I've been tasked with finding a Stoke birthday cake for my lad who's 8 in a couple of weeks. ASDA are not allowed to print any SCFC brand so that's my cheap idea buggered. I'd be grateful for ideas/recommendations.
Not related but can you laser print marzipan

Try the eBay idea. Done summat like that from eBay before but a diffreent picture for my sisters 6th bday. Seemed pretty easy. Think mine was around £4.50 altogether??? It's easier too!

Thanks folks, much appreciated. You'd think the club shop would sell something. £28 for a cake, value £45  I might start a sweat shop filled with kidnapped WI members. I'll try fleaBAY today or may nip down Longton market. Is that open every day? |

We got one for my cousin last year. Just texted my old man to see where he got it from and I will post back on here when he is on his dinner.

How about:
Couple of packs of rolling icing, some red food colouring. Buy a basic sponge cake (square) and cut strips of icing about 2" thick. Put the stripes on the cake, then put on a couple of the little plastic footballers. Not the badge, but still a red and white striped caked and a hell of a lot cheaper.

Thanks Miss Piggy, great idea. All suggestions welcome. The hairy baker approach had crossed my mind.
