Hi everyone!
Thank you for visiting my cupcake album and I'm so sorry for the late reply. I didn't know there's a thread asking me question until someone pointed it out to me. I've been busy for the past few days and only today managed to find time to do other things than baking, frosting and packing 
The round tip that I'm using is 2A, you might try coupler if you can't find tip 2A. Bearing in mind that the baking cups that I'm using is only 5cm in diameter (sorry, don't know what's that in inches) so I don't quite like using the large rounded tips.
As for my baking cups, they are from a company called Solo cups who supply pleated drinking cups. I don't liase with them directly as I get my baking cups from my local bakery supplier. I believed you can try at ebay as I saw one seller who supplies Solo pleated cups.
Feel free in adding me to msn, pm's are always welcome
Trish, it's really you, my cupcake hero!! Thanks for all of the info, I think you have many fans on this site. Me for SURE.
1 inch = 2.55 centimeters so your cups would be roughly 2 inches. Thanks, I'm going to see what I get get in terms of Solo cups here in Canada. 
THANKS for replying, and especially for all of your amazing and inspiring work.
I'm fast becoming a cupcake fanatic, love to make them, decorate them eat them, give them..........

I love her cupcakes, they are so cute.
But just wondering if anyone has PM'd her about the star liners? I really don't want to bother her if someone else has already asked.
Thanks
If you can't get it there (States or Canada) and you really want them, I'll see what I can do about shipping them to you although I think the cost will be quite expensive.
I admired the styrofoam packaging as well, she's done a marvellous job. The styro inserts appear to be totally sizeable, so she can adjust for each order & cupcake size.
I can't take credit for this, it's all the hubby's idea. The styrofoam come in large one large size so he manually cut them to different length to suit the boxes that I have. I like to think he does this for love but I think it's more to shut me up from nagging *LOL*
Maybe this has been said already, but the cups with the straight sides can be a lot more difficult to get off if you have not left a margin of cupcake before the icing. Make sense?
I've experimented with them (photos in my gallery) because they have a straight side and I thought it'd be better for packing (and it was), but they are not easy to get off!

I have seen the cups at Michaels and Hobby Lobby. They are usually called nut cups. I have used them for cupcakes and they are hard to get into so with scissors I make a small slit so they are easy to tear. I do this after they are baked and before they are iced. I also saw once where a plastic fork was placed in the cupcake. I have even thought of placing those little wooden flat spoons that are used with the individual cups of ice cream. I thought those would be cute. Not the the easiest to eat cupcake with but cute! The presentation factor of the straight sided pleated cups is so much better than the old discolored liners. I think the slit is the answer to the problem and even maybe a couple would make them easy to locate.

alamo, it sounds like you have a new product, i wonder if solo has a clue 
Hi everyone!

Hi Trish! *waves franctically* ... fancy meeting you here! I found this place quite by accident and I've been hooked since!
To the other ladies.... I'm a newbie here, please be kind 
Trish is marvellously talented (as you already know) and always willing to share. We've borrowed ideas from each other many a time. I hope I can make a contribution here too.
Cheers!

Hi Trish! *waves franctically* ... fancy meeting you here!
Hi Ivy! *waves frantically back* Always a pleasure to see you.
About the solo cups, I don't think it was design for baking as the company manufactures drinking cups. I think that's why it's a tad difficult to open the cases but as everyone here agrees, they are so darn cute.
Dear Ivy,
Welcome to the forums! So glad to have you here!

Actually these souffle/nut cups are not difficult to manage. Just pull at one pleat near the top and the cuff will unfold quite easily. I did it with no problems but when I experimented on my friends, that was some task! You can read what happened here... http://d-cupcakes.blogspot.com/2006/11/souffle-cups-not-so-idiot-proof.html
And thank you all for the warm welcome!
Ivy
Ivy, your blogspot/photos are terrific.
I love the name D Cup Cakes, love it love it. Hope business is going well for you.
The story of trying to 'teach' people how to open the pleated cup is hilarious. I can imagine my frustration with not being able to open a CUPCAKE, when it looks SO good!!
