    I'm on an English Facebook craft group (Mixed Up Craft), and the group owner, Samantha, loves a British made treat called Tunnock's Tea Cakes, which are not widely available here. We do have our own version - Arnott's "Royals" biscuits, but the Tunnocks ones are a bit bigger, and individually wrapped.

   Well, Aldi got some in so I thought I'd get a box and see what all the fuss is about. Tried one - nah, not my cup of tea, took 2 small bites and the rest of it went in the bin. Too sweet and too much marshmallow for me. So I decided to give the other 5 to some friends. and of course had to make boxes to hold them. May as well make them look pretty.

   I made this pretty box today for a friends birthday. It's not until July, but no point waiting until the last minute. I got the idea from Linda Parker, an English YouTuber I follow. I have used her basic sizing, but altered the trays a little so I could get 3 full size ones to fit, whereas she has 2 plus a shallow one. I love it in this beautiful Kaszazz paper.
