My daughter is looking for an outlet for Moomin cup cake cases. Does anyone have a clue where she can buy them. My DGD is 1 in July and shares her name with the author of Moomin. We call her our little Moomin. I am making a Moomin birthday cake but we do need the cup cake cases. Any ideas.

Can't help I'm afraid but just wanted to say what a lovely name for your DGD!
I love TJ's adult stories. And the Moomins are special. smile

DS2 has a bull terrier and he calls her Moomin. It isn't her name, just a 'pet' name.
He also refers to her as 'the furry grandchild', she is a child substitute at the moment. He also calls her Billums, which is what he always called the bull terrier we had when he was a child.
