Hi I was just curious where does everyone buy their cake containers, boards, ect. i'm just starting out and i go to a local place but they don't sell in bulk . There has to be a cheaper way! icon_confused.gif

It depends where you live. You might be able to find someone close so you can pick stuff up or try bgpaper.com. They sell pkging. by the piece or in a full case.

I feel for ya! My local cake supply shop owner orders boxes and things in bulk for me. One time I ran out of my 10x10 boxes and had to run to Michael's. Ticked me off when I had to pay over $1 for this box, when buying in bulk got me a price of less than 30 cents!!

I buy most of my boards & boxes from www.papermart.com but I also use Pfeil & Holing for some stuff. Just depends on what I need. I think they are in California and I am in PA but I have felt that the shipping was reasonable. I don't have anywhere local to go so this is the best for me. Pfeil & Holing is in NY so the shipping is even better for me...

I am the same way...I use a local store and get things in bulk from them. but I also use P&H as they have some very nice heavy cardboard sheet cake boxes (some of my full cakes weigh a ton!) and they have 12x12x6 inch boxes which are hard to find locally for me!

Wish our Sams and BJs and Costcos was as good as your guys areas! They have NOTHING for cake decorating!
