No pictures of those molds showing maddy.

Just saw an ad on Foxtel for a new magazine out called Baked & Delicious.  It comes with a gift of a silicone baking dish or decorating tubes etc each edition.  Maddy, you just have to buy this one    Read about it here, you probably have already bought it

   strange....they are showing on my screen...will have another check.

re: the silicone baking stuff....I did have a look, but they are the cheap sort of silicone.
I'm not that fussed on them for cooking, and usually buy the approved branded ones.
You will find the cheap silicone forms from the budget stores, smell bad whilst cooking....so I'd hate to think what they consist of.

I just brought the first issue of the Baked and Delicious. Came with 6 silicon cupcake mold's. Personally I think the issues would be a waste of money. Only has 9 recipes. ok for $2.99 for the first issue, then $7.99 for issue 2, then $14.99 each after that. I read somewhere that there will be 60 issues so thats a total of over $880. I could buy a lot of good quality cook ware for that price and cookbooks if I wanted. Just my opinion but I wont be buying anymore.

Yes that's a rip off Mandi.  They suck you in with the cheap first edition then put the price way too high after that.  I'd want more than 9 recipes in a magazine.  Thanks for the thumbs down

I bought the first edition of Baked and delicious as well. When I got home I wondered why I had done it as I have so many lovely cookbooks.
I did buuy the New Idea Masterclass magazine for DD. She is fine with cooking but it has lots of the basics with variations. (Seeing she will be chief cook and bottle washer when we are away)

Sounds like it might be good for my dtr.  Will look out for it, would love to send it down to her, thanks Cookie. 

My camera won't be here until next Wednesday    was a mix up with the order. 

The skewer/holder thingies I ordered have arrived, boy they are bigger than I thought they would be!  Will use them next week.

I love there stuff CP.Their customer service is fabulous.

[Cuilidh]

I used to buy their stuff when we lived in Scotland many years ago and miss them now we are here in Australia.  Good to hear they are still going strong and their customer service is still as good as it was all those years ago.  So many companies are just so lax on that side of their businesses these days - even though it is a tough retail trading market.  I must take a look at their site again and see what they are stocking these days.

PS   Just tried looking at their site and couldn't download it - CP, could you give me their url please.  Many thanks.
