Not sure if they will allow Christmas cakes and puddings into the country. All to do with the fruit thats in them. Would be better to check first with AQIS.

Does the Rotary Club come round where you live? They bring Santa to the streets round us and besides distributing lollies to the kids and giving us all that Christmassy feeling, sell very nice Christmas cakes too!

I agree. We had one last year and it was very nice. The guys from the Rotary Club are really friendly too. I had a lovely chat with one of them while my daughter had some lollies from Santa.

You've not been in Oz very long then because they do that in America. Here they tend to cook prawns.

Thanks Moosh, oh remember them, just googled Lions Club Christmas cakes to get prices.. $13 for a 1.5 kg christmas cake!! and $11 for a pud..and the cake has a shelf life of 30 months!!! That is a bargain!

 

I got into cake decorating in my teens when dad would make me ice a lions cake for his work .. hated at the time but love it now.

 

And yes.. I will very much miss M&S this christmas..

 

Do we order through you? or direct from website?

 

Thanks
