Being an avid cake bake I am always on the look out for cake decorations and during a late night shopping trip with my mum yesterday I found the most perfect Christmas cake decorations - these cute marshmallow gingerbread men! I have 5 and can't wait for Christmas to arrive so I can bake a cake to sit them on! The question is, will we be able to bear eating them?

I just love Christmas - it is my favourite time of year. Last year with filming non stop until 18th December I really missed the run up to Christmas - all my Christmas shopping was done in one afternoon on Oxford Street when we had a few hours off from filming. So this year I am going to enjoy it twice as much! In fact, with my first Christmas purchases yesterday - perhaps the run up has already started. Is it too early for mulled wine I wonder?! Hope you all have a lovely weekend

    Is it too early for mulled wine, not if the evening is even slight cool. Go for it, I say!! Vida x

    If you make mulled wine, I will too! I love to get things going, and it makes the house smell heavenly. Christmas is my favorite time of year too, and I've been looking forward to it all year!

    Ohh Hannah. I love gingerbreadmen most of all. I have a big collection of them! Wherever did you find these lovely marshmallow ones???? Do tell as I won't rest until I can find them myself!

    Thanks Vida and Amanda for the encouragement - I will make some for our dinner party tonight!

    Marie they were from Boots - 99p each and they are on three for two! I also bought some lovely ghost pumpkins ones from John Lewis and BHS had some Hello Kitty ones that would be perfect for a little girls cake! Hope you find some!
