on the cupcake cases yesterday I am adding my drawings, which show more detail :) (Click on the images to enlarge further). Images copyright Kitchen Craft 2012

' Sweetly Does It ' is probably most famous for cupcakes and baking - so what better way to round up my blog posts on the brand than to show you some of my new cupcake case and pick designs that have just been launched! Above are romantic lace and polka dot designs with complimentary filigree chandelier and heart picks (- perfect for giving to the one you love?), as well as a quirky animal prints set - with a nod to fashion with matching handbag and shoe picks. Ideal for cupcake baking with the girls! There is also a 'country rose' style pack for a more traditional cupcake tea party... ... and gold and silver filigree packs with matching butterfly and dove picks that are perfect for weddings, christenings and other special occasions.

Following on from last week's post on chocolate moulds, I thought I would today show you some cake stencils that I have also designed for Sweetly Does It . The stencils provide an easy way to decorate cakes and come in a variety of designs from filigree swirls to 'Happy Birthday' and Christmas motifs. I am not known for my cake decorating skills, so luckily for me a more skillful baker has shown how the stencils can be used to make unique cake designs. It looks so simple perhaps I will actually give it a go...! Images copyright Kitchen Craft 2012
