Yes I have one. It's great for lifting and placing the SP and not getting elephant skin, but makes no difference to rolling out. SP doesn't dry out which is a real bonus.
Where did you get it? I was looking to get one (think it was made by sweetwise) the other year but you could only get it on import and it was very expensive and it had mixed reviews so didn't buy it
Hmm thanks Lynne - that might help me actually. Sometimes I think I need to rest while I'm rolling. It's something to think about.

AHi all.
Had a wonderful day, loved meeting you Andrea & Barbara, also Sarah too she's lovely. The wrap technique demo I went too was not what I was expecting but was good, got some ideas from it. The grotto one was good and I ended up going to buy the patchwork cutter for it straight after. Only other thing I bought was marvelous moulds goosebumps mat which I have been after for ages but didn't want to spend the money but it was down to £13.50 so seemed rude not too lol
I left before the last demo as my headache wouldnt shift so wanted to get in the road.
Need to sleep now lol

Lol love that comparison
AGlad you all had a lovely time at CI. :-)
I've wondered about the mat, might be worth getting I think. Anything that might help me get the SP on the cake has gota be worth a try.
AYeh, girlie's, i'm home, and skint.
Thank you all so much for the birthday messages, really touched by them.
Yes, yes, yes I had a fab day, met some of my cakey mates, had coffee, chat and group photo, what more do you need?
I bought a few things, met Debbie brown, bought her book which she signed and wrote Happy birthday for me . Also met Clair Bowman, asked her a few questions, Sarah told her it was my birthday and she gave me a cupcake mat, and had a photo, really nice lady. Am pooped, so good night all and I will partake in a glass of birthday bubbly.xxx
haha Nanny, don't you think I said exactly the same thing about me! God that fluffy jumper made me look giant size! pah! Mind you Mr Bradford did give it a stroke and said nice jumper
AAw there's lovely nanny, what a way to spend your birthday. :-)
Lovely photos tiddy. So glad you all enjoyed yourselves. :-)

Catsmum you are so lucky to have done all of those workshops and another next week so jealous, do you have photo's of your cakes from them would love to see them.
Petitecat glad you enjoy the fireworks.
Jean - glad you enjoyed the fireworks - it poured here so it put me off going out. If you put "fondant sheeter" into Ebay you will see the prices! Lol - look at the one with the pic of the rolling pin - the quip is "does the same as a sheeter but at a fraction of the cost"!!

This made me laugh.
Siany shame you had to leave before the last demo hope your headache eases off.
Nanny sound like you had a fab birthday how nice of claire to give you a mat and debbie to sign a happy birthday message in your book now you will always have something to remember spending your birthday at CI.
Fab photo's you all look great and no one needs to lose weight, glad you all had a lovely time and a nice meet up with each other.
. Wow those cakes are amazing I love the avatar one it's amazing.
AOmg, that avatar one is from Aberdare in South Wales, her fb page is Emma Jayne's cake design, she is outstanding, there is no words for this woman, check her out.
ARandom question how did you decide if to make your cake hobby a business or not??
AWel jel people (well I am living (just) in Ess*x). Nice pics - lovely group photo.
AQuick answer chezzabelle, I decided not to. How I came to that decision: I'm not good enough.
And please don't any of you jump on me! Don't make me afraid to say things like that. I'm not looking for reassurance or. compliments, just stating the facts. :-)

Roxy I think all but the Crying Babies and Noah's Ark are in my profile. Driving back on M25 after Noah's Ark workshop had to brake sharply and the topper "toppled"!:( However it is packed away for such times as I can refer to it and re-create it.
Glad you all had a lovely day at CI. So happy you met Debbie, Barbara. She is lovely, isn't she? Great photo with Mr B , Tiddy
Sleep tight all. Xx
AInterestingly Tiddy, you posted most of my favourites too. I also loved the Planet of the Apes cake. I took 175 photos yesterday.!
