Sambellina's new range of paper plates and cups are just gorgeous and have arrived at LilyBel Studio!. The range includes new colours in their polka dot pattern and new luscious striped plates with matching cups. I've been dying to get my hands on these, as they're a perfect addition to our current range of tableware and compliment our 9 themes beautifully.

In the polka dot range choose from light pink and white polka dot, hot pink and white polka dot, white and black polka dot, lime and white polka dot and red and white polka dot. In the striped range choose from light pink and white stripe, or red and white stripe. We are retailing all the plates and cups in convenient packs of 12, as well offering you the flexibility of purchasing the plates and cups individually. This way you can purchase the exact amount you need and also have the opportunity to mix and match the colour choices on your party table.

New Additions To Our Bakers Twine Range
Image from LilyBel Studio
Our range of bakers twine has been proving popular so I've decided to add 2 new choices into the mix. 'Charcoal' is a bold black and white colour way (it reminds me of licorice) and 'Blossom' is a very light and soft pink and white colour way (it reminds me of bubblegum...why do I associate everything with food?!). These twines are 100% cotton and are as super soft to touch as our other colours.

I'm looking forward to mixing the charcoal with the peapod green for our 'It's a Jungle Out There' theme and also mixing the charcoal with the pink sorbet for our 'Ooh La La' theme. The blossom pink would look lovely mixed with the pink sorbet for our 'Little Cupcake' theme, or the blossom pink mixed with the lilac for our 'Pirouette' and 'Once Upon a Time' themes...choices, choices!!

Beautiful Rose Cake...

I discovered this beautiful rose cake tutorial and had to share, as not only does it look divine but it's so easy to do! If you have ever created buttercream swirls on top of cupcakes then you could easily do this, it simply takes the right icing tip and a icing bag.

This tutorial is just for creating the rose icing but 'i am baker' will be posting another tutorial soon for the yummy neopolitan cake hiding under the roses. If you'd like to read the tutorial for the easy 'how to' then simply go to http://iammommy.typepad.com/i_am_baker/


How perfect would this cake be for a afternoon tea of garden party?!

Belli Bands...The Perfect Finishing Touch To Your Party Table
Image from LilyBel Studio
New to LilyBel Studio are our belli bands, a fantastic and versatile product that allows you to carry your theme throughout your party table, with gorgeous patterns and colours. Belli bands are long narrow strips of paper made from the same designs as our table runners and they have a multitude of uses!
Choose the belli band that co ordinates with your table runner and use it to wrap around noodle boxes or jelly pails, or line your platters and serving ware with it. The belli band strips make perfect drink bottle labels so you can personalise bottles for each little guest and they look gorgeous wrapped around candy bars too.
                                                                     
             
Originally designed to make wrapped gifts look even more beautiful, these belli bands are also perfect for gift wrapping. Simply wrap your gift and then wrap a co ordinating strip of belli band over the top...you're really only limited by your imagination!     
           Belli bands are available at LilyBel Studio in 4 colours and patterns, pink and white polka dot, pink and white stripe, cow print and red and white polka dot. Each belli band is 1 metre long, 90mm wide and retails at LilyBel Studio for only .50c metre.

      Patterned Paper Drinking Straws - Now In Stock!
Image from LilyBel Studio
I've been eyeing up these gorgeous patterned paper, drinking straws for awhile and after test driving them at my girls recent birthday party, I'm very pleased to say that they're now in stock at LilyBel Studio. They're the perfect way to add a fun, finishing touch to your party table, especially as our range includes polka dots and stripes which is my favourite combination of patterns.
Image from LilyBel Studio
Our straws are available in the following 9 colours and patterns, so there's something to suit every theme!
Light pink and white stripe, light pink and white polka dot, hot pink and white stripe, purple and white stripe, black and white stripe, black and white polka dot, red and white stripe, red and white polka dot, blue and white stripe and lime and white stripe.

Each colour and pattern is available in individual packs of 12, but we also stock mixed packs of 12 so you can have the variety of 2 co ordinating colours in one pack, to add even more fun to your party! The straws are made in the US from FDA approved paper and ink, are biodegradable and a 12 pack retails at LilyBel Studio for $5.75.
These look great in any party cup but as I'm into details, I think they look especially divine in little bottles of coloured lemonade or milk, lined up on a party table. Unfortunately I can't take the credit for the brilliant idea of using little glass bottles this way, as the idea has been around for sometime now, featuring on party sites in both the US and Australia.

The bottles I have used with the straws for our photographs are from the Santa Vittoria range of fruit nectars. Simply empty the fruit nectar (that's not hard as these nectars are yummy..I highly recommend the pear) from each bottle, remove the label, wash thoroughly and voila! one very cute, styley (and reusable) bottle ready to be filled with your party drink of choice and of course, one of our patterned paper straws.
