It's been so cold, wet and WHITE in Birmingham this winter that we've been stuck in the house a lot. Some of you know I'm spending my gap year looking after my 2 year old sister so my mum could go back to work and it's been fun but on the days that we can't go to the park or shops I get stuck for ideas of things for her to do. We hit on cooking after she had a wicked time decorating biscuits at playgroup one day and now a couple of times a week we'll make some biscuits or fairy cakes. I started buying these Silver Balls from Super Cook when I was looking for things to decorate some Xmas biscuits we made and my sister loves using them now so I've been getting ...  Read the complete review

I have used the Supercook silver decoration balls lots of times and this is my review. I do a lot of baking and always have but always at Christmas time it is my busiest time for baking. The Supercook silver balls are an item I always keep in my baking box as they are very good for decorating items I have baked. The balls can be eaten and are perfectly safe.

They are tiny silver coloured balls that can be used to decorate items like cakes and cookies and they are very easy to use. There is not a ...  Read the complete review

My six year old kitchen assistant, who for some bizarre reason actually likes getting up super duper early and was in charge of the decorationg fest, decreed that all cakes would be pink and sparkly. The pink parts easy, add a bit of ...  Read the complete review

My ten year old granddaughter has inherited my love of baking, although being a typical girly girl she does tend to want to pretty everything up as much as possible. For this reason I always make sure I have a tub of Super Cook Silver Balls in the pantry as they are so versatile that she can add them to most things we decide to cook. These are basically tiny little sugar balls with no real flavour of their own, they are simply designed to be an edible decoration. You get absolutely loads of these little silver balls in each tub, I have tried other brands but always return to Super Cook as the texture and lack of flavour in the balls is perfect for the kind ...  Read the complete review

Dr Oetker / Super Cook's Silver Balls What are they? ************ Sugar silver balls used in decorating cakes, biscuits buns and desserts. Special Features? ************* These are tiny little silver balls made from sugar but covered with silver colouring.
