Does anyone know where I could get hold of stencils in Ireland or the UK? I am making a leaving cake for a colleague and as she is a plant specialist I would like to stencil ferns in buttercream on the sides. I have the idea perfectly in my mind, and I've researched the technique but now I simply cannot find the stencil I need. Help!

I know it is probably a bit big for your use but it might be worth asking if they can get/ produce a smaller one if you like it.

Would you be able to adapt a cutter for your use? http://www.sugarshack.co.uk/index.html and search for fern.

Good luck.
