Want to wrap brownies in cellophane as Xmas gifts
Where can I buy cellophane and other bits to make this Christmassy?
We're kind of brassic this Christmas, my daughter and I have decided to make brownies as gifts for friends and colleagues. We thought we would wrap it in cellophane, I just don't know how to go about it. Help! Please.

You can buy the cellophane bags from places like Lakeland, or have a look on eBay? I've got a cake accessories shop near me and they sell them too, do you have anything like that near you?

I bought some bags and a roll of printed celowrap (has snowflakes on it, looks really pretty) from Ebay. Really cheap and there was a big selection.
Also got some ribbon to tie them with. |

You can get cellophane from a floristry shop - they sell it by the metre.

I ended Googling and found a cake and craft shop. I've ordered some, it cost just over £2 for 10 sparkly stars cellophane bags, with postage, just over £7!!
![]() But time is of the essence as we break up next Friday. Thanks for all your replies, much appreciated

I bought some cellophane bags from Sainsburys, not sure on the size as I haven't opened them but I am wanting to put christmas bon bon type things in them. A pack of 10 for £2.99. They had a silver base with silver ribbon to tie them.
Will see if I can find a link ![]() http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/grocerie...=1291648511538 e2a:added link |

I was going to do cupcakes and for couples, ie my parents, I was going to do a box of 4.
I decided to make loads of bons bons instead ad go for 5 or 6 depending on how many I can make

I usually get a roll of cellophane from Hobbycraft and some ribbon or raffia.
Pop the cookies in the bottom middle of a piece, gather it up at the top, tie the ribbon round and pop on a homemade label. Normally costs around £4 for the cellophane and ribbon. Got so many to make for friends before xmas as its easier than doing cards, but I haven't even started. Need to get to bloody hobbycraft asap |

Well, brownies were made last night, placed in cellophane bags, with ribbon and Christmas tags! They were given out today...
They were a hit!
