I used a 10 inch doily. Looks like I might be able to get 4 out of each even if I make it taller. The template is 8.5" from tip to tip and 2 inchs wide. I took a cupcake liner and cut off the bottom, slit the side and laid it down on paper. Very simple. But as I mentioned in my post in the forum I will probably try and make them a little taller for a more dramatic look. Enjoy. The ones on line are $1 each!
Perhaps not brilliant just cheap and always looking for ways to cut expenses but thank you all for the compliments. There are many styles and colors of doilies on-line. They may not be grease proof but if we watch how close to the edge we go with the frosting they may work as well. I would love to find some with kid's party themes like the expensive wrappers on-line so if anyone knows a source let me know. In the mean time I am going to be contacting some of the manufacturers to ask if they could do...
You are brilliant! I always see doilies in craft and dollar stores and think, they are so pretty, too bad I have no use for them. Oh my goodness, I have to go buy some doilies now. At the holidays they always have themed ones at party stores like hearts, clovers etc. I am so excited! Thank you for sharing.
